If I remember right, you don't give grain but how about making her some chicken breast and sweet potato or something? Maybe the smell will entice her and it would be good moisture.
lol, I'm sure you know to check but are her gums pink? |
She's on Buprenorphine...you can give it transmucosally every 8 hours. Her gums aren't really pink, but they aren't that pale either..just kindof in between I guess. Once when I checked her they were really pink, but it seems like her normal color is kindof a pale pink anyway.
I usually feed her raw, which has a lot of moisture in it. They just said not to feed her too much at first, and with her diarrhea i'm afraid to feed her too much. I was thinking about running to the store and getting some canned pumpkin to see if that helps and maybe fix her some cooked fish or an egg just to see if that's a little easier on her stomach right now.
