Regarding Molly not eating, I had success when Katie was ill by taking her
regular kibble, adding warm water to it and letting it soak a little bit, then
mushing it up, adding a little of Gerber's second stage chicken baby food, and
hand feeding it to her. The warming of the food adds to the smell of the food
and may stimulate her appetite, and giving her regular kibble (but warmed and
mushed up) seemed to work better than trying to introduce her to something
new. Hope this helps. Also, if Molly likes ferretone, add some to the
mixture. If she won't take it with the baby food added in, then try leaving that
out.
