If you've read my other post, you'll know that Yoshi's bacteria is a little out of balance. Now I have to give him two different medications once a day for 2 weeks. He is scared of the syringes and doesn't like being toweled. Once he's better I will work on these things, but for now it is really hard to get him his medication. I feel like I'm losing trust with him because of toweling and forcing something he is scared of into his beak. I wouldn't feel quite as bad if I could give him both medications at the same time, but since they are pro and anti biotics, they have to be given an hour apart.
For now I'm keeping the towel and both syringes near him when he's out, but I don't think that's going to work fast enough. I'm pretty sure he already has associated bad experiences with being toweled between living at the pet store for 8 months and the recent visit to the vet.
Are there any other way I could give him the medication that won't scare him?
