This was expected from last night's deep dive. Glad it was a short dive. She was only on that dose for 4 cycles. She earned a reducie.

I found a few irritations on back of her neck and under chin. Hard to see with all her fur. Wondering if it's a food allergy or a skin condition that might have something to do with the possible stud tail. Making my list of questions for when we visit vet next week.

Since its raining with possible storms today. I will finally get a wall painted that's been 2 years in the making.
 
Pink preshots don’t seem to stop her from getting to where she wants to go. Glad it was a short PJ party. I didn’t know she had a stud tail, do you think she was born that way or something happen to it?

If I lived closer, I’d come help you. I love painting walls (hate painting ceilings though, it’s a pain in the neck, literally).

Stud tail is not a deformity. It's a condition. From my understanding it can be from glands or a skin infection/irritation. The tail has a waxy build up and even with washing and combing it keeps returning. She had it since she got here. The hope was to see if better nutrition and regular food helped. It is less but still present. At first I was concerned it was something that was contagious to my others but vet said no and to wait until she was settled in with better food and scheduled meals. Next week it's an issue to address again.

Painting, I love to paint and like you hate the ceilings. The area I'm doing is small. It's around a closet door. It had prepapered paneling before and it was removed about 2 yrs ago. Try everything to get the adhesive off the wall. The wall itself is in good shape. Instead of replacing wall with new drywall and since the adjoining header to living room was replaced with drywall and painted and looks good. My thought was why not joint compound it all and just paint. Had to wait for hubby to put on the compound and sand,he finally did after 2 yrs. Finally not looking at a horrible shade of yellow wall with dried adhesive splotches. There is still an adjoining wall that's part of the kitchen with the prepapered paneling which has some of the paper melted from the heat, but that will come down when we gut the kitchen. I can't wait until the kitchen gets done. Previous owner put in wall to wall carpet and it's a mess. I'm cleaning it constantly from cat spit and hubby dropping food all over it. I understand why they carpeted because floors are so cold here in the winter and basement/garage are underneath but it's horrible. Been thinking of flooring options. Husband wants to stick with carpet but not me, not in kitchen.
 
Marje is working on my ss, but it's even puzzling to her. In Google drive it's perfect. Why on fdmb it isn't is anyone's guess.
 
One of my young ones breaks out on her lip. I took her to the vet after it came and left several times but had to wait a week so it was almost gone by then and he only saw normal cells under the microscope. He asked if she had plastic food or water bowls which she doesn’t have. So he said it’s most likely she was allergic to a protein. At this point I think she’s allergic to chicken definitely, turkey seemed to work until it didn’t, beef, and now I’ve tried pork and she still has it. It’s called eosinophil granuloa. He said it can happen anywhere on the body :arghh: I’m not sure what I’m going to do. I hope it’s not Olive’s problem.

Congrats on the reduction.
 
She sure can clear a bounce fast!

Congrats on the reduction!

Hold out for no carpeting in the kitchen. Very impractical, mold trap.

Don't think her bounce is done yet. Isn't the previous dose still active? Probably some ndw tomorrow I'm thinking.

T-storms are 5 hrs late. Hoping not to lose power.

It can, but we don't usually recommend back to back reductions that quickly....but Love is making her own rules lately!!

I think you could wait until morning to decide....if she's running a little higher, stay with the 6U....if she's running a little low, go ahead and reduce to 5.5

You can always go back up if you need to
 
Thanks, she will probably bounce so I will shoot through it maybe. But then again she cleared the last one in 7 hrs.
 
At some point, shooting through the bounce no longer becomes a safe option, such as when kitty is clearing bounces too fast. With Olive on a higher dose (for the moment), I'd be even more cautious about shooting through the bounce.

When high dose kitties are coming down scale fast, I ignore the back to back reductions rule. You can always take her back up if you need to. Olive seems to be in a hurry. :)
