Skittles is eating!!!! I guess she decided that if I was going to force feed her stuff she hated, she'd be better off eating stuff she liked. :) She's not eating *much*, and I'm still worried about her, but she's eating and drinking on her own now. One of the problems I had with her is that she will voluntarily eat *nothing* except her ferret food. She likes the Linatone, but that's it. No other treat gets more than a cursory sniff. So it didn't matter how tasty I made the stuff, she was going to have to have it shoved down her throat. *sigh* But she's more alert (I think she's still a little dehydrated, but maybe that's excess skin from the quick weight loss). She feels like a bag of bones. --Barb-- [Posted in FML issue 1116]
