Not sure Bama feels well this morning. He didn't get out of his bed for tests or snacks last night until PM+9 when he ate pretty well, had a pee and a poop, so maybe he's not hungry this morning. Seems to have stopped dropping so maybe he'll hang here in the low 100s or drop a little bit and surf the upper greens. Will have to keep an eye on him in between meal preps and company arrivals. Such is life in these days of FD and CKD. Holding off on any meds for right now but have some gelcaps with Ondansetron and Famotidine ready if needed.

I hope Bama is feeling okay and he will eat today when you need him to. I hope he surfs safely. Sending prayers.

Thanks, Carla. Have a good Christmas Eve and Christmas Day.

So much for hanging around in the 100s. Is he eating okay this morning?

 

[Dyana]

Surf nicely, Bama.

Sending eating and feel better vines.

Not as well as I would like so I dosed him just now with an Ondansetron/Famotidine gelcap and added Squeeze-Up to his food. Also syringed him some water. Will check him again in about an hour. I would like to not have to give him Karo just yet. If he would settle and surf in the 70s, I would be ok with that.

He's holding steady @ 79 @ +3.5. Did not feed this time. He is napping in his bed in a box where it is dark and warm. Don't know how much he slept last night as he seemed to always be awake when I went in his room even though he didn't get up. Will check again in an hour. Probably don't need to feed again for couple hours unless he starts dropping. Maybe he'll surf here nicely in the upper 70s.

 

[Bandit's Mom]

Nice surf. I had begun to think the dose was not working for him.

Yeah, me, too. Was almost wishing I had increased dose a few days ago. Now glad I didn't. Will wait to see if he bounces from being green.

 

[Bama Kitty Mom (GA)]

He got up when I went in to test and seemed like he wanted to eat so I fed him. Could have been nauseous earlier and the Ondansetron handled it, I don't know. This is all play it by ear, one hour at a time sometimes. May not start to rise until +9 or +10. Seems safe enough now. Had been 2 hours since he ate so maybe he'll hold steady or, at least, not go below 70. Will keep checking him.

 

[Bandit's Mom]

Possibly. I guess it's too much effort to keep him on it twice a day? As in, difficult to pill him?

He is surfing nicely so far.

I'm just wondering if I need to always medicate him if he is eating well on his own.

Hmmm...point. Probably not.
