Subject: Maxiguard

Has anyone tried using Maxiguard with your ferrets? My vet wants me to
use this on my ferrets' gums, but they HATE it! It's no Flagyl, but
they still fight when I try to apply it. (Fox bit through my finger to
warn me off today - ouch!) They don't fight the Petrodex nearly as
much. It seems like it either tastes bad, or it stings when it goes on.

Has anyone had any success with this stuff? Got any advice for how to
apply it successfully, or anything else to use instead?

Thanks,

Roger, Digger (yuck!), Bear (no way!), Fox (this will teach YOU!) and
Sniffles (chitter!)
