Thread: Chicken Hater !!

Had an awfull last 12 hours :(

after giving willow a few of the new hills kibbles i was going to change her on to just to check she liked them ,and introducing some hi-life ocean variety we had 2 very runny poo's last nite about 2 hrs apart ,decided to take away any food and just leave water down over nite ,this morning after running round the house with my 7 year old before school like a pair of lunatics she has been sick :( a lovely yellow greasy consitancy with a couple of very small pieces of the fish in it ,i feel like such an ogre ,she seems all fine and is jumping all over the work tops looking for food now ...........

Should i not feed her till this evening do you think and maybe small amounts of her normal kibbles or is it time to boil a bit of chicken or whitefish & some rice ?,its definately a food issue and even tho she aint thrilled with the royal canin babycat 34 she does graze on it ok during the day and the poo's altho soft are quite formed ,should i maybe try introducing wet foods when she is a little older ?

totally confused & feel like crap at mo and feel like im doing more harm than good for her..........:(

Plain rice with a small amount of white fish in very small amounts but often for 3 days; then gradually reintroduce normal food. Last time I had to do this with Buddy someone on here suggested adding an egg to the fish and rise mix and he lapped that up. Has a furball put in an appearance? Buddy is terrible for a couple of days before he produces one, sloppy poops and throwing up undigested food and stinky yellow gunge; furball appears and he just sleeps for the next 24 hours and is then fine. If you worried a trip to the vets might be worth it xx

Sorry to hear about Willow's - and your - predicament.
Has she been checked for Giardia? Or any other medical issues?

Well willow has made me look like a complete liar today ,we kept her away from food all last nite and this morning till midday i then boiled a chicken thigh after removing the bone and skin (i wanted 1 last try with the chicken before i went into town to buy a lump of cod ) i then weighed out some of her usuall kibbles which i added some warm water too and made into a sort of paste, i then weighed out 5-10 grams of chicken thigh meat with a very small amount of the kibble paste and gave her that amount every 2 hrs ....to say she absolutely went mad for it is an understatement bowl was being cleared in no time and was getting very excited at me dishing it up and best of all no sickness and no poo as yet to inspect but its been over 24hrs since her last poo so we are hopefull it could be normal ,and she seems full of energy in fact we cant even hold her for more than a few minutes before she gets bored and fights to get down to attack the nearest toy or just do the wall of death around the living room ,it is such a great feeling to see her enjoying life ,we are going to continue with the little and often advice given and increase ammounts and time between feeds but keep it to t least 4 times a day i think this has helped a lot she deffinately has a more eager appetite for some reason

Have oredered some fortiflora today to possibly help with her digestive system and we have a visit to the vets next week for a booster jab so will ask vet to give her a good once over then ,but fingers crossed things are looking very good tonite

Will keep everyone updated ,and thanks again for all your advice & support we are so gratefull
