yes, nutri-cal was by my suggestion. Vet is the one that did the rx for it, and gave specific instructions. It's definitely followed up by protein. Done with her meal. She loves it and gobbles it right down. I don't like that it's once a day, as she MIGHT refuse kibble without it being done each time. I'll cross that bridge when it happens. So far, it's fine. |
Maybe she is in a growth/weight gain plateau. My boys, full brothers, grew in spurts their first year.
I had to hand feed Max his first year and play games with his food. Now he is a chow hound.
If she continues to refuse the kibble, you could consult petdiets.com to homecook for her.
