It is cute to see, but it can be annoying as can be too.
Rose is so scent and taste driven that even though she's been on the same meds for over a month now she still anoints every time (she's on 3 at the moment). When you want the meds in her instead of on her, it becomes a challenge. I have found that if a mealworm is given fast enough, it may distract her from anointing. It usually works, but not always, sometimes the urge is just too strong. And sometimes she starts to eat the mealworm and the anointing urge wins... then I get medicine/mealworm foam.
