A couple weeks ago Flea got into a little mess. Escaped chin + electrical cord = After being fed critical care for awhile she started eating pellets on her own. But getting her to drink wasn't working. I added another water bottle to her cage. One with plain water. The other I tried mixing with apple juice or chamomile with no luck. The only water she was getting is what was mixed with her CC. And a couple times she took water from a syringe. Well I decided to order Life Line from chocolatechinchillas. I fed some through a syringe to Flea. Within a couple hours I saw her drink. So I sprinkled some on her pellets. And since then she seems to be back to normal with drinking on a regular basis now. :thumbs:
