Sick Dogs and Cats that won’t Eat – Pet Tip 252
We all know how important nutrition is to good health. Food gives us fuel for energy and allows us to do things that we usually take for granted. The same goes for animals. However, when an animal is sick, or is in the hospital, it can often be very tricky to get them to eat properly. The term “anorexia” means that an animal is inappetent, uninterested in food, and has stopped eating. It is very important to keep the calories up in a sick patient since this is the time they need them the most. Nutritionists have calculated formulas for energy requirements for different sized animals that are healthy.

We wish we could have told you,
in words you'd understand,
We wanted you to stay with us.
This wasn't what we'd planned.
We wish somehow to tell you,
How empty we now feel.
A part of us went with you,
A part that time can't heal.
We wish we'd once more hear your,
soft, sweet breath
to throw your ball again
and stroke your lovely head.
We tried to do right by you angel
We tried to hold on tight
But hanging on to you just wasn’t right
We were with you to the end baby girl
We wish we had you here with us,
to fill this empty space.
But one day we'll be together
in a far, far better place.
Mommy and Daddy love you Magpie
