It's The Small Steps That Count

Today was a better day than yesterday.  I made both kitties their first home made food.  The recipe was:

- 3 medium to large size chicken necks boiled in organic chicken broth and water
- 1 cup of brown rice
- 3 organice carrots chopped into slices and boiled

Once cooked, I then removed the chicken off the bones and placed the meat, carrots, rice and chicken broth in the blender, mixing it all together nicely.  I let it cool down in the fridge to room temperature and it thickened up nicely.

Just before their dinner, I gave each cat a small amount of the new food with most of their herbal concoctions mixed in (minus the Yunnan Baiyao and Amino B-Plex as I didn't want to push my luck).  Thankfully they ate everything.

This morning I mixed the HMF Powder, along with some Milk Thistle into the Lypo-Spheric Vitamin C, which is thankfully a sticky substance and smeared it onto the top of Weasel's paw.  He eventually groomed it completely off (however it took a very long time) so he received his intake of that as well.

I'm not up to the daily consumption levels Weasel is supposed to have but I can't push it.  Some of the items he needs to eat are twice a day.  I'm lucky I get it in once every day.  I have to assume that something is better than nothing though.  The important thing is that he still eats.

I've completely stopped feeding them dry food and will mix small amounts of canned wet food into a larger amount of healthy home made food.  I will slowly start integrating raw meat as well.

Tomorrow I'll buy Mason Jars - a great way to store food, and start freezing the extra amounts of blended food so that it doesn't go bad.

It's exhausting to go through this regime each day to say the least, but I can't afford to relax and take things easy anymore.  This disease has changed everything considerably.
