she hasnt eaten for 3 or so months now, she is 3 now and just hasnt been interested as i have poster a month or so ago.

i have noticed since, she wad doing really yellow poos and always did it when i held her or offered food. but she just ignores it.

2 weeks ago she did a more normal looking poo with black in it. but still no eating. she is slowly loosing weight, now at 370g.

it all atarted with a regurge of a mouse that could have possibly been too large.

any help or advice would me much appreciated. thanks

then ivy should have a better scent of the prey
