So I guess this is leftover from yesterday's Fancy Feast indulgences or perhaps a bounce? She has gone backwards like this before off of lows. I was impressed by her AM preshot given what she ate yesterday!

My question-
1. When people feed Fancy Feast, how much does one usually give? I gave her 1/2 of a 3 ounce can at first concern, and the other half when it seemed like the rise wasn't holding. Would it have been better to go low carb first? Was that the right amount when I did give it?

It is of particular concern as we are trying to work our way down to 6 ounces a day of Wellness as she is still carrying more weight than she should. At this point she is still eating 8 as I have been leaving extra food out in the AM when I am at work as I have been concerned over the low PMPS when I get home. In the evening I feel like I can offer less and give more later if need be.

Anyway, she's having a nice afternoon. Snoozing on her perch on this grey and finally rainy day.

I have never used the Ff Indulgence so I am of not help to you at all...
I just stopped by to say what nice numbers Sya is having!

Well I guess given where she was at +5 the PMPS could have been higher....curious to see what the evening brings...

Am wondering if I should break out the high carb again if I reach the same point as I did last night or should I do low carb first and check? Last nights numbers were good, yes? The only symptoms I saw last night is she seemed a little more restless than usual...not the circling sniffing things on the list, just kind of off...which calmed down once I broke out the Fancy Feast.
She's a happy camper thus far this evening..gone back to her bowl after pokies to have a little snack...

I usually try low carb first, then test in 30 minutes to see how it worked. If she's still dropping, then increase the carb content. it all depends on when it is in the cycle, how fast she's dropping, and how carb sensitive she is. The only way to know is to try different carb %'s and see what works for Sya.

Thanks. I'm hoping for a little calmer evening, but based on the initial drop am thinking I may need to put on a pot of coffee nailbite_smile ....

Seems like she is conditioned...every time we do a poke she goes to her bowl to graze a bit more. Would love to see where she goes with just what's in her bowl as that's what she'll have to deal with when I'm at work. I do leave her a lot extra then. Such a conundrum...good numbers, but it makes me even more nervous...go figure
