My goose stopped walking about 3 weeks ago. We brought her to the vet and she was diagnosed with bumblefoot and prescribed clavamox 500 mg 3 x daily for 2 weeks. She finished her prescription about a week ago and the doctor rechecked her and took her off antibiotics. Her feet have been wrapped to decrease pressure on the sores and they are almost completely gone.
She is obviously still in pain and is eating less and less, to almost nothing now. At this point I'm creating a mash and mixing it with liquid b vitamins and syringe feeding her every few hours.
At times she will bite at food but then it sort of falls out of her mouth. I've tried all the usual treats, watermelon, romaine. A week or two ago she would eat it while she was sitting in my lap and now nothing.
How do I get her to start eating again?
Thanks!
