You could try giving her some NutriBAC df. It is supposted to help with digestion and help appetite I believe.

Still not showing any improvement  . I have tried live food but she makes no attempt to eat it, even when it is 1 inch away. She is starting to look pale now. I am still giving the formula. I have some Nutri-bac ordered. It should be here today. I will try that as well. Thanks to all for trying to help and all of your kind words.

For those of you that have followed us through this, I am sorry to say that we lost Tigger during the night. I tried to feed her yesterday evening at which she had what I can only refer to as a seizure. She was still alive after that, but extremely weak and lethargic, kind of a post-ictal phase if you will. I checked on her before I went to sleep only to find her on her back. She still had a heart beat at that time. I gently placed her on her belly on her rock under the Ceramic Heat Emitter. When I woke this morning I found her in the same spot, only no heart beat. I know that I did all I could, but still hate to see her go. I am quite sure she must have been suffering, so at least she has peace now. Thank you all for your kind words and advice. I am so glad to have been able to turn to each of you.
Angel

Angel I am so sorry to hear this. To lose an animal is always hard. Unfortunately some of them are born just not meant to make it.

Angel, I was afraid I was going to look on this thread and read sad news. I'm so sorry you lost Tigger - as Merlin said, some are just born and are not meant to survive. While I know this will not do much to ease your pain at this time, I hope you know that you obviously did all you could for the little one and put a lot of love her way. She is over the rainbow now with all the little ones we have lost, running happy and healthy. I wish you and daughter well, you are in our thoughts.
