Yesterday Jones gave me an all green day - first time ever for that!

I have notice that some nights he wakes me about 4 am, and I have just petted him and gone back to sleep. I think I need to get up and test him...those are the mornings with higher AMPS.

We have our IM appointment on Wednesday.

In my attempt to get him to eat more, I went shopping on the weekend and picked up some different type of foods after much research. We have tried the Natural Balance Venison & Pea - high carb! He eats a few bites but not totally into it. I also picked up the Wild Calling Triple Delight, Alligator and Duck. He likes the Triple Delight so far. I have noticed if I put a couple tsp of hot water and mix it up he seems to like the food better (it stinks!). I have also added some crumpled up Whiskas on the food - I know high carb but would like him to eat.

I need him to eat about 200-220 calories a day for his optimal weight. Will keep working on it, started a new worksheet to track calories as well as what he seems to eat and what he doesn't. I did weigh him on the weekend - small drop but he is holding consistent over the last two month 4.4Kgs to 4.5kgs. He needs some fat on his bones - he doesn't have any. Not sure if that is due to the IBD or the FD or combination of both. See what the IM thinks.

Safe surfing to all the kitties.
 
Aurora loves the wild calling triple delight as well! I find these dry out pretty quickly if they don't eat it all right away. Inland waters and the salmon one are also a favorite.

Have you tried the Alligator? I actually was looking for the bison one and couldn't find it.
 
No haven't tried the alligator
They also really like the Trottin Tommy and the Cabin Fever.

Good luck with the IM vetty appointment tomorrow. I hope it's someone you can work with. BTW, Jones name is missing on the subject line.

It wouldn't hurt to test when you get those middle of the night wake up calls. All data is good.

Oops on the name. I hope so too. It will be nice to get a second opinion on things/different perspective.

It will hurt...but yes - all data is good data and I don't have a lot in that time slot due to the pred pushing him up...but I am wondering if something has changed.
