Amber's appetite
The last week or so, Amber has not been eating very much. When I was at
the vets with Tiger I asked him if there was anything I could give ti Amber to spike her appetite. He gave me some Cyproheptadine pills with the suggestion to give her 1/2 a pill once a day. Not wishing to "pill" her, I split the pill into quarters and mixed two pieces with her canned food last night. She didn't eat much but I think she ate the pieces. This morning she ate a normal breakfast. ---MIKE--- In the White Mountains of New Hampshire (44° 15' N - Elevation 1580') |

Glad to hear it's helping Amber - any ideas about why she wasn't eating as much - a bad tooth maybe? Christine |
