i *think* fat cat is putting on some weight

we've been giving her soft food on demand for a week now and it seems to be helping. her back feels a little less knobbly and it should be that way. i've created a monster who gets a can plus a day.

i've also been able to sneak kidney food mixed in there and she's eating it no problem.

Have you got any further information from the vet on what the problem is? Weren't you waiting on more test results?

Eating is always a good sign!!!!! Yippee.

This sounds really encouraging. And in just a week, too! Keep up the good work, you're on a roll.

she is such a hog that i don't see how she could not be gaining a bit of weight.
