Welcome to "Please Feed Me", a website dedicated to the rehabilitation and refeeding
of horses suffering from advanced starvation. All information on this site has been
gathered over a period of 10 years of animal rescue experience, primarily with equine
patients. Please understand that the information offered is only through personal
experience. Every case of starvation is different and unique in its own way, The
reasons why an animal deteriorates into such a horrific and complicated condition is
complex. If the animal still has the ability to digest food and has not advanced into
organ failure there is hope. The road to recovery is time consuming, exhausting and at
times heartbreaking. The reason for this website is to give the support needed to fight
for a life. You must always ask for the assistance of a trusted veterinarian in times
where you have any question regarding recovery and understand there are many ways of
refeeding a starving horse. There are times when professional animal caregivers should
be involved such as a large animal hospital. Often a newly rescued horse can remaine in
their new home and do just fine under the care of their new owners. I hope this
information helps you to decide step by step what you should do...
