I took Pippa to the vet yesterday to get her nails trimmed, and weighed her to make sure it hadn't changed too much because I needed to get her Trifexis.

When I adopted her in August, she was about 6 months old, was roughly 35lbs, and pretty thin. Her ribs were showing and her hips stuck out a little more than I'd assume is normal.

When I boarded her for a few days over Christmas she had gained some weight, filled out nicely and weighed in at 45lbs.

Yesterday when we weighed her I assumed she'd be close to 50lbs. I thought she'd filled out a little more, but she weighed in at 36lbs? She as weighed at the vet all three times, so I don't know what could have caused this. Could the scale be off, or need to be calibrated?

I don't think anything's wrong, it just seems really weird.

That does seem really weird. I would say that as long as her ribs and hips aren't showing she should be fine, but perhaps weigh her again with a different scale (like at your local petsmart) just to be sure and put your mind at ease?

I really need to, this week has just been crazy. I've even thought about the whole weighing myself without her and then weighing with her, but I don't have a scale at my apartment because I tend to get obsessive about my weight. haha

I'll take her to Petsmart this weekend!

Good luck! And maybe shes going going through another growth spurt, I know Yuki would get real lanky and then all of a sudden look normal again after a couple weeks.
