Poor Dex has come down with a little old tummy bug.. The vet gave me some penicillin and a dropper, assuring me the pleasant banana taste would ensure no problems with feeding it to Dex. One wiff of the mixture and I recognised the memoriable medication I used to take when I was young. And yes, I hated it. So here I am.. After numerous attempts to coax Dex into voluntarily drinking the meds, I am sitting here twice daily, slowly squeezing a mixture between tightly clenched teeth (oh yeh, he really doesn't like this stuff), and trying to control a severly quirming ferret.. To add to it, he isn't allowed to eat for at least 2 or 3 days until it is cured. I feed Ramirez in a seperate room (Although he probably ain't to pleased with me either, due to me having to remove the pellet dish from the cage) but Dex is obviously hungry.. And it's really, really horrible to have him sitting on my shoulder licking my ear in an attempt to get me to feed him. Argh. It's all for his own good, but I feel so nasty doing it.. I hope he has a short memory *smile* [Posted in FML issue 2711]
