Maybe I'm just weird, but *I personally* would tend to just put meds directly into the ferret, then give them something immediately afterward that they consider a treat to make the whole thing worthwhile. Also, I don't put the meds in the front of the mouth, unless they really like the taste. Instead, I put it at the back corner of their jaw, so they get as little as possible on their tongue, where their tastebuds are. They don't like it. Nope. Almost like being friends with the household cat. But they tolerate it and move on. Of course, you could *also* try taking them over to Alexandra's place at med time and distract them with the sound of all them froggies she has been collecting, and they won't even notice you're giving them meds! :) --- Todd and the Fuzzbutt Rodeo Clowns http://leuthold.lancaster.pa.us/Page2/ [Posted in FML 5606]
