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.

Poncho was one of the most special friends i have ever had. I still remember when my dad had first brought him home he was so tiny that he could fit in the palms of our hands. Poncho loved to run in the snow go camping and eat. He lost his best friend and companion nikita 8 months prior to his death. it makes us happy to know that they are now together again. He was so friendly and loved everyone. Even tiggy & chiko. After nikita passed away poncho and chiko became best friends and never left each others side. even when poncho was getting very sick chiko stood by him cleaning him and laying with him just to let him know he cared. We had many good years with poncho. many great christmas' and other holidays. Every night he would sleep in my bed with me just cuddling. I spent so much time with poncho. And i miss him dearly. I am just comforted knowing that he is in a better place and with his soulmate nikita. we all love and miss you so much poncho. <33
