To: Genevieve & Cliff, Pixie & Max I have had great luck giving powdered medication (or crushed tablets) by mixing the medication with chicken baby food. I usually put about a teaspoon of chicken baby food in a dish and heat it up for about 5 seconds (or until slightly warm), especially if it's right out of the refrigerator. Then I sprinkle the powder on top and mix well. I don't like to use anything sweet such as Karo syrup or Nutrical because it could cause problems if your ferret has blood-sugar problems (from insulinomas you may not know about). I know that fruits are somewhat hard for ferrets to digest, so I wouldn't use those on a regular basis (I must admit though that I do give raisins as a treat occasionally). I like to reserve Linatone as a treat. I'm sure different things work for different ferrets. I like using chicken baby food because I know that it mostly just has protein and a little fat and doesn't cause problems in small amounts. Good Luck! KR [Posted in FML issue 0848]
