Brilliant news - tonight Ziggy struck and fed for the first time!!!!
Yippy!!!!
For those that are unfamiliar with Ziggys problem, we have had him for 2 months, in which time he has had to be assist fed because he was not eating and starting to loose weight.
He also had settling in problems as we put him in a viv and then had to move him into a rub, as he wouldnt settle.
Even though he has been assist fed, he has been offered food before each feed - and once or twice struck but not continued to eat.
This time is the first time that he has showed an interest and hey presto.....he did it.
I'm so excited and hope that this is the start of his independance.  |
