Hi Adriana,

I’d find another vet or ask your vet to do blood tests ASAP, check how her thyroid is..
also what diet she eating? is she eating the Hills W/d wet & dry vet food?
are you feeding 4 smaller meals a day?
also are you adding fresh foods to her diet or adding wet can food to her diet? I’d increase her food…
I had to feed my boy more then the recommended daily amount years ago, now he’s nilly 10yrs old I dont have too feed him as much… he has IBD

Start to add more food to her diet, I’d add 1/2 a cup more if you feed her dry food or add 1/2 a can of the Hills W/d wet can food a day…
if she is eating the Hills W/d wet or dry food it’s very low in fat this could be why she is thin & she needs more food?? get bloods done, she’s 11yrs old..

Join this face book group, lots of good info & look in their “Files” there should be foods you can feed her wet & dry..
