Good Morning LL! I wimped out last night because Tess's numbers were dropping, but then she stalled out. Sooooo, I meant that threat, Tess. She got an extra drop this morning.

But things are looking up, John is home (daddylap already claimed), the marine layer is back so it should be much cooler today. Hopefully our routine will settle and things get back to normal. AND I found freeze dried chicken again at Petsmart, it's called Simply Nourish. Still in the dog aisle, single ingredient chicken (be careful there is a chicken and sweet potato also!), 5oz package for $9. I guess they were just changing brands or maybe had a lot of complaints about discontinuing it.

Re: 10/3 Tess AMPS~328 increase

Hi guys .. I was going to comment and say that those were some high numbers for tess, then I got to her PMPS stated above and thought, dang, that is the highest I've ever seen a cat :lol: I'm sure that's a typo, right?? Glad you found the chicken treats, so many cats love those things .. have a great day guys!
 
Re: 10/3 Tess AMPS~328 increase

Good luck on the increase and glad John is home. Devon is right, that PMPS above can't be right, Ann! I am glad I am not the only making typos! :lol: Have a nice day. How is DM coming along now that it's been a few days. Hope things are better.

I guess we'll be in for a few days of NDW, but it is still depressing. Off to see DM and then to class.
 
Re: 10/3 Tess AMPS~328 increase

Hi Ann, Tess, John, (and welcome home, John!)

Good luck on the increase. Sounds like a good idea. You really want to get her back to her good cycles. Thanks for the news about freeze-dried chicken at Petsmart. Is it made in the USA? (I have heard bad things about Chinese freeze-dried treats.) I just started to order the Whole Life freeze-dried chicken online (Petfood direct); it is more expensive than the kind you just got at Petsmart, but is good quality.

Ann, I see that you give Tess Pet Dophilus. Is that the Jarrow Formulas Pet Dophilus? I see maltodextrin at the top of the "other ingredients" list. Has this been a problem with regard to Tess's bgs? If you use a different brand, which one do you use? I am thinking of giving Rusty a pro-biotic supplement, just to keep his intestinal tract healthy.

Have a lovely day. I'm glad that your heat wave is over.

Ella & Rusty

p.s. How is your DM doing? I hope she's getting adjusted.

Good luck on the increase! I hope it does the trick. At least you can go spend time with DM without worrying about Tess. Have a great day Ann!!

NDW. yuck. Hope Tess dismisses it quickly.

Our petsmart has a freeze dried salmon in a white plastic tub by Beefeaters Natures One in the cat treat section.
Shadow loves it crumbled on food when she's not quite inspired to finish her fuds. It has really big pieces in it and I break them down smaller and use all the crumbs for when she needs inspiration.
I think they had another flavor too. And of course they have the PureBites turkey ( she won't eat the chicken anymore, apparently the turkey has more flavor)
Both of these products are from USA. The only purebites treats that aren't USA are the shrimp.

Prayers for your mothers adjusting to her new digs.

Oh, NDW go away! Thanks for the reference in Simply PureBites Turkey - we'll check it out.

Leo wholeheartedly endorses this product. It is often a post-test treat. Sometimes I give him one of the big pieces and he goes to town on the whole thing at once!

Hope the extra juice helps and Tess settles down to nicer numbers. Enjoy your evening!

Patience Pants! Patience Pants! Patience Pants! Patience Pants!

thanks for stopping in, she finally seems to be holding steady.

Ella , yes the FD chicken is made in USA. I seems to be about the same consistency as the Prime bites that PetSmart used to carry. Yes the Petdophilus is Jarrow. I've been giving it to Tess for 6 months, usually w/ her raw food. I know now that was very low carb, but she's had periods of very nice numbers during that time. It was recommended by one of the vets at the clinic. There was another one I was looking at, I need to remember where I saw it and get back to you.

Rhiannon, Tess's all time favorite treat is definitely the FD duck breast. Even I think that one smells good. The turkey hearts are a hit too.

DM is still pretty unhappy about the situation. I've been going over at least every other day and she is very quiet and sad.
