Have you tried scruff n stuffing? I would hand feed them until they don't want anymore and leave it in the cage overnight.

I did just that!! I just walked in there and Scout is eating it. It's almost gone so I'm assuming they all ate some. I have to run some errands and don't know if I should leave just a bowl of that in there or put some kibble in there as well

Good! Can you keep an eye out and make 100 sure they are all eating it? If not, leave the soup in the cage and a small bowl of kibble, but hand feed them first before you leave. As long as you can confirm that they are all eating it though, then you can leave just the soup in the cage.

Yeah I left some kibble too. After my appts ill watch them 100% of the time. Thy automatically went to it when I put more in bc the bowl was empty - well Sydney was passed out. Watched them closely last night until I fell asleep but it was this morning they were eating it on their own. Will give another update tonight or tomorrow morning!!

Good fuzz! As soon as you can confirm that they are all eating the freeze dried, you can stop giving kibble entirely.

Well scout seems to be hogging it LOL! I'm about to put another bowl down and try to get Sydney to eat it. Though she's a little preoccupied with the tunnels right now. Will keep you posted

Hmm. She hasn't gone up to it so I put her near it and she sniffed it and walked away but it was more like an "I'm not hungry" walk away. So I tried scruff n stuff and after that she licked a little more off the spoon but didnt want any more. Not sure why she's not hungry, since she hasn't eaten since before I took them to the vet this afternoon. I gave her 2 pieces of the kibble to see if she'd eat them and she did. The other 2 chow down on the soup. So I gueSs Sydney is going to be the stubborn one. I don't want to leave a bowl of kibble around in the cage and have the other 2 digress, but I guess I'll have to risk it to make sure she eats.

There are Theodore and Scout happily chowin' down!! Left a little bit of kibble and a lot of the soup in the cage this morning before leaving for work. Will work with Sydney again tonight. Took them to vet yesterday and she was impressed with how healthy and "beautiful" they all are. Just throwing that out there lol

I *think* Sydney ate it today. The kibble was barely touched and all the soup mix is gone. I know she ate bc she has a full-feeling tummy. I have them out now with a fresh bowl and she's shown interest in it, but again I think she already ate. She's snorkeling in her water right now.

Yay for progress. That is a good start. Keep doing what you are doing and as soon as you are 100% sure she is eating it too, stop giving the kibble. Any word on the commercial raw's estimated date of arrival? No rush, just curious.
