Moo Nieu - The Skinny Cow

For some reason, Troy decided today that he was done with pouches. We have tried all day, and he adamantly refuses to eat them. We have sporadically gotten him to eat “people” food, but mostly he just wants to drink. Not good. We have hundreds of pouches, and it was our main source of nutrition for him. Not to mention that my wife has been freaking out about him not eating all of a sudden. He went from constantly hungry to not hungry at all...overnight.

All that I’ve read says this is normal. He could be bored, going through a growth spurt, or just testing his boundaries. We’re supposed to keep trying, because his interest could fluctuate. We’re also supposed to follow his lead, but it’s nerve-racking when you’re constantly worried about whether he’s eating enough and eating well.

  1. You might try putting the contents of the pouches into his dish and letting him try to eat it with a spoon.
