If we feed Lucy kibble, we soften it with water, and keep it in the refrigerator in a tupperware. We warm it in the microwave for about 15 seconds. Now, she mostly eats home made food which we grind in a food processor. She does much better if we use a small plate, and pile the food into a thin Christmas tree shape. She can bite it, and get it in her mouth better than trying to scoop it up with her lips and tongue in a bowl. It took her a little while to relearn eating. The old way just didn't work for her anymore. She also does better with her food dish elevated. Best wishes with your dear little foster. I hope she heals quickly, and is healthier and more comfortable without those bad old rotten teeth.
