Hi Liz

Can you not mix the taurine in with their food when you give them their
portions? That is what I do. I also add ox heart and liver when we
grind chickens for the ferrets, heart is rich in taurine.

Another taurine product that I know can be found here:

People on the skunk list that I belong to swear by this.

Good luck.

Best wishes
Ulrike
