Baytril to pineapple juice ratio

Kimi is back on oral Baytril again :(
The last time she had it I just added it to her drinking water but the vet has said no I can't do that this time.
I have read of people mixing it with fresh pineapple juice which I would like to try but I'm not sure at what ratio to do it without it affecting the medication, she is on 1.5ml.
If anyone has answers I would be very grateful.
 
Does she like banana? The easiest way to give baytril is to mash up a slice of banana and mix the baytril up. They think it's a yummy treat! Either that or put it in a small piece of wholemeal bread, let it dry out a bit then feed it to them :wave:
 
Thanks ripminnie I tried that last time but she is far too clever for any of that :lol:
I'm afraid this course has got be syringed directly into her mouth some how :?
 
I have been mixing it with a little Hipp apple, mango and peach baby food and syringing it. The rabbits haven't really liked it but most of it goes down.

Wrap her up tight in a towel. Then pop the syringe gently to the side of her mouth and drop little bits at a time itl take a little longer but you'll get it in :)
