Anyone know a good spa or resort for Igs??

Posted by Booger's Dad on January 11, 2000 at 12:18:49:

3 weeks post-op, and Booger is still refusing food, despite appetite stimulants and vitamin injections. I think that force-feeding her her medicine (and some food) is stressing her out. Is there a better way to coax a subborn Ig into eating, other than pulling the mouth open and sticking food in? We've tried a variety of foods that used to be her "favourite", but all are refused. She seems to want to struggle more and more each day, and this is worrying me. I don't want to put any undue stress on her, but I also want her to get better.
