He's done 3 tiny poos! He's due another syringe feed in a minute. I'm really hoping he'll start feeding himself soon.
I can't him to swallow any critical care :? He just drools it all back out. The vet said he needs around 0.10mls per feeding every 2 hours but he won't eat any
try just a tiny bit, the smallest amount possible. See if he will swallow it rather than overloading his mouth. Sebastian used to just drool his out :roll:
I have tried tiny amounts but he just sits there with it in his mouth :roll:
Floppy done this when he had bloat at the weekend. I gave up and popped him on the floor, and he sat there and swallowed it. I had to feed him a little, and let him down to swallow, and give him more a short bit later. Maybe you could try that, just in case it works for you too.
Don't know why he wouldn't swallow when I had him on my knee :roll:.
Could you try somthing he might prefer the taste of, like baby food there are some carrot or fruit ones.
Try massaging his troat to try and encourage him to swallow.
Poor you what a distressing time fof you, I wish you the best of luck with him.
