Default Help! Diet for Chewie

Chewie needs to be on very digestible foods and he will not eat the AD prescription food and he hasn't eaten since I took him home yesterday afternoon.

I called Doc and he said, "Well, feed him something else!"

ROFL, okay. I got the impression that he had to eat that food.

Any suggestions for tempting food for chewie that is easily digestible????

Try googling dogfood recipes maybe? I think there's probably one made with chicken and rice and some other ingredients. I know there's one for cats. Good luck with Chewie!

Default Eggs=protein

soft boiled egg..or scrambled egg......when Alex was healing from his stomach surgery...he would eat that....I had to hand feed him a few bites, then he finished on his own...
.
I also kept a electric heating pad on low in his crate, which was covered with a blanket on three sides to keep him out of any drafts.....good luck...we're with ya!

Thanks so much you guys.

Ms. Alffe, I bought a few different kinds of baby food at lunchtime. Several different cat foods. He didn't want anything to do with any of them except the one thing I know he likes.... the soupy 'gravy' that comes in canned cat food that has flakes or bites of food in it. BUT he has never liked the food part, just the soupy gravy.

When I got there at lunch, he vomited a lot of really deep golden yellow bile.

and he's never been a scrap eater. Not even yummy pieces of chicken. He just isn't interested in what I eat. also found out that he ate on his own one time at doc's, the restof the time they force fed him.
