So LadyMom, how much does Lady weigh, and do you feed her any kibble or anything in addition to the homecooked 1 cup a day?
Lady's situation is a little different. She has liver damage from nine years of seizure medication. She's also diabetic and can't have white rice or white potatoes so feeding her is a challenge.

She also has food allergies. She had three episodes of HGE in four months so I had to stop her vegetarian kibble. She is doing really well on this diet. She's gained a whole pound in two months!

Anyway, to answer your questions, Lady just got weighed on Thursday. She weighed 7.2 pounds. She gets this diet plus plain nonfat yogurt before bed. Her treats are green beans and Busy Buddy Itty Bitty Sweet Potato biscuits. They are wheat free since she is allergic. She also gets tons of supplements including probiotics and fish oil.

She's a mess, but I love her!
