    Gaining weight...

    Cu's been to the vet every 2 weeks for RI meds. Anyways, she gets weighed every time.

    Vet assistant says she gained a pound since her last appointment, and she's only eaten one small mouse since then.

    How does that work? Is it waterweight, maybe?

    A pound?? A pound is about 450 grams. No way she gained that much off of one mouse. Plus that is a big difference in a BP. You'd have noticed if she put on that much extra weight.
