Chin Slave
Since my boy is on baytril & metacam he does not have his appetitie, although he is on the cisapride, he is not eating as much as I would like, so i have decided to "try" to give him critical care.
He absolutely hates it!! The medicine he will take just fine, but when it comes time for the CC syringe he starts squirming & pushing me away.
The most I have been able to get into him is about 1/4 tsp, which is less than 1/2 of one syringe. I tried the burrito thing. I am wondering if the consistancy is too thick?? or if there is something I can add to it??
I dont want him to lose too much weight because this is his second round of antibiotics and along with a diet change, over the last 8 weeks he has lost a total of 100 grams. I know some of it if from not getting all the high fat treats but at this point I am getting very concerned. The vet said he is still at an average weight. I also have started giving him a few drops of Dyne. he hates that too. So if anyone has experience in feeding that please advise on how to get a chin to like critical care and/or dyne!
I read how people cant get thier chin off of the stuff and I cant get any in mine! please help.
