Hi,
I am new to this forum and am VERY,VERY happy to be here. My little girl is 18 weeks old. (Weighs about 2lbs. A "micro" teacup). She is a VERY BAD EATER..... 5 weeks ago, she had a SERIOUS hypogycemic attack and we rushed her to the amimal hospital... She was there for 3 day's. I'm VERY happy to say that she's doing much better now. The hospital taught me to syringe food into her and she takes it quite well.
She started to eat off a plate on her own (with the same vet soft food), but she again has become finicky! I also give her hard kibble, but NO LUCK! About 3 times a week I can get her to eat a small buiscuit.
After each meal, (now 3 times a day), I give her a bit of Karo syrup. As per my vet, I do not give Nutrical, because it will make her nauseas due to the food she's eating has ALLOT of nutrients.
Can anyone suggest how I can get her to eat NORMALLY?? Not by syringe...I will start to integrate slowly, some new soft foods and see... Any suggestions would be GREATLY appreciated!!! I ADORE MY LITTLE CHA CHA!!!!!!
Sincerely, Jellybn1
