weighed the cats a few minutes ago...
Silver - 15.2lbs
Scouty - 16.8lbs
The vet weighed Zho-Zho on Saturday and she was 13.75lbs.
And Tessica is 8.4lbs.
The controlled diet is well overdue for everyone but Tessica... (and my own weight is unspeakable. I get the cats weight by weighing myself holding them, then putting them down and weighing again and subtracting. Can I just say 'ugh'? I have GOT to find a way to getr more ex)
Yesterday I fed the girls at 8am, 5pm, and 10.30pm. Scouty's tummy gets very upset if it's empty, poor baby and she's puked up clear stuff at 4am every night since I cut their food. No puking last night... I also left Tessica's bowl out during the day, but I put it up high on the dresser in the living room beside their cat tree. Scouty and Zho-Zho don't jump/climb any more so they can't get at it, and while Silver CAN get up there, she almost never does. Tessie's usually the only one who scales the cat tree.

We've noticed the older (and heavier) cat doesn't climb much and this could be why she raids the dog food dish so often. Their self-feeding dispenser is up high where dog can't get it and the cats must climb. Fat Lilly doesn't like to do that so she often waits until she's famished or begs for people food (and then I only give her meat, which did bring her health back a few years ago). I'm impressed by your efforts and even weighing the cats. Hopefully you will be able to get yourself on track as well so you'll like what you're doing for you. It does sound as though you're doing a bit more than you were able to recently, so that is probably helping. (hugs)
