Okay the first day of his meds, I was able to get most of it down him by putting a drop of it on each leaf as he ate.
The second day I was able to sneak the syringe in his mouth when he went to bite a leaf, and most of the meds in his mouth in one squirt.
The third day, he refused to eat when I was sitting there. He was not going to be tricked again, and was not going to take a bite of food as long as he could see me. So I put a little bit on each leaf of his food and left him. He ate a few leaves but not much, as he really hates that medicine and doesn't want to eat anything covered in it.
Day four was supposed to be the last day of this round of meds (only to do this again in three weeks). I tried to pry his mouth open. No go. So I just left him a little bite of tomato to see if he'd eat that (he's a picky eater), with no meds on it. He ate that, but wouldn't eat his greens, even with OUT the meds on it. Didn't I say he was stubborn?!?
So today, since he liked that tomato, I cute up a baby tomato and put a drop of medicine in each peice. Would it surprise you if I say he won't eat it now?!?!?!
So I've wasted two doses of medicine. And I don't know how to get it in him. Little bugger!
