Finicky eater

Presley and Diesel are still at Daddy's house. Steve reports that Presley has been turning her nose up at her food. I thought maybe the Maitake Extract was upsetting her tummy, but he said she is refusing to eat the canned food.

This is crazy because about a month ago after she came home from the hospital after the bad reaction to chemo, she refused to eat her kibble. That's when we introduced the canned food, which she has loved ever since.

She also had really bad diarrhea the first night he had them. Now her poops are more solid but she is being a very finicky eater. She'll eat most of her kibble and any of Diesel's kibble that Steve gives her and not much, if any, of the canned food. Of course, she'll eat her treats.

Something is clearly upsetting her tummy because it still gurgles very loudly and she has really bad gas. The diarrhea is a bit troubling. This is like a puzzle.

Steve also reported that Presley only woke him up once in the middle of the night with her moaning. He lets her sleep on the bed, which he has put on the floor so she doesn't have to jump up or down. Steve says when he heard Presley moaning, he looked up to find her staring at him. So he laid his hand on her and after that, she slept soundly through the rest of the night. He thinks she just wants attention.
