There is an old, closed thread about this, so making a new one.  What I've found, that when your rodent is only on okay for hunger, you can keep giving it treats till it's full and hopefully it won't die.  I'm on my third rodent in as many days ( all the others died of starvation just after they were content and full, left the room for a minute and on returning, they had no options to feed) so this one, I hope to keep alive by constantly keeping it full with treats!  I shall report back my findings.  But please can this be fixed because it's not like we're negelecting them for long periods of time, they just get blocked by a bug (presumably a bug) from being given food.  If that's part of the gameplay, then that's cruel, inhumane and unrealistic.  Thank you.

Edit to add: I can confirm that feeding treats every few minutes solves the problem.  However, they should be able to eat the food from their dish.  These critters are hard work, but it's not impossible (if you can be bothered!). 

I do not work For EA, but I do like to help people if I can
Keep on simming and have fun!
