Poor Merlin and Luna have been sneezing and coughing like anything recently so we had a trip to the vets (minus one favour point already) who diagnosed a touch of pasturella, Merlin had it a bit the worse with a very wet nose, poor thing!
The worse part though – antibiotics. I inwardly cringe whenever they are given a course of medication. Luna is an absolute dream and all I need to do is offer the syringe and she’ll suck and gnaw quite happily. Bonus points for a piece of fruit for being a good girl afterwards!
Merlin. is. a. nightmare. I hope Luna would rub off on him but it always ends the same way, I have to ‘bunnito’ him with a blanket and hold him between my knees and have the partner give him the meds. Its like some bizzare rodeo everytime. Anyway, I’m now being ignored so hard I’m starting to doubt my own existence, and Merlin has gone to his favourite sulk spot under the bed. Even when he comes out for hay he gives me the haughtiest looks.
Sigh…. only five more days to go!
