Right now, I have a bunch of pills broken into eighths, and this
evening I dissolved one in water, tried to get her to take it in a
spoon, plain (no chance), then gave it to her with a syringe and got
most of it spit back onto my face, shirt, etc... So I dissolved a
second dose, put a little pinch of nupro powder in it, and actually
got her to lick it off the spoon without an argument. YAY!
Thanks everyone! Hopefully she'll be back to normal soon, but at least
I know we're on the right track now. :-)
