I don't know what the hell I was up to, thinking I could get away with
not syringe feeding a starving cat! My only excuse is that I'm so beat
up right now that I was wishfully thinking that miraculously she'd start
eating on her own. I feel like silly putty in the hands of an
overweight, chocolate smudged, 6 year old.
Anyway the nice lady that's helping with holistic remedies sent me this
assist-feed recipe to try. I've already started Grace on it, (it's
delicious, btw). I used chicken BF instead of A/D. I thought I'd post
it for anyone that might be in need. Not quite sure of the exact
measurement of a "smidgen" :)
* 1/4 cup plain chicken broth (I prefer it fairly watery and not too
much fat
* couple of drops of Pet Tinic
* 2 smidgens of KMR
* 2 smidgens of Slippery Elm Bark powder (to coat the stomach for nausea)
* 1 smidgen of Acidophilus powder (Kyo-Dophilus)
Of course, the ingredients can be varied depending upon the needs of the
individual cat and the circumstances, like adding or alternating:
* a bit of Hills A/D might be beneficial, or
* a bit of Colostrum
