You can try any high quality canned cat food. A/D itself is okay but also
not a long tern good thing. I would supplement of course with Ferret Vite
or a similar product to make things more complete. Personally, when I
hospitalize I make up a syringable or spoon feedable concoction using Dried
ferret foods (+/= cat food) that I soak in hot water, then add variety of
things they might like in canned formula including A/D, I also use ferret
tone (or similar Fatty acid supplement) and a good healthy tablespooon of
peanut butter for added flavor (only if they don't have a tendancy of
allergies). Then I serve portions warm. Sometimes at serving I fold in a
teaspoon of baby food. This way you have used things with all the things
your baby needs. If she eats it, then freeze it in ice cube trays and take
one out when you need to feed her, and it will last longer. Hope this
helps.
