That's true, I probably didn't need to mention the drop, but
she's already thin, and the fact that her weight isn't coming
back up (despite supplementing her diet) is concerning me. To
touch her she is a bag of bones.

I've started using a/d thinned with water and fed with a
seringe.
Does anyone have any thoughts on the quality of this?
(before this it was chicken gravy + ground kibble)

her weight loss over 3 weeks is nothing. A 10 gram
difference
probably just means her weight was distributed a
little differently on the scale. 10 grams = about
1/3 oz.

670 grams = approx 1 lb., 8 1/2 oz., small, but
not terribly so for a female.
