This afternoon I have to take one of my kits, Sadie, to the vet to get some stomach medicine. She has diarrhea from changing their diet to a very high protein, almost no carb food. Sidney needs a high protein/low carb food because of her diabetes. I purchased the food from a small business. Thing is, the small manufacturers say that cats are omnivores and should be fed food that is as close as possible to the food a wild feline would eat. Buuut...domestic cats are not wild cats. So the extremely dense protein diets sometimes upset their digestion. Pretty sure I'm going to switch them over to a high protein diet that is a little bit higher in carbs than .05%. The difference doesn't seem to affect Sidney's glucose numbers, anyway.

It seems like I'm having confrontations with some people lately. Yet, honestly I can't blame myself for the issues, because I had absolutely no intention of causing them. I guess...being misunderstood? I'm not cognitively the greatest these days, so I'm making mistakes. Anyway, I'm going to be especially careful with what I say, how I say it, and how I react, until I'm feeling more stable. I'll be seeing my therapist once a week instead of every 2 weeks; I think once a week will be beneficial.

Well dear ones, have a lovely! I hope Rainbow checks in today.

Aww Beth I hope you get some more sleep!
And I hope everything goes well with your kitty! That must be so difficult to balance and choose between foods and work out what’s best for them!
I’m so sorry to hear that you’re struggling with interactions! That sounds so tough, I’m glad you aren’t blaming yourself. Remember to be kind to yourself! Just like how you are so kind to others on here!
Lots of hugs
