That's encouraging!

Being off her food Wednesday and Thursday was worrying, but if she picks back up again today then she may be good to go. Just a couple of finicky days and hopefully she's back on track.

im posting the feeding routine in case someone
spots something i can improve on

a new food every morning so i can hopefully find a few favs
put on clean saucer every time and cut up and warmed
put in clean storage containers
fresh water twice a day
and left out for 2 hours at the most
twice to 3 times a day (amount of can divided in half or thirds)
sometimes dry offered that she ignores
in between the wet
and no ppl running around or loud noises
so shes not distracted or startled

i cant think of anymore to make it better
but there might be something
and when i said a new food every morning
i meant that
im not even trying to make her eat a food thats been
opened a few days just the same can for the one day
that its opened
so it doesnt seem like freshness is an issue with her
i may as well start keeping it instead of tossing it

Good thing cats don't wear wrist watches...although it seems like they do. I go out now and then on Friday after work and get home 3-4 hours later than normal. The cats act really hungry when I get home (and in your case, that may be a good thing). If she's being offered the same amount of food in 24 hours then it should be all right.

You could leave her a little bit of extra food before you leave the house.
