Last night she only took part of formula and thismorning I could only coax her to take a few dringks.. she is hydrated. she is just not wanting to eat. and is still at 45 grams.. but she ate well yesterday up to her last feeding last night. I gave her fluids just incase. I will try to feed her in about an hour to see if she will eat. I have a dr appt soo she wont eat again till lunch.. any Ideas?? :shakehead :Love_Icon

Put her up to your ear and listen for wheezing or clicking.....lack of appetite is one of the first symptoms of pneumonia....

If that's not the case, is the formula hot enough? :dono

I did that I did not hear any but she does do that clicking while and after she eats and I have been watching her close for that.. i have had other rehab squirrels make that clicking sound during eating before and they were fine, but before and inbtween she does not make it.. should I put her on smz just incase? and her formula was warm as it usualy is. she is not even ruting for the food. like she dont want any. I left my stupid phone somewhere last night and I wont have it till haftermy dr apt..grrrr

just tried again..:shakehead she just wont eat, I guess I will let her rest and give her fluids for not and try again next feeding.. she is not weezing or clicking.. just a little winey. she should have atleast gained 1 to 2 grams since yesterday. she ate well up to last night and nothing this morning. grrrr I dont like when my babies get sick. is she too young for the corn suryp? should I try to see isf she needs surger and give her some on her lips?

Very young ones can be very stubborn when it comes to diet change.
Sometimes you need to be persistant.
