Coco is doing better than he was, he's moving about more now and climbing
the cage. He still doesnt appear to be eating much but is eating a little
and is drinking. He looks more healthier in himself but still underweight.
Took him to the vets and vet was puzzled as teeth ect are all fine. Will
write more later, hubby needs me

I'm glad to hear Coco has improved. Could you try him on some foods like
oatmeal with honey or jam mixed in, avocado pear, cream cheese or baby
deserts to try and boost his weight a little. I've found even the ratties
with the littlest appetites chow down on these foods.
I hope he is back to his old self soon and you find out what has been ailing
him.

Even when Rebel was really poorly he always found the energy to eat a bit of
Rice Pudding or Custard. Try anything April!! Be like me have half a dozen
cans open and your husband looking over your shoulder saying who is going to
finish off all those cans if he doesn't eat them all. Bloody Men!!!
