bless you for rescuing her. as for the skinniness, could be any of a number of issues or combination of issues. parasites, starvation, various health problems, or she could just be skinny. I have one of those. eats well, good quality food and she's skinny as a rail. let your vet give her a going over, as others have already said, then get her on some good quality food and some good quality lovin'. might not hurt to keep her on a very bland diet until you've seen the vet, something like boiled chicken and white rice, a little cottage cheese or plain yogurt, things like that. feed smaller meals more often until she's used to eating again. if it is starvation especially, her system isn't going to be used to regular meals. offering her a banquet right off the bat can cause more problems than it solves. |
