Last night I watered down her kibble. Princess still wouldn't eat the
softened kibble but would lap up the gravy, watery part. She wouldn't take
any chicken baby food or Ferovite which she usually likes. When my husband
came home, she played with him and chirped like she was just fine. It had
still been over 48 hours since she had eaten her food, starting with Sunday.
To sum everything up, this morning I was awoken to the sound of Princess
eating kibble. She also ate some while I was at work.

She hasn't been grinding her teeth, vomiting, pawing at her mouth. Her
poops (the few that she has had in the past 2 days) have been normal- not
dark or tarry or loose. She did start rubbing her nose on the carpet every
time she lapped up some of the kibble gravy or Ferretone.

She's never just not eaten anything for a whole day. I'm still keeping an
eye on her. The vet is on vacation this week. Just odd, but seems to be
okay for now.

Thanks,

Tara
