well i gave momo some mealies lastnight with her meds and she was trying to eat them but they kept falling back out of her mouth and she seemed to give up and not eat them. i didnt count her food as ahe has been eating ok but today it looked as though she hadnt eaten at all.
i think im going to have to take her to be put down tomorrow as i cant have her suffering. i will count her food tonight to be sure but its not looking good. my question is is there any way to feed her with syringe? if so what do i feed her?

Hi pammie
There is a chicken soup you could make. it is just boiled chicken and a little water, put all of this (not the bones but the skin is ok) into a blender. it should be quite liquid and use a syringe to put into your little on'e mouth very slowly.
They also like honey (but it's bad for them) but you could put a tiny amount into water to make sure she has a drink.
If I've got this wrong I'm sure everyone else will say
