Well, of course since we talked yesterday about AM cycles being way higher... he decided to throw me a lower PS this morning.
Normally I wouldn't be concerned... except that when I got up for work (at +1) I saw vomit on the floor. 3 piles actually - containing lots of food. And what I later determined to be a garbage bag handle. 
So... given the evidence it had to come from either Tarzan or Tink since they're the ones with plastic-eating issues... and Tarzan never pukes... so...
SO I retested just shy of +2 and he was down just a smidge. Knowing he vomited his first meal though, I gave him another at +2. Loaded the feeder for +2.5, +3.5,, +4.5 & +5.5. Probably overkill... but he does like to dive low when he starts out in blue - and since I can't be home... I figure better safe than sorry. I did test again at +2.5, RIGHT after he ate and he was only down about 10 more points... so I'm HOPING he'll have a nice surf today.
You'd THINK by now the negative reinforcement of "eating bag handles = vomit" would have him trained to NOT eat plastic bag handles. I had to help him expel a big ol' chunk of dog-toy-fluff the other day too - out the other end. He'd gotten it part way out, but there was about 3" of it hangin' on him and he was freaking out about it. I know better than to pull hard, so just took off what I could and he got the rest out... but good grief! STOP EATING CRAP THAT AINT FOOD!!!!
