I got a question, I came home just 30 minutes ago and saw that Baco hasn't really eaten from her raw food today (that's for the first time) but she doesn't like this flavor (and I forgot to NOT order it!
).
She ate 10 grams (0,35oz) I just put her food on the scale so I could see.
she doesn’t get insulin anymore since 11 days now but I’m concerned about the not eating part today.
I don’t want to give her Minnie’s food (6.5%carbs) because maybe Mr. P can’t handle it and then we get high numbers again.
Should I just wait until 6PM? It’s almost 4PM right now so in 2 hours she gets her PMPS check and her food, or would you say, give Minnie’s food instead (just a little bit)?
I’ve got some other flavor out of the freezer just now so it can thaw for 2 hours now and she can eat that flavor at PM time.
I checked her BG but it was okay, it’s 86 +8.
@Robin&BB @Rachel or someone else who can help me with this question?

I wouldn't give her any of Minnie's food, Ruby. Just wait; she's not getting dosed right now, so it's no big deal. Sometimes a kitty's appetite is just a little off. I'm dealing with that with Bat-Bat lately; I think it's the hot weather here. But it can happen for any reason. I wouldn't worry about it unless she starts refusing to eat for, like, 2-3 mealtimes in a row.

All right, Baco! One day closer!!
Ruby, I know Robin already got your question, but I wanted to chime in and say it's nothing to worry about. I don't worry (much) about mine unless they refuse to eat for a few meals. Tigress is wary of food that I don't feed as often. She likes her one flavor of food, but I like to mix it up occasionally with a different flavor. She often won't eat that for a few hours after I put it down. Since you don't have insulin to give, not eating much for a meal is all right. It's when you are getting to 2 or 3 meals that you start to worry.

I think I was still thinking like a diabetic mommie who has to give insulin.. Hahaha! So that's why I asked about the food. I'm just scared that when monday has passed and she is . . . 
Than I really want to sleep in a little more. But isn't it problem that her food will be given on different times then? So for example, I sleep in (just like now) untill 9:15AM, and I will give her food in a couple of minutes. And then later I will give her second meal at 7PM (or whenever I feel like it due to plans I've got).. Does she still need to be on a strikt patern when it comes to giving food?
Because I feel like I should do that, because she is used to it and maybe because of me being strikt is also a reason she got almost OTJ... Or is that just a bunch of bullsh*t? Hahah
