What is that bright light in the sky? Is it....could it be....something called THE SUN? :bighug:

Good morning!
Sorry, couldn't resist. Haven't seen the sun for a week!
AMPS 130 shooting 1F

Boomer left a bit of each overnight meal. He didn't wake me up at any of the mealtimes however at one point when he came btb he decided to give me a kiss :rolleyes::kiss: Ah well there are worse ways to wake up :rolleyes:

Allen had to fast overnight, has just had his pill and he'll get to eat in 2 hours.

DH and I have decided to try to get Boomer back on fancy feast. He's still picky about the other foods and to be honest, we tracked last week how many cans of food we go through for both boys and it looks like we're spending around $75 per week for food. Curious as to what the costs of the Wellness, Purrfect Bistro, Fowl Ball are in the US.....in Canada the Wellness and Purrfect Bistro are around $2.50-$2.75 each. The small can of Fowl Ball is around $1.79. Unfortunately there doesn't seem to be any Fancy Feast varieties that are low enough in phosphorous for Allen (and so far Dr Larry has refused to give us a p binder...may have to work on that). And of course we still need some food that both kitties can/will eat when we have to be away for the day.

On Boomer's menu today: AMPS FF cod sole and shrimp & Purrfect Bistro turkey pate, +3 turkey pate, +6 chicken pate and fowl ball, +9 cod sole and shrimp and turkey pate

ETA: Question.....would a probiotic help Allen poop....sometimes he barfs up the lactulose and he's really not liking the pumpkin very much (although I'm still trying). And the clearlax isn't helping him enough.
 
Yay for sun and sweet Boomer kisses! :cat:

Good luck on the food switch. I hope your vet will give you a phosphorus binder for Allen. :bighug:
 
Probiotics are worth a try just not sure which one. Good boy Boomer for letting mama bean sleep...almost :kiss:

Food costs can get so ridiculous. Doodles was about $600 a month for the Ziwi Peak since he wouldn't eat left overs or more than 1/2-1oz at a time. I opened 6 cans a day and most went in the trash:arghh:. I have to get a job soon to replenish the funds:banghead:

Enjoy the sunshine . It was 100 here yesterday and today's high is only 70...crazy weather but we'll take it!

BTW probiotics take time to work but usually do.
 
I hope you can work out the food situation. I wish everything wasn't so expensive. I think probiotics are supposed to keep them moving regularly. I've heard Saccharomyces Boulardii mentioned as a good one.
 
PMPS 97 :D shooting 1F
And he earned himself another 2 helpings of fancy feast lol
On the menu tonight: PMPS FF cod sole and shrimp and chicken pate, +3 chicken pate and fowl ball, +6 ff cod sole and shrimp and chicken pate, +9 chicken pate and fowl ball
