31g! So tiny! But yes, my girl was super skinny. I've finally got her eating rat fuzzies and she's doing marvelously! Slow and steady with her. She's turned into my best eater. I bet she would eat every day if I let her. Just be patient with your rescue. Start with small meals and slowly work up. If you are patient and don't over-feed her frail body, she'll pull through and be just fine!
