GOOD NEWS! Well....I'd hold off on those snuggles for awhile - how about an ear scritch instead? I imagine a bit of crankiness is to be expected, the poor little girl.

GOOD NEWS! Make sure to cook the rice REALLY well - add a bit extra of water and cook it longer than normal. It will be easier for her to digest. You could use low sodium chicken broth for part of the water, also. You could also blend it into mush (that's likely what I would do under these circumstances - at least to get her going on eating). No fat or skin with the chicken - you can cook it with both, but don't feed her any fat or skin.

It sounds like she's doing much, much better - it must be those lucky sardines Bamboo got, LOL!
