Do you see a problem with feeding her (1) 275-300g rat every 10 days regardless of when she poops? I hope not because this is what I've been doing for the past 4 months. Before that I was feeding her (1) 250-275g rat every 10 days. I noticed she started pooping less frequently about 3 months ago.

I know you recommend chilling out about her weight and that her body condition looks good to you. Although, I just know her body condition has worsened, she has lost weight and activity level had really decreased over the past 6 months. Please understand I would not be worried about her body condition, weight and activity level for no reason.

I see no problem with the slight bump up in feeder size to promote a bit of weight gain- provided your vet doesn't have a different opinion once you know exactly what's going on & what treatment is done. Your question is just a bit premature- one thing at a time.
