This set off some warning bells for me-- when Amelia acted this way, it was
because an ulcer had developed, and she didn't want to eat because of the
pain. I had also coincidentally opened a new bag of food and lost some
valuable time thinking that it was just because of the new bag that she
wasn't eating. I would seriously think about the possiblity of ulcers in
your guys and talk to your vet about it. Maybe I'm being a worrywort, but I
learned the hard way that ulcers can be very serious business and I don't
want to see others have to go through the same lesson.
best wishes,
