Taffy has days like this, too. In fact, if I were to pinpoint a routine behavior for her it would almost be that she eats every other day! It's not quite that extreme but if she's not hungry, you cannot make her eat. We keep food out all the time so that she can free feed.

When we recently took her back to our breeder for boarding while we were on a trip, I was afraid she would tell us that Taffy was underweight. Imagine our surprise at just the opposite!

Our baby was a tad overweight! Now that she's spayed, too, our breeder wants us to be careful not to overfeed. She says that our girl just happens to have that pattern of eating. She eats very little every other day but the other days, she eats heartily. Since she's healthy and having no problems, we are okay with her choices. She has never had a problem with low blood sugar and she does drink water well even on those days she's not eating very much.
