I am only online for the next 30 mintues and don't have access to the forum during the weekend.

I have to administer one drop of metcam (I think that is how it is spelt), The vet says I need to put one drop on a treat.

The trouble is Ron is very very picky about what he wants to eat, his taste buds vary everyday and he doesn't have one particular favourity treat.

Is there another way I can administer this medication
 
As long as you get it in his mouth it doesn't matter how you manage :) If its one drop you can even stick it on your finger and pop it in the side of his mouth that way. Just watch his teeth ;)

Have you tried dropping it onto a small piece of Ryvita? I found that worked a treat with Sylvia's antibiotics after her spay... it's also good as it has those holes to drop the medicine in. Might be easier than oral medication (depending on your bun). b-m
 
Think im too late to answer without-halo's question but im pretty sure u can get syringes from pharmacys. Im lucky i can acquire a few from work when i need em :wink:
