Egluntyne Posted April 9, 2010 Share Posted April 9, 2010 I think so. She doesn't sound as if she has made the progress one would expect. Good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chucky Mama Posted April 9, 2010 Share Posted April 9, 2010 If she really has not eaten anything and is not drinking you really need to get something down her or take her back to the vet sooner than Monday. Can she be tempted with some warm mash, porridge or mealworm? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandyhas3chucks Posted April 9, 2010 Share Posted April 9, 2010 ready brek made with water.... scrambled egg, try taking her to the garden on her own and digging uip some worms but apparently not ALL worms are yummy, so just if she refuses to start don't give up straight away. AND there is something called "nourish um", a high calorie paste for dogs, can be bought at Pets at home AND some smaller pets stores and I have seen other makes, they do it for cats and some other small pets also. It might just keep her going till you get her to the vet, but MYSELF I would take her in the morning. Sometimes they need to start eating and then they will really get going. Some whilte fishing maggots might get her excited too! good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
