Hello! Our Victoria (posh girl : ) ) is 1 year and 8 months old. usually very fit and healthy, but has got a respiratory infection. It is day 5 of giving her baytril. I feel quite confident with the syringe having nursed sick bunnies in the past. However, I'm not used to the pouch full of food thing! My question is, If she has food in her pouch when I put baytril in will she swallow any of it down? I was nervous about her not coming out of her home again and just did the baytril before she went back into her bed to hide her food. I'm worried now that this precious medicine that she SO needs, has been wasted. The vet has told me to give 0.12 ml once a day. so she has a long time to wait for the next dose. Will she just spit it all out now? As she is so ill, I don't think she is eating much of the food she hides in her bed.
