         I don’t get it! It was easier to give Ralphy Baytril than what I am giving him now, which is cherry flavored!! I’ve tried, juice, soy milk, milk, added the medicine, nothing works! He knows it’s in there! It is soooooo annoying because I have to wrap him up like a burrito and when he sees the blanket coming he freaks out! It’s still hard to give it to him cuz he jerks his head really fast! My husband has to literally force it in the side of his mouth and even then he doesn’t get all the medicine in him. I am so frustrated!! What do I do?! I thought of maybe putting the medicine in applesauce, haven’t tried that yet. I just wrapped him up and layed him on his back rubbing his head a bit then I put the syringe in, again, didn’t get all the meds in. *sigh* v.v

          I like to pin the rabbit between my knees (lightly of course) and hold down the shoulders with one hand while giving the syringe with the other. It helps to do this with the bunny facing a wall so they have less ability to run away. I find this much easier than the burrito method because you use your body to hold them still and one hand can keep their head in place so they don’t jerk it around so much.

              TMS. I don’t know what the long name of it is just the abbreviated.

                I think Mimzmum had Mimzy on TMS too.
