How can I get Tulip to fatten up?

Mama Doe
She is still really skinny:( She is on ABX so I am trying to avoid sweet things.

The vet thinks she has had pneumonia for a long time so I guess she has also been underweight for a long time. I think the RSPCA should be called on her old owner as it is becoming apparent that she may never recover:cry:

On the search on here it said oats soaked in water but is this really a good idea?

All blood tests and x-rays came back clear, she just has pneumonia.

Would it be wise to give her unlimited pellets as she has two table spoons (and a bit:oops:) a day, plus a handful of grass in the morning and greens at night. I am in the process of weaning her onto Savoy Cabbage, so want to wean her onto something next that is really fattening.

She weighs 1.68 kg and looks horribly thin:cry:
 
Porridge is suggested on here......:wave:
IMO if you give too many pellets it affects the poops and sticks to fur..you dont need that in this weather.:roll:
Has your vet suggested anything??? Can you not give them a ring???
