I had to start schedule feeding which I was worried about since Lexi was used to free feeding. Sometimes she still does not eat breakfast, but she will eat at lunch time and dinner. If she eats breakfast, she will not eat at lunch time, but will at dinner. I remember the first month I had her I was so worried about her not eating enough I tried everything! I know I was part of the problem. I think she quickly learned that if she didn't eat I would add something to it to make it more enticing. |
Aw she's still just a baby.
Yes, they seem to get us wrapped around their paw quickly~~ It can be stressful when they don't eat, especially the smaller ones. With Peanut I had to do something, it was getting pretty bad. Now the little brat gets wet food mixed in with his dry!! It doesn't matter to me as long as he eats- I'm happy!!
