Definately take her back to the vet again. Talk with him/her. You may possibly want to offer her some wet food. Sometimes when they have a cold and can't smell too well, they may not want to eat. The wet food has a more pungent smell as opposed to the dry food and it may provoke her to start eating. Also ask him/her what do they think about offering her baked, skinless, boneless chicken breasts? Talk all of this over with your vet because if she is not used to this kind of food, it may cause an intestinal upset (such as loose stools or diarrhea). We certainly don't want to cause her any other problems. You may want to check her hydration status by pulling us the skin on the back of her neck between the shoulder blades. It should fall back down fairly quickly. If not, she may be dehydrated and need fluids. I hope that she gets to feeling better! Please keep us posted.
