Update on Zombie... up until Monday, you still had to stimulate Zombie's mouth opening reflex with a syringe for him to bite down on solid food. This week he started eating his veggie bled from a teaspoon. One step closer to him completely eating on his own again.
This week has been one of celebration. Zombie has started eating solids again. Zombie is a rescue who had to be syringe fed, but this week he again started eating solids.
To get Zombie to eat solids, our daughter has been offering him solid food each time he opens his mouth for the syringe feed, every second day, since he became part of our family in December.
It is really awesome to see her love and persistence pay off. Next step, getting him to eating solid food out of his bowl and not just when offered by hand.
