Hi All,
 
I need some advise again please, and everybody on the FML has been great in
the past so I hope someone will be able to give me some insight. :)
 
My 3 year old female ferret Io is on this weird anorexic binge.  She will
eat, but only small amounts or when I personally hand feed her each bite.
I am not concerned with her eating physically, as I do make sure she is
getting enough food, but I'd like to know if anyone would have a clue why
she is like this, and perhaps offer suggestions on how to stimulate her
appetite.
 
Also, since this started she won't eat TF or any ferret food, but she will
eat the premium whiskas ( yes I KNOW that's an oxymoron).  I don't care
that much right now as she eats a bit so, please don't suggest better
quality food.  My sister did notice that the whiskas and our dog food (she
used to eat that also) are very similar in texture, light and puffy which
may be why she likes the whiskas.
 
She is losing weight and I'm concerned but she isn't in immediate any
danger.  I'd just like to get an idea how to get her over this.
 
If anyone has any suggestions, please write to me directly as it's tax
season (hint hint Paige) and I'm an accountant and soooo busy I don't
have time to read all the fml's.

Thanks so much
