Thank you. I will give her the pumpkin and pick up Nutra Cal. How much do you give? Liza has normal stools and goes her usual 2 times a day and peeing fine. I had been feeding her a few table scraps but that is going to stop. I've been doing that for awhile without problems but will just use a tiny bit of chicken. She is 2 lbs overweight so easy to put weight on this little girl.
I will report on the finds from the vet. Hopefully I can get in tomorrow. Liza finally ate her dinner at 9:00 pm but something is still off. I imagine the Nutra Cal would help with dehydration but I would not let her go like this long anyway. Thanks for your help. So glad I checked in. Love the photos and information here.
