At last!!!!!
I was given feeding tip by an expert. Which was sardines. Scent with juice, and leave a strip of sardine there too with mouse. Which worked a treat!!! Took 2 pinkies. And as I went to check on a corn eating, she ate the sardine too!! Hope that won't be a problem! The guy did say she could eat it as an alternative to mouse! Didn't know she would take both |

Yay! Great that she has now eaten, funny enough, Huffle has eaten both his the wrong way round too. Actually he tried to eat sideways but being on small mice he couldn't manage that lol

She always has gone backward with everything she's eaten, except the piece of sardine that she struggled to eat sideways!! |

Yay! Good news. A good tip about the sardine - I might have to try that one with Bob, as he's having a hunger strike at the moment |

I never thought it would work, but the guy who told us about it said it always worked on the tri colour easterns he had! Not a great combination but hey ho |

It worked again today. She took a small mouse dipped in sardine. She was gonna eat the sardine again. She had her mouth open about to take it but changed her mind and took the curly haired mouse instead

Gonna have to try the sardine thing on Bob... he last ate at the end of March, so it's not a big deal yet, but I'd feel happier if he'd eaten for me! |
