Well at 5pm last night Nala was her usual self running up and down the stairs.. scoffed her pellets like mad whilst chasing her treatball around with the other two. When i put them to bed at 11pm i give them their veggies and she is usually extremely eager to get them but she refused to go upstairs. I eventually persuaded her to go up but she totally ignored the veggies. I left her for a few mins to see what she would do but she just lay down in the corner. I tried to syringe a few mls of pineapple juice and water down her but most of it ended up in my lap. I also tried giving her a ml of Infacol but again not alot actually ended up in her mouth and she wasnt licking it so it just dribbled out again. Gave her a good belly massage for half an hour just in case too. I hardly slept worried that she wasnt well. This morning she seemed more lively.. came to greet me when i went in their room but when i offerd her some food she hopped away I had to work this morning.. been worried sick.. bf got up and offered her some veggies/pellets throughout the morning. She had a tiny nibble of a piece of brocoli and a tiny piece of carrot but nothing else. When i got home i syringed a bit of pineapple juice into her and she really lapped it up, gave her a belly massage too. Still refused veggies and pellets tho so off to the vets we went. She had her temp, teeth, heart, chest, belly all checked and vet can find no physical reason for her not to eat.. he said.. seems she's just on hunger strike! :roll: I have got some Critical care to give her.. he said to give 4-5mls every 4hrs til she eats for herself. If she isnt eating tomorrow i have to take her in again. Well she lapped the first 4mls up from the syringe when we got home. I took her in the garden to get her to hop around and she just turned around and leapt into my arms!! Now those who know nala thats not her at all.. she hates being handled!! :shock: She keeps laying down next to the sofa im sitting on and i can sit stroking her, which again is not her at all, she usually runs away.
Please please send some vibes for her.. i really want to see her munching like she normally does really soon.. im sooo worried about her. Any ideas what could be wrong please tell me cos im stumped and so is the vet :?
