Hah..I just read this about the towel...lol...after I wrote back to a previous post...i should read thru everything before i reply but once again im impatient...lol
I also have a syringe...from when I had guinea pigs and had to syringe feed the sick ones. :( Definitely going to try that! Thank you SO much for all the tips! This is GREAT! Hugs Rebecca One other tip that might work today, Rebecca. You might try crushing the pill into powder, and then put it in a little bit of water or tuna water, and by little bit, I mean like a cc. A medicine cup usually works best for mixing such a small amount. Then draw it all up in a syringe and have it ready. While holding Brooklyn in a towel, open the side of his mouth where his back teeth don't quite meet. Put the syringe in that little spot, and tilt his head back and squirt. He will struggle, but hold firmly. Even if he gags a little, you will get some down. If he bites down, he can only bite the syringe. That way you don't have to get liquid and have pills you will never ever use again, and have wasted money. I bet the liquid won't taste any better than the pill, anyway. You can get a syringe from the pharmacy. I watched my vet give a pill to my cat once, with a wand thing with a slot at the end to hold the pill. It was over in a half a second! I don't even think the cat realized it had taken a pill! Anybody use those before? Let us know what happens. He will be mad, but not for long. Sandy
