What a day yesterday! :-D Could I be so lucky and have a repeat today? Inquiring minds want to know! It was really a fantastic day yesterday - Mannie managed to maintain a low to mid blue cycle throughout the day. And no bounce this morning!, though the morning is still young.... :? We have a 222 to start, and I do look forward to what today will bring.

It's been a normal morning for Mannie - breffis #1, and #2 eaten, no crumbs left. Preening, purring and LB accounted for. He was my supervisor this morning while I got ready - funny how he sits there and watches every move, purrs the entire time. The interior perimeter had been patrolled: he now sits in his spot by the open window - nose pressed to the screen, sniffs a plenty, on high alert. :cool: Soon the outdoor perimeter will be patrolled too.

Not too sure what all the day will bring for me - trip to Seattle to visit friends this afternoon, yard work yet again: ugh! though Mannie loves it. yesterday he spent the afternoon sprawled on the lawn, soaking up the rays (when they showed) while I worked.

Have a great day everyone!
 
Re: 8/4 Mannie AMPS 222

Hey Mannie, Great AMPS. Mine wasn't so great, but I'm in yellow now and want to go surfing with you and Moonie. See you soon!

Stu

Hi Michelle, It would be great for Mannie to have a repeat of yesterday! Enjoy your trip to Seattle and your yard work (I don't really do yard work anymore, I just let what is there fight it out; the previous owners were gardeners and they must cringe if they ever drive by their old house!!) But we moved up here for paddling in the warmer months, not gardening!!

Re: 8/4 Mannie AMPS 222, +2 232

Have a great time in Seattle. This is a good place for Mannie to start the day. Yesterday was great. I hope Mannie can keep these flat cycles goind.
 
Re: 8/4 Mannie AMPS 222, +2 232

Hi guys, and thanks! We too hope for a repeat of yesterday - so far it looks like the color of the day is yellow. Even so - for once we didn't get that pink bounce that he usually does. Looking not too bad so far, hoping for blues later on.

Hear ya on the yard work Ella. If there was a choice, it would be the last on my list.... but right now it is a mess, and I just decided this summer I would fix it - well try too anyways, but I think the yard will win out over all. :-D If I were you I'd choose paddling over yarding any day.

And Thanks Sienne - I do too. Yesterday was really a great day for him - nice and flat. And I too thought today was a good start. I hope he can maintain this, that we don't start creeping up. Paws crossed!

HEY STU! Let's go buddy! We should get Tess and Buzz - but I haven't heard from them yet - I bet they are still sleeping. Girls! What to do with them. See you soon - after I finish breffis #3. Whooooo hooooooo - I love food. ~~ Mannie

For now - clean my house, and then off to Seattle. YAY!
 
Re: 8/4 Mannie AMPS 222, +2 232, +4 153

Mannie is getting it, great day yesterday and back in blue already! :thumbup

Mannie, Whooo Hoooo! Blue again! Mom has her paws crossed for me, muttering about testing again before I get the rest of my breffis. What e go through for food! See you soon. -- Tess
 
Re: 8/4 Mannie AMPS 222, +2 232, +4 153

Have a fun time in Seattle, Michelle! Good luck on the yard work. :-x At least you have a furry buddy to keep you company while you're out there. You know nothing bad will get past WatchCat! :-D

Mannie-
Hey, Stu and I are gonna come keep you company, and we might pick Blackie up on the way, ok? I think Tess might come, too. Your bean is really happy with you for your numbers; I'm sure she won't mind if you have some company while she's gone. We'll clean up and of course we will eat all the food we bring. See you soon!
<3, Buzz
 
Re: 8/4 Mannie AMPS 222, +2 232, +4 153, +5.5 155

Hey Buzz! Howdy Tess!! Woo hoo!!! A gathering at my place YAY!!! I am so glad I will have company while my bean is gone! The fog has lifted and we can go shoreline surf. With the eagles and the osprey. It is just the coolest thing... BIG BIRDS! :shock: :shock: See you guys soon. ~~ Mannie

Hey Emma - will you come too? it would so so fun to have you here! ~ Mannie

Here I am cleaning the kitchen, and in walks Mannie. Sits in his test spot, and begins the stare down. hmmmm I think - not the normal time, had better listen as this usually means something is up. hey - voila! holding steady at 155. I love this cat - it was like he was saying "see all is well, now go and have time with your friends"... OR: he wants me gone so all his buddies can come. HAHA! And what to believe... :shock: :lol: :lol:

Hey Ann - I so hope you are right - it would be so nice to see! after all this time... paws crossed!

and so far we are once again, holding that flat curve. blue. I can accept that - just very nice for such a bouncy rubbery kitty.
 
Re: 8/4 Mannie AMPS 222, +2 232, +4 153, +5.5 155

So great to see Mannie in the blues today...and no B**nce either! Wow! So impressive!!!
I told Shadow that you were getting wonderful numbers today and he muttered something that sounded like "showoff" under his breath and then he said "That's such good news" and smiled sweetly.
maybe he feels bad cause he is up on the Pink floor today...no parties going on up there! :lol:
 
Re: 8/4 Mannie AMPS 222, +2 232, +4 153, +5.5 155, +7.5 125

Hi Pat! :lol: :lol: on the showoff - indeed Mannie tends to strut his stuff when he is looking good. Shadow is no dummie :lol: :lol: Oh I can just see that sweet smile. Too funny. But yes - the blues the past two days have been nice to see. I keep hoping every time I test that they are still there....

Hey Shadow!! You doin' OK today? How are the toothies? Hey I think you should show Raja who is boss, and kick her out of those cube thingies... I am soooooooo jealous! I have begged and everything to get my bean to order some, and everyday I check the mail and stuff, and no cubes! :sad: You'd think with these great numbers she'd cave and stuff. but nooooooooo! silly bean. I think I will order them myself! I will come and visit you today- even if you are on the pink floor.... Later!! Mannie

well off to town - a few hours of escape. Looks like Mannie can handle things on his own for a while... :?
 
Re: 8/4 Mannie AMPS 222, +2 232, +4 153, +5.5 155, +7.5 125

Hey Mannie, What a great idea for us to keep you company while your mamabean goes to Seattle! We are having a wonderful time, surfing and eating good food. Nice to see the girls: Tess, Buzz and Emma. Too bad Shadow couldn't come, but maybe he'll come surfing tonight. Oh, here comes a blue wave--let's go!!

Stu
 
Re: 8/4 Mannie AMPS 222, +2 232, +4 153, +5.5 155, +7.5 125

Looks like Mannie settled into a nice blue surf :smile:

Nice day yesterday too!
 
Re: 8/4 Mannie AMPS 222, +2 232, +4 153, +5.5 155, +7.5 125

Hey Mannie!
You're gonna have to strip off that cop cat uniform when you are basking unless you want goofy tan lines! That won't go over cool when you are surfing dude!
Purrcie
 
Re: 8/4 Mannie AMPS 222, +4 153, +7.5 125, PMPS 122

Hey Purrcie!! I KNOW dude! I had to take it off - it was scaring everybody... and uhhhh ... not to mention what it did to my tan. :oops: I am so glad you came too - FUN!! ~~ Mannie

Hey Stu! I love blue waves! It was so cool of all you guys to come and visit me. WHOOO HOO!!!!!!! Food was good too. My bean was so happy that I wasn't alone this afternoon. I hope my civvie sisters weren't too much of a pain. BlackJack can be such a wave stealer - she loves the water. I know on Shadow - I hope he will come for some night surfin' tonight. ~~ Mannie

Hi Jen! So nice to see a new face in Mannie's condo. Thx!!

Two days in a row of great numbers for Mannie! Congrats - I want to see more. :mrgreen:

Come on, Mannie, show Blackie what you can do so he can do it too.
 
Re: 8/4 Mannie AMPS 222, PMPS 122, +2 42 (!!)

:shock: :shock: :shock: 42 ?!?!? didn't expect that - well needless to say - out came the HC and the gravy, and will retest in 30 minutes, maybe less. Mannie - you made :mrgreen: !

Brian - Mannie says THANK YOU!! he really loves chin rubs!!

Hey Ann - that still is my fav surfer kitty! And I think he is rippin' it - a 42. ok then... might be a busy night. @-)

Hi Ele! Uhhhh - maybe not duplicate this, but certainly the blue surf.... :-D
 
Re: 8/4 Mannie AMPS 222, PMPS 122, +2 42 (!!), +2.5 52

Hey all my LL buddies... That gravy is REALLY GOOD STUFF! Yummmmmmmmmmmmmm, and may I have some more, please? ~~ Mannie

52 @ +2.5
 
Re: 8/4 Mannie AMPS 222, PMPS 122, +2 42 (!!), +2.5 52

A little low Mannie lets not scare the Bean at night now :smile: Hope you have coffee made Michelle looks like Mannie is going to keep you busy :YMHUG: cat_pet_icon
 
Re: 8/4 Mannie AMPS 222, PMPS 122, +2 42 (!!), +2.5 52

A couple of suggestions...

Like Mannie, Gabby can have her numbers drop early. I've started to get a +1, especially when her PS is blue. I suspect if you had the +1, you would have had a better sense of where Mannie's numbers were heading and could have intervened earlier with HC.

I have been thinking a lot about Mannie's SS. What would you think about jumping in with some MC or HC if Mannie drops more than 100 points in an hour or two? I'm wondering if slowing Mannie's drops will prevent some of the bounces.
 
Re: 8/4 Mannie AMPS 222, PMPS 122, +2 42 (!!), +2.5 52, +3 48

Hi Sienne - and thanks! I agree! I think that when I see a ps number that is that low I had better get a +1. I would have had a better handle on this evening than I do now. If I have a +1, or a +2 that is lower, I do feed HC. I recently changed that - from MC to HC, as I remember your bringing that to my attention earlier. I do believe that this has helped slow things up - not always but for the most part: yes.

and yes when the drops are more than 100 point in an hour, no matter where he is in the cycle, I will give him MC or HC depending on how great the drop is. I have started to do that - and it does make a difference, and helps maintain a more even cycle. I know that sometimes my SS doesn't always indicate that - a mental block on my part - something I need to do better with. It is on my posts, but not always on my SS.

thanks for the suggestions - I couldn't agree more.

48 @ +3, gave some HC and gravy, will retest in 30 minutes.
 
Re: 8/4 Mannie PMPS 122, +2 42 (!!), +2.5 52, +3 48, +3.5 50

Hi Lisa! I hope he is reading this... :-D come on Mannie - find the board....

50 @ +3.5, fed small tsp HC with gravy, will retest in 30 minutes.
 
Re: 8/4 Mannie PMPS 122, +2 42 (!!), +2.5 52, +3 48, +3.5 50

Mannie, I can't keep up (or, down!) with you tonight. I've started my bounce. Now don't go too low. Your mamabean needs her sleep. See ya tomorrow,

Stu

MANNIE!!!!! I have dinner and take care of some chores and look what you do!!! Time to come up for a breather, Mannie!

Well, Michelle, welcome to my world. Wow, I'd say Mannie has reached his turning point (anti jinx).
 
Re: 8/4 Mannie PMPS 122, +2 42, +4 46, +5 55, +5.5 57, +6 59

oh this is not fun! :shock: :lol: it is like slowwwwwwwwwwwww torture, a gradual climb, but ever so slow.... one more at +6.5, take a little snooze, and check him again.

hey Ann - my hat definitely goes off to you. I hope he has reached a turning point -- i love that part, not too crazy about how cranky I get when it is way past my bedtime... oh well - he's worth it. and hey - at least he is still eating.

and no bounce in the morning....
