Wise Old Thumper
I'm at a loss as to how to get Maurices meds into him. He's on Metacam and Septrin (which is banana flavoured).....but unlike any other bun I've medicated....he seems to hate both of them.
trying to syringe them in upsets both of us....he hates it and gets VERY cross....this morning he bit me
I've tried mushing banana with them (worked for 3 days) and also soaked pellets (worked once) but he seems to know and refuses to eat them. I've also tried baby food too....which he wouldnt touch.
I'm going to try sugar snap peas today and see how that goes....but I really am starting to run out of ideas. He's on 3ml of septrin twice a day....which is quite a lot if you have to get it into something.
Anyone got any suggestions? I really don't want to have to syringe it in....I'm worried he will start getting bad tempered and stroppy with me all the time if you know what I mean.....but if I have to then I will His health is more important to me that wheter he likes me.
Would be so much easier and less stressfull if I could just inject it all
