sigh. I've been noticing lately that he's more thirsty than maybe usual.. I haven't been sure why. thought maybe it was too many freeze dried treat, that seemed to help, but he's now peeing a bit more frequently than usual (usually goes morning and night.. now goes in-between a bit too..) his numbers have been really ok I'm not sure that it (?)..

he got 1/2 a unit less this morning cause he wasn't eating well (usual) ~ he ate, thankfully, but idk.. didn't want to eat much. so I gave a smaller dose.. 4.5 U.. got him to eat more after, he ate for me , and am going to try giving more periodically.. but this all is exhausting. esp for him..

I don't understand.. it's just always something. and his numbers have been lovely. having to fight em a little too.. I think he was accidentally getting a little less than dose.. but was going to go right back this morning. guess not........

thinking of taking to the vet, at least calling.. I don't get it.

Awww, Pudge. Do you have recent labwork? Can you fill in the spreadsheet with his lab values so someone can take a look? That would be helpful to try to determine if something is going on (kidney values? especially).
Can't hurt to talk to the vet to see what they think since he was recently seen in their office.

I hope he continues to eat well, sending lots of

How long has this been going on?

I found that Bandit used to be more thirsty in high numbers as well as low numbers (limes).

…. He ate for me eventually, and well, but i feel weird risking that unless i can see he can eat around shot time.. ..

ooh! how to do this? (he got blood done in Aug.. kidney values ok .. his blood looked quite well..)

hes eating a bit better now.

ty for saying!! i notice that too w him.. he’s thirsty at lower numbers also sometimes.. and i’d say the past few days, mire thirsty last few weeks maybe..

(w the Amlodipine, he gets more treats than before.. cuz the tablet gets hid in those.. and sometimes it falls out, gotta redo again.. )

I've noticed the same thing, too. Ivy drinks more in high number and lower ones, too.

Do you mean how to put the data in spreadsheet? If so, there's a tab called LABS (just open that tab and input the data manually).
I do that each time we get new labs (you can look at Ivy's Labs tab).
