A few months ago, Sammy lost quite a lot of weight. Although he has been eating normally since, he has never put that weight back on and is rather thin. His weight has remained constant at just over a kilo, making him even lighter than little Tom.
What I am wondering is, whether it would be a good idea to try to increase his weight by syringe-feeding him or whether this would just make him feel full and eat less. He currently eats well (hay, pellets and fresh veg), poos and wees normally and generally seems to be happy and well apart from being rather underweight.
What do you think? (he is 5 1/2)
