A REASON FOR THE X-RAYS WOULD BE TO DETERMINE ANY BONE DAMAGE FROM THE LACK OF CALCIUM BEING ABSORBED INTO THE BODY. NOT ALL GLIDERS ABSORB NUTRIENTS THE SAME. TRY ENSURE,
VANILLA FLAVOR, AS PART OF THE DIET AND ADD NON FAT YOUGURT MIXED WITH THEIR FAVORITE FRUIT AT LEAST ONCE A WEEK FOR HEALTH COAT, SHINE AND GLIDERS.
: : did he take xrays of her bones? what are you feeding her? exactly. as quick as a response as possible please

: He didn't feel that x-rays were needed because she was really mobile and looked perfectly healthy that day. She eats a diet of Leadbeaters mix, assorted fruits and veggies, tofu, mealworms, and baby food. Sometimes I do give her seeds and nuts and dry light science diet cat food, but rarely. I've been watching her closely to make sure that she eats, and have been trying to feed her foods that are higher in calcium.

: Thanks for any input you might have!
