Yesterday

Trix has eased into the day nicely. She is, however, pretty sick of Wellness....I'm going to have to check the charts again, to see what is LC and low phos....and hopefully, if I try some new stuff, it won't send her BGs all over the map again, like we had earlier this year.

Time to get ready for work. Thinking of Angela and her civvie Shadow this morning. Sending tons of prayers out to all my LL family today....have a great day!

Hi, Amy! Oh no, the 'fuds wars' are starting soon? I hope you guys have a much easier time with finding a new food for Trix, too. Ripley eats Wellness Turkey 100% of the time, and I dread the time when I'll have to search for a new low-phos food, too. I wish you luck! (That reminds me, I should contact Merrick to see if they finally have values for their new formulas... I'll keep you posted...)

Trixie, enjoy your Lagoon Time! What a purrfect way to spend a Caturday! :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Have a great day, Amy! :-D

Morning Amy ~O) ~O) ~O)

Looking good there Trixie. I like your +2.5. :mrgreen: Good luck with the fuds. Wellness was such a staple her when Mannie was my fuds focus. It was his base food. I have tried it with the new ones here and they just will not eat it consistently, leave most of it in their bowls, even Bug, aka Mr Hoover. I dunno... we are stuck in a FF rut with them. :roll: We went through alot of Merrick, but they seem to have changed things, once again. Wishing you luck!

Have a great day today! :-D

I hear you about the Wellness. It's the only food I've found so far that River does well on. Some days he loves it and others he's not interested. I'm finding that crumbling freeze-dried chicken treats or bonito on top helps. Has Merrick changed their formulations? Lisa's food chart shows it being high in carbs.

Surf's up!

She eventually CPCs her Wellness within about 30 minutes of being served, just not with the gusto that she used to have for it. She got the same way about the FF, back when we were using that one. I do eventually "decorate" it with freeze dried salmon, too, and she does like that. I usually go one round without the salmon, then she looks at me like, "Where's my salmon sprinkles????", and out comes the bag. I use both chicken and turkey Wellness, and I actually blend them in various ways to keep it interesting for her (or, as interesting as possible!). Right now, she's not digging the turkey too much, but that could change tomorrow. Her appy itself is definitely fine - she has no problem trying to steal kibbles from the kibbleheads, that's for sure :lol: ! In fact, yesterday I caught her crawling under a very tight cabinet on a kibble hunt....crazy girl :lol: :lol: :lol: ! So, we'll see....I'm still sticking with the Wellness for now - I am definitely afraid of throwing off her numbers by switching agian.

Anywho....back to work!

Hi Amy,
I'm happy to see Trixie's usual beautiful surf!
I feed Lucy Wellness Turkey too.
When she's feeling well enough, she eats it OK, but when her appetite is low she turns her head away.
When that happens, I mix a tiny bit of Wellness Turkey&Salmon in it.
It's a little higher in phos, so I don't completely change, but mixing a little bit seems to make Lucy think that she's getting Turkey&Salmon.

I think Nature's Variety's Instinct Duck Formula is low in carbs and phos., but it's high in fat.
I sometimes give it to Lucy, but I have to be careful because of Lucy's pancreatitis....
