Raw Patties Day 2

This morning's toilet was cleared by Mr Liow.

According to him, there were both hard and soft stools but in very little amounts.

When I woke up, there was a firm stool about the length of my thumb.

This is day 2 of Primal and till now (9pm), they have not pooped yet. And they have not peed too (??)

They've drank very little water since yesterday (which was normal, I read, of dogs feeding on raw) but I never expected them to drink THAT little water.

I need some help here from raw feeders here: Do I have to 'make' them drink or should I just let them be? They have not peed today, for the whole day!

There are days when they pee only when I'm away (either out of the house, or upstairs) and I have been around the whole day today. Probably when I go upstairs later, the toilet will flood.

I hate having to 'make' anyone do anything. I'm already sick of feeding AN, taking days of rest in between just not caring whether or not she's eating and then feeling worried after that when she doesn't eat because I do not 'make' her. Do I have to 'make' them drink water now?

You know, clearing Baileys' and Maen's shit makes me happier than feeding AN?

Watching them happily chomping on their food makes up for the emptiness each time I feed AN now.

So, yes. I will give Baileys and Maen anything that will make them happy. If only AN will allow me to make her happy with food, I will feed her my flesh if she is hungry for that.

Hello..no need to make them drink water...they will drink when they'er thirsty. With raw, it's different from kibbles which they need lots of water to help digestion. Raw no need.
