Hi,
Bought "Bunion" yesterday, who seemed to settle in well.
She is 10 months old, and moved onto Fuzzies 6 weeks ago.
She had only ever had 1 per feed before, but took 2 quite happily.
She only kept them down for around an hour or so, then brought them both back up.
Is she just not yet settled in, or do I need to be worried ??
Also, how long should I leave her before feeding again ?
(she last fed 17/05/2009 - 1 Fuzzy)
All comments/advice greatly appreciated)

Leave her for about 10-14 days now before feeding.

Ideally when they are brought home, they shouldn't be fed or handled for about a week.
After a regurge, leave for at least 10 days before trying to feed again, so they can build digestive fluids up.

Also, remember after feeding, not to handle for about 48hours after feeding, as this could also cause a regurge.

as Kehhl says, leave her for 10-14 days, she will be ok going this long...

when you feed again offer her something small then as long as it stays down go back to 1 per feed again for a few feeds...
