You said she is eating pureed baby food chicken...if that is all she will eat, feed her that! That will keep her alive just fine for long enough for her to get stronger....only if she goes off food completely do I see you have a problem
The more you snuggle with her, the calmer and more secure and less depressed she will feel....poor little darling....I would be giving her Dr.Millers Pet Nutra Drops....that will help with the stress and also has vitamins and glucose that she needs now...and it stimulates their appetite.
