Saturday's condo
Happy Monday morning!
I think Emma enjoyed a day off from all the testing yesterday. She was a very happy girl when I got home last night from my day in New Hampshire. She even purred while I was poking her!
Obviously not much to report, as I wasn't around yesterday, except her PMPS was in the 200s...I don't remember off the top of my head, and I can't see the spreadsheet here at work.
To answer Sienne's question from Friday about when I'm feeding - Emma's very much a grazer. I've tried to convert her to having regular meals in the past, but have given up that fight. Until a few weeks ago I'd just put down enough food for the day, and maybe add a little extra water to it when I got home, and let her eat when she wanted. Now I put down about half of what she needs for the day at 5:45, right before her 6 am shot. I watched her eat on Saturday, and she eats about a quarter of it right off the bat, and then goes back to it about every hour or so for a little more. It took her til about 1:30 to finish it all. I've been giving her a snack of chicken when I get home from work around +9.5, and if there is any food left in her dish (there usually isn't) I pick it up. I give her more food right before her 6 pm shot, and she does the same thing. I usually add a little extra to make sure she can make it through most of the night, because I'm not awake for the +9ish snack. Everything is always gone when I get up in the AM, and she's hungry. So, I think she is spreading out her breakfast on her own. Any thoughts on that?
Thanks for the input! I haven't updated her spreadsheet for today, but I will when I get home.
