Good morning, LL! We're still bouncing today, but I'm expecting that to clear today, if Chyna does like she has been. I hope she doesn't drop too low while I'm at work...

Thanks for visiting us last night, Mariko and Rebekah, and for your encouragement :-D Yesterday: Chyna 2/5

Well, I'm back to work, neck is good, Chyna is purring and eating, and doing all her usual Ps. :cool:

I'm a little frustrated as I special ordered our Ziwipeak Lamb through a local store a few weeks ago, and I called Tuesday to see when it may be coming as I am down to ONE CAN today. No call back. I started supplementing the Natures Variety Lamb that has a bit higher phos that I bought 3 cans of online "in case" and I'm glad I did! So I have one can of each left...argh I hate being this low :evil: . I wish I lived in a bigger city at times like this with more specialty stores for cat food! I ordered some online yesterday but it will take at least a few days to get here and the weekend will bump it to next week...

I'm going to GO there today at lunch if I have time or after work and find out, maybe I can find something. I guess I should have stuck to ordering it online myself, it's free shipping. They carry NV canned there, but not the lamb that I've seen so I'm not sure what to do! I think they have salmon, pork, and duck...has anyone fed the pork? Or know the phos/carbs? I can try duck again but it has turkey liver in it and I don't know if Chyna is allergic to turkey or just chicken. I have some NV raw lamb that I stopped with the cartrophen to see what she was puking from, so I can start that again but still need to do little bits at a time...and only for the meals I'm home :roll:

I do have a row of fuds that are in the cupboard from before her allergy testing that may be ok: Cowboy Cookout (spikes BG), Steak Frites (I think it spikes BG), BG Beef (she hates it), Evo Duck (higher carb-5), NV Duck (has turkey liver), Wellness Beef & Salmon (fish and haven't tried it), BFF Tuna (fish again)...I don't want to give her the poops...

Anyways, sorry to babble on! I hope you all have a good day!

Hi Rachel,
I'm glad Chyna is happy & eating!!! The best combination!
I hope you get the Ziwipeak you ordered today!
I know it's really frustrating when you are low on food they like.
I think it's worth trying turkey. Different protein, so not necessarily causes allergic reaction to cats allergic to chicken, I think.
Or what about NV Duck? It's a little higher in fat, but low in carb & phos.
Isn't it hard to find good foods for cats with multiple issues?
Lucy has food allergy too, plus FD, IBD and CKD. And raw food didn't agree with her although she loved it.
Good luck finding food!!
 
Re: 2/6 Chyna AMPS 383

Thanks Mariko! OH, it's so frustrating! I know many of you know! Before Dx on dry she ate the dry prescribed hypoallergenic duck/pea. When we switched to wet, she ate Evo chicken and turkey, and Wellness chicken, and Wellness Turkey (which has chicken in it). Then her allergies went nutso. I also had Wellness Core Beef/Venison/Lamb that also has chicken in it (argh). I haven't tried plain Turkey since we did the "one protein" lamb for 3 months, as I was scared to but I do have 1 can of Merrick BG Turkey waiting for me to experiment! She has had the NV Duck before and I will probably try that one again next if the fuds are MIA. UGH. I need to own a jet plane so I can run to Edmonton or Vancouver for fuds :lol:
 
Re: 2/6 Chyna AMPS 383

and to come visit Chyna's aunties in the states! :lol: :lol:
Good luck with the fuds, hope you get a call from the store today! Very frustrating when they don't follow through :evil:
Cleo will eat the lamb ZP with some fortiflora on top. But, when she gets hungry enough, she will eat it plain :lol: I like it because of it's numbers, of course, but also because civvies like it also :-D Cleo also will eat the NV Duck. I just ordered a case of it, should be here tomorrow.
Glad your neck is better and Chyna is feeling so good! Hope she surfs safely into some lower numbers :-D
 
Re: 2/6 Chyna AMPS 383

I'm glad your neck feels better today. I hope you get your order in today. I hate getting low on cat food. I hope Chyna clears the bounce today.
 
Re: 2/6 Chyna AMPS 383

Ahhh...the fuds hunt. And you have the added joy of allergies....many hugs for that one. I hope you track down what you need. Have a great day, Rachel!!

PS - I finished my first round of drywall taping. It got easier as I worked my way around the room, and I actually found it kinda fun! But, I also like to paint. And, in ways, it is similar to techniques in both painting and in some of the jewelry components I make.
 
Re: 2/6 Chyna AMPS 383

So glad your neck is feeling better. Break that bounce Chyna! Oh no on the fuds. That must be a pain in the rear. I am lucky that T will only eat FF chicken classic and wants nothing to do with anything else. Have a great day Rachel!
 
Re: 2/6 Chyna AMPS 383

Hi Rachel:

I'm glad your neck feels better and that Chyna is happy and eating. She doesn't worry about whether you have more fuds - she knows the fuds fairy will deliver! :lol:

I get so frustrated trying to keep ahead of my cats' changing tastes (they like this one today but not tomorrow, or this cat loves it but this cat won't touch it). I can't imagine throwing food allergies in there on top of that, plus needing to keep it low carb and low phos. @-) You have my sympathy.

I hope Chyna clears that bounce soon and surfs in some pretty numbers for you. Have a great day!
 
Re: 2/6 Chyna AMPS 383 +6 344

Thanks for visiting! Lunchtime showed we are still up in the bounce...but I did stop by the cat food store, and their order was just getting dropped off on a pallet. So I got my fuds! Well, Chynas fuds :lol: Phew.

She'd forgotten "a step" in ordering when I'd asked for it the first time :roll: So she ordered an extra two cases and is holding it in the back for my next trip. And I have enough "store points" that my next purchase is 10% off :cool: .

Hi Jane, thanks. I'd love to go visit some of the LL aunties! I'm glad the civvies at least like the fuds for you :-D
Carla, thank you. No clearing yet, but hopefully at PMPS! ;-)
Hey Amy, thanks, we gots fuds, yay! I'm glad you are enjoying the taping :razz: I hate painting unless it's a new house, then there is nothing to go around :lol:
Thanks Melissa, it is a pain in the butt. I wish we had more of a selection here...but it's here, so I'm good now :smile:
Hi Tricia! Yep, Chyna knows the fuds will show...no worries for her ;-) No pretty numbers yet, unless you count pink ohmygod_smile :lol:

Oh, I'm so relieved the fuds are here! And my neck feels so much better today. And tomorrow is Friday :-D Yay!
 
Re: 2/6 Chyna AMPS 383 +6 344

WOOT!! So glad the fuds arrived! My local pet food store is holding back an extra case of kangaroo for me since the manufacturer has been out and shorted us a couple of times. It's nice when the local business go out of their way and do that - and the 10% off. :cool: :cool:

Keep easing down Chyna - how about a sunny yellow number for dinner time?
 
Hi Wendy! As irritated as I was that she forgot to order fuds...it is nice when she finally did after I phoned again that she ordered extra to keep on hand. I'm just glad they are here! ;-)

The stupid city plowed the road today and scraped all the big ice chunks onto a big windrow 3ft wide/2ft high at the end of my driveway, and cleared everyone elses, how lucky was I to get missed :roll: . So that's what I was doing tonight, ice picking it into pieces and shovelling it all off. I had to get my car into the driveway to plug in as we're expecting -30C overnight...so much for the chiro visit :evil: Yeah, that made me really PO'd.

I don't know what's up with a dosecrease that turned into flat pink cat... ohmygod_smile . But I'm going to bed, I'm pooped and grouchy. Maybe sleep will help. Night night, LL.
