Thanks to all for the information provided about the "no food" within 2 hours of preshot. I understand the theory but with Susie getting the occasional late nadir I will be prepared at +10 to give l/c if need be. I will always put her safety first. If I do have to feed within the 2 hours I will delay the shot. I cannot predict how high food takes her as it varies. I also can no longer predict her nadir because it is all over the place. I guess what I am saying is I still "do not know my cat"!

Question: I bought a few cans of Weruva and Tiki Cat that I can't find any information on the carb, calorie or phosphorous content. Does anyone have a complete list of the 3 oz cans of Weruva or Tiki Cat. I did get a good, partial list of the Weruva from someone and Jill and Snuggie gave me some information on some of the Tiki foods and I thank them.

Thanks so much for pointing me in the direction of the Weruva food list @Jay Dee. I found a great link inside the post.

Weruva

Weruva posts all nutritional information on their website. For carbohydrates, you are looking for the Metabolized Energy value (it's usually the top chart on their nutrition pages). Tiki Cat will provide information if contacted - I'm not sure what post you got pointed to but Emily posted the info she received on a few varieties in Health - link - you then have to take that data (as Fed and/or dmb) and calculate the % of total calories that are carbs - Calculating % Calories from Carbohydrates

Surf safely, Susie!

Did you see the few tiki cat ones on there? I thought there were more. But there are a ton of weruva!

Looking good! Fingers crossed for a day that doesn't involve too much stress or testing.

This is the link that Suzanne had posted in the CKD forum. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1sli95TBIzdhbskuAMSGVePqi0-4bWisR/view It has a lot of great information. I've not been able to figure out how to calculate the % of total calories that are carbs. Might go back and look at it again.

Yes, I did see four Tiki Cats and two were too high for CKD kitties. Thanks for all your help, Jill.

Thanks, Acadaca. Another interesting day. She used to nadir around +4 and +6. She just keeps going down this afternoon. We will see what happens at PMPS.

Slow and safe little one

Slow and safe little one

Thanks, Pamela. I just got her +9 and she is slowly coming up. Hope she continues to do this so I don't have to worry about PMPS.

Nice numbers for Susie! Have a great evening Summer

Thanks, Adrienne, for checking in on us. This girl is so unpredictable.

Weruva has a “no bones” approach so their phosphorus tends to be lower. Tiki, on the other hand, does not. Their foods tend to be higher in phosphorus. Darcy used to love the chicken with the little quail eggs in there. I’m glad I made him happy with that food, in retrospect.

Hi Summer, hope you and Susie had a good day. Her numbers are looking great. I hope her +2 doesn’t throw you any Susie surprises . Hope your mom is doing okay today. Hope you have a good blue evening, Susie’s surf safely . Hugs to all ​

Yeah, I got a can of the Tiki with the Quail egg but I couldn't determine if it was low ph. I have a lot of research to do on the foods.

So is Molly

I wish nadirs didn't move around, but they do sometimes. On bounce clearing cycles the nadir can be later than normal. I hope Susie surfs safely tonight. Sending prayers for your mom.

Hi Summer , I haven't been around, just checking in on you and Susie ♥
