To Robert Galvin and Miranda: Have you tried giving Miranda Nurti-cal? It's a very palitable vitamin suppliement. After surgery or when they 're not feeling well, my munckins will eat Nutrical even if they won't eat their regular food. If she likes this, try putting nutrical on crushed SD. I fed my older ferrets SD and when they wouldn't eat (due to insulinomas), I fed crushed SD mixed with Nurtical. Then, when they'd eat it, I'd decrease the amount of Nutrical and eventually they'd eat just the SD. You also may want to try hand feeding her. Mine were particular to this after surgery (and they had several!!!) good luck. Cindy, Beren and Pippin [Posted in FML issue 0960]
