Just thought you would all like to know that Zaccheus is now drinking water from a bowl and the water bottle. We took him camping where he spent a couple days with one of his litter mates. He picked up the bowl dringking from her, and when I brought him home, he started drinking from the bottle by himself. He would alternate between the two. Take a few laps from the bowl, lift his head to swallow it down, and lick the water bottle while his head was tipped back. I stood in the doorway watching in amazement. It just about made me cry. And then, this morning, he decided that dry food was awesome, so now we are moving on to that. I won't be wetting his food anymore. It will be better for him if he has it dry, so we'll keep it that way from now on.
Water and dry food in one week? It's nothing short of a miracle!
