We tried it and got the usual gagging reaction. Ditto banana. The best
trick I've found is to draw a little linatone in the syringe before and
after the flagyl. Yes, we're tricking the little weasels, but at least
they don't aspirate.

Oh, and yeah, they still hate the flagyl and spit some up, but it mostly
goes in them.

I am so glad none of my ferrets need flagyl right now.

All the best,
Caity and the non-stop nine
