Cadbury has NO interest in food.
Vet gave me Canine/Feline Hill's Prescription a/d (usually used toboost appetite after surgery) and n/d (usually used for cancer patientsbut smell is so strong he thought it might get her interested) andpills to crush to help her digest it.
She doesn't want it.
She'll drink from her water dish but snubs her nose at food...all kinds.
I'm syringe feeding her.
Vet said, "Maybe her system is starting to shut down and we're at theend with her." She's 13-14 yrs old. She's down to 5lbs/skin and bones.
Vet wants me to call Monday and let him know what she's doing/not doing.
My question is, how long would you force/syringe feed your pet before you "let her go"?
Wait until she loses interest in people, etc?
Cadbury, when she's awake, will come to me when I walk in the door and she still follows me when we're outside.......
We've had quite a few sleep-overs here with the kids' friends and shedoesn't "hide" from them. She goes to each and every one until somebodypets her.
When she's really ready to go, will she give more obvious signs like wanting to be left alone, not coming when I call, etc?
If I give it a week, maybe she'll go on her own?
If I give it a week, maybe she'll suffer somehow during that time?

What would you do
