is it okay to put the paste on like a dandelion leaf or something? this was suggested yesterday, but on the little leaflet thing it says put it in the side of his mouth. but I seem to mess it up every time I try to put it in his mouth because he wont sit still :oops:

Thanks :) xxx
 
I don't know to be honest. My vet just gave me panacur for our rabbits and she had to have someone hold a rabbit while she put it in her mouth. So maybe someone can hold and you can give the medicine?

I've always found my buns like the taste of Panacur once they get used to having the pipette object in their mouth. I used to put a towel on my kitchen counter (ensuring the buns couldn't jump off), give them a stroke to reassure them, hold their head down as if you're stroking their ears and insert the pipette in the side of their mouth and squirt the Panacur. Make sure you've got the correct dosage ready to prevent you from getting flustered if bunny doesn't like it.
