punkin spent the night in great numbers last night

pmps 113
+1.75 109
+3 86
+4 68
+5 72
+6.5 74 (fell asleep and missed the +6, but obviously he was fine)
amps today 150

something has changed - we've found a good dose (8.25u) and he's flattening out on it. it's encouraging. no meter or syringe quality issues, just ordinary numbers. finally.

he's definitely not crazy about the Merrick's before grain food, but after looking in 4 local stores, that's the only one of two foods that are low carb and low phosphorous that i have been able to find. i'm not quite mentally prepared to do the raw thing. the other food is Friskies and it's all by-products and who knows what, so i keep giving him the merrick's too. anya helped him get to the CPC, but he finished hers, so we're still going to count them all in! :-D

i'm going back to bed now.

Hi guys .. I'm so happy for you, that you are seeing some nice solid numbers with punkin .. you take such great care of him and I know this makes you happy :-D Punkin, anya, good job on the CPC!! Have a great day guys!
 
Re: 7/18 punkin amps 150

Wow Punkin - you are looking sweet (or rather not so much)! And again he keeps you up at night. Not sure you'll get much of a rest today though.

If you need any help with the mental thing about raw, I've been through it. Course it was easier for me, it was the only food that Theo's vet said would work for both of them. Otherwise it was supervising/separating cats at each meal and you know how easy that is with an acro cat :lol: Neko loved it from day one, Theo took a couple weeks to transition.
 
Re: 7/18 punkin amps 150

Nice to see Punkin settling down to these nice numbers. I know I've seen some recipes for cooked homemade cat food. Unfortunately Google isn't working right now. Raw is better, but this may be a first step. When I make Tess's raw food i use Calcium Carbonate rather that bonemeal. There is a lot of phosphorus in bones. Cooking will destroy some of the nutrients, but perhaps there are other supplements that can be added.

Also on Tanys's site there are links for medical schools that can formulate prescription diets and the cast for the service seemed reasonable.

Aw, punkin, I'm sorry your fuds are not as yummy as before. Your bean is working on finding something you like and is good for you. Julie, don't you wish we had those scanners on Star Trek? I sure do. :lol: :lol:

ETA: I called our hair stylist at about +6.5 and said I had "cat drama" and was she on time? She said I could come an hour later if that would help and she would fit me in. Isn't that nice? But, no, I used local time with her, not FD time. :lol: :lol:
 
Julie - Great numbers!!! Hoping Tracy & I can see something so nice very soon!!!

Thanks for your continued support on our condos!
