Hi everyone
Please can anyone suggest how I can get Sid to eat again
He is a 10 mth old Texel who had his teeth clipped on 8 Jan
following this he would not eat his pellets and we have been syringe feeding
Recovery four times a day since! He did get to the stage of eating small amounts
of cucumber, cabbage and parsley.
About two weeks ago he stopped eating these things and going to his water bottle
his tooth spur had grown back and was clipped again but the only food and water
he is taking is from the syringe and this is barely maintaining his weight at
720g (1.6 pounds)
How can I interest him in eating veg and pellets again. I have tried soaking the pellets
and tried different pellets but he is not interested
Any advice would be welcome, I fear we shall lose him
Many thanks
Angela and Sid
