    Ah this is so brilliant, so glad to hear that she's more settled and eating better.

    This is how Quickly she goes up and down today is a can't eat and its a sickness day. She choking loads and can't even look at her food. This is the hard part. I just give her gentle strokes and reassure her and take her food away so she's not upset or pressured. She how she goes and plan some nice treats to see if I can tempt her latter. It's hard but I'm learning.

    She's still her silly self as long as she is it gives me the strength and reason to continue down this road a while longer. She is still happy. Just a day at a time :)

    Glad all is looking good and she is enjoying her food, well at times.
    Sure plenty more silliness, barks and food in her

    Running out of food ideas she will occasionally eat chicken now. Anyone got any ideas ? Tried most things it's getting depressing again.

    I’m sorry to hear she’s not doing too good.

    Have you tried sweet potato? Stanley loves it x

    Re-visit the previously rejected foods? Belle was eating frankfurters and custard creams :eek: - I know! but she did eat them.

    Yep I've tried a lot but she is off food. she's developed diarrhoea as well despite the bland foods so I think she may have a bug or something else. I get some frankfurters tomorrow just plain ordinary one in a tin ? I may bring the vets I know they can't do much but I will just run stuff passed them they've been helpful so far.

    I suppose wet food in a pouch hasn't worked? Dog or cat variety?

    Nope doesn't like any if it tried all dog cat versions. Sad I know even warm enticing stuff is a complete fail. She will eat chips fried fish a little so she will he having something like that tomorrow
