It seems that we have our bouts with little miss Nutter Butter when she decides she no longer needs her Henry’s blocks. She has had times when she’s only eating the blocks and nothing else, then she does good with eating both the blocks and her veggies, and here lately I’m having trouble getting her to eat either. She was eating Boo Balls in there too for a good few weeks but now she’s turned her nose up to them as well. I have found many of her HHB hidden just about every day for this past week so now I’m desperate.
I need advice on how to make them more appealing or something to get her to eat them. IE: peanut or almond butter?? Can she have either of these? We’ve tried coconut oil and she just licks the coconut oil off and throws the block aside like a piece of trash.
I also have calcium from Henry’s and the vitamins. Am I able to sprinkle some calcium on any of the food I can get her to eat to at least make sure she is getting something?
My next plan if I can’t figure out anything else is to make her blocks homemade and see if that will be more appealing.
Also to add she is not showing any signs of weight loss, no loss of energy (still her rambunctious self), and she does not really nap during the day. A handful of times she has taken a break for about ten minutes. She gets up when I get up and she is ready for bed by 430 every night that’s when she starts getting irritated with me being in the room and she’s ready for her hammock.
Also also. Let me just say our Nutter Butter is NOT a normal little squirrel. She absolutely hates textures worse than I do and I have OCD. She won’t even humor an avocado or anything slightly mushy/sticky (other than coconut oil).
I would appreciate any suggestions but definitely would appreciate advice on the peanut/almond butter because that’s the last “appetizing” thing I have I think I could try. Thank you all!
