Bell ate some more cooked ground beef this morning, and took a lamb treat from DH, ate half of it, then spit the rest out onto Penny's bed. Penny was happy to finish it for her.

 

I can't push her on the food. Either she eats or she doesn't. I am keeping a little of everything in the fridge so I can tempt her every couple of hours. It seems that she'll do a little at a time, but not full meals. She looks skeletal, but she has a little energy and this morning she pooped a little poop! Today I am on a mission to find some nutritional yeast on Judy's recommendation, maybe that will help.

 

I am trying to get used to the idea of taking everything day by day, and just enjoying her as long as her poor little body will let us. I want to "fix" her, but I know this can't be "fixed," only managed. So we are managing. Thank you to everyone who has sent us prayers, good wishes and suggestions for help. They are working.

Missing sweet Bell (EMK Bolivar Bell). I'll never forget you.

I hope the Nutritional Yeast helps her appetite as much as is did Emmy. You are both in my thoughts and prayers.
