have you tried chicken baby food (meat only) mixed with a little white or brown rice? My puppies love this baby food. Then gradually add a little kibble to it. the main thing right now is to get some consistent nutrition into her. Worry about a permanent diet once you get her stabilized and eating consistently.

I would be careful about relying on Nutri-Cal. Using it to tide her over at night might be okay, but I'd try to get her onto real food during the day.

I don't know how small she is, but if she is very tiny you could try putting her kibble into the blender and make it smaller and almost powdery. Our puppies really like to lick this (don't wet it) and the adult dogs like it too. Gradually we increased the chunkiness of the kibble until they were on straight kibble.

Best wishes to you and your baby.
