Best way to give metacam

bunny babe

Wise Old Thumper
:roll: Hubby was doing meds earlier for Homer and he must of had a bit of metacam on his finger and brushed his lip with it. He said it was numb for a while after :lol: It was a few hours ago now and he is OK :lol:

It led us to thinking, what is the best way to get metacam into a bunny? We normally put it onto a piece of basil. Would it be better mixed in fresh pineapple juice or water?
 
Most buns seem to like the taste of metacam, so it shouldn't be difficult to give. My buns on metacam need quite a high dose, so I prefer to give it via a syringe to accurately measure it out and reduce waste.
 
Alvins gets put on a tiny bit of banana & honey mush.. not onr drop gets wasted.. ive tried other stuff to hide it on and it gets wasted.

when hes refusing all food it goes in a syringe and its a true battle of the wills.. more gets lost from a syringe than hidden on food :roll:
