I have a baby bearded dragon and it's not eating what should i do??

Question

I was cleaning her cage (my bearded dragon) and I put her in a bowl and then my cat got her bowl and knocked it down when I came back in she was on the floor. that was a few days ago now she won't eat I've looked at other sites and they haven't helped yet and I did what 1 site said to feed her.

Answer 1

maybe her bowl smells like the cat? use a plate for now, maybe mash up some of her favourite foods?They wldnt starve themselves to death-she'l eat wen she's hungry!

Answer 2

wat r u feeding it!!! it needs crickets!

Answer 3

you don't always see them eat, but u should look it up!

Answer 4

What about ringing the Zoo and asking them or the National Parks & Wildlife. Either should be able to help.

Answer 5

She is probably scared hence the not eating. Is she in a cage with a heating lite? If not I would reccomend doing that first. Try to calm her down by holding and petting her. Also try feeding her somthing different, while you're holding her so she feels comfortable.  

Answer 6

try making her mad, get some tongs or something and hold her food in it, and sit there and rub it across her mouth, she will probably shake her head but it normally works if you make them mad. and if not, you might want to take her to a reptile vet, because your cat may have done something you don't know about.
