She didn't seem keen for her breakfast this morning. Instead of being
encouraged upstairs by me waving a pouch in front her - so she can eat it alone - I had to carry her upstairs. She refused her food. Totally. I thought "Uh, uh, here we go" :-( having been down the CRF path with some of my whippets. When they refuse to eat and almost nothing tastes nice enough to encourage their appetite. I felt despondent. I thought well, despite the renal food, it's not stopping her deteriorating very quickly. UNTIL. I noticed a couple of small feathers in the kitchen reminscent of a collared dove.. I looked under the kitchen table which has a long tablecloth on it. Sure enough, there was a 2/3rds eaten dove under there. She was just too full of dove to eat her breakfast! She has eaten the remainder now, did not want her dinner and is curled up snoring on my chair. I'm glad I checked with the vet that it's okay for her to eat collared doves, it is. Phew. I would not know how to stop her even if it wasn't. polonca12000...
