After seeing a few OTJ updates posted today, I thought I'd join in.
Ruby is now OTJ for 9 weeks. I tested her last 1 week ago and she was 115 on the Alpha. She's hit 130 a couple of times before that but for the most part, is staying closer to 100. I keep her spreadsheet up to date still (just the Alpha tab, not the Relion one). Its still really tough to not test her! I keep her on a tight 6am/6pm feeding schedule.
She's lost about 2 lbs from the 14lbs she was at her diagnosis at Christmas. And the energy! Its crazy! She's running around and playing, all full crazies. She has a touch of constipation every few of weeks, but a sprinkle of miralax (maybe 1/16th of a teaspoon) on a couple of meals takes care of it. This had never come up before the switch to wet food, so I'm thinking it's connected to the diet change?
She's still my napping companion, all warm, furry and purry. Still sleeps faceplanted into a pillow or blanket and snores like no lady should.
There has been added stress the past few weeks, with Midgie's (our civvie) problem showing up so out of no where. Ru will hiss as her for 2 days after each vet appointment but will then go back to her normal surly self. Its seems like the few higher numbers have coincided with Midgie's vet visits so maybe they're stress spikes.
So for the most part, all is good in Ru's world. She's doing great and holding pretty steady. And we have our FDMB family to thank. We couldn't done it without you! \M/
