I tried her regular food with some chicken that she loves, but she just turned her nose up at it. I tried some of her food with carrot baby food and nothing. She would also eat this before. I tried chicken with rice and nadda. She won't eat her hard food either. Just warm chicken only. We think she maybe going through some kind of emotional thing due to Hallee having surgery. Hallee is crated because we have to keep her from running around ect so she does not cause any damange to the work that was just done. Gracie does not have her to sleep with or play with. I am not really sure what to do to get her to eat more???????? |
Oh no! Gracie is on a hunger strike until she gets her precious Hallee back??? Poor lil' kiddo..... I'm certainly no expert but when Natalie started turning her nose up at anything and everything, and boiled chicken was the only thing she'd touch.... the vets said to allow her to have it if it's all she'll take... but to be sure and add some supplement....
So I would give her a mixture of boiled chicken with some Karo and Missing Link and on a good day, she'd gobble it right down.
Not the best thing for a forever diet I suppose, but to get her through, it worked wonders!
Many blessings to you and your girls and lots of kisses to them both!!
