Congrats on the first step back to normalcy. Doesn't it drive you crazy when they won't eat?!?!?!?
Does anyone else have trouble with this?
Tyke is a HORRIBLE eater and actually goes hypoglycemic if I don't keep on top of him.
I was worried about him over the past few days as he went completely off his food - hasn't done that in ages. In fact, I was thrilled at his vet visit last week that he'd gained 5 oz. (a huge gain for him and the best he's done)
I think he's lost it all though. He hadn't had anything since breakfast yesterday and was getting pretty lethargic. I offered him all his favorites, and when he turned down cheese, and then eggs, I knew things were getting serious.
I "kick started" him by forcibly syringe feeding him 1 c.c. of a.d (which I keep on hand at all times) and within about 3 minutes he was picking at his eggs, and cleaned them up. I'll give him some home cooked at noon and hopefully by supper time he'll be back on track.
I find that (for him) I have better success if I give him small amounts often. I'll be SO happy if I can just get him up to about 3.5 lbs. Hopefully, he won't be so darn boney.
