i fed julius tonight - she did not want to eat in her cage for some reason.. i usually always feed her in her cardboard box - but the last time i fed her, i fed her in her tank. this time i tried and she would not eat, she stalked the prey in her tank - and even struck once but missed. after that she had no interest in there.

i decided to put her in her box with the mouse, and i didnt even have time to put a cover on the box before she had already struck and was killing the mouse.

i put the cover on and went into the bathroom to change her water bowl - when i found one of my cats had got the door open and had pushed the top of the box off. i called him and he freaked out and ran out of the room - knocking the box upside down and julius onto the floor - at which point she dropped the dead mouse and now refuses to touch it.

is she ever going to eat again? i am worried that she is going to decide not to eat again, and now i have a dead mouse and i don't know what to do with it

help!

thanks,
barry
