Poor Uni, we're sending get well hugs & kisses.
I had to give Momo pepcid ac & I just melt it in a water bottle cap w/ little bit of water & he laps it up. Lol he eats anything! Another way (the vet tech taught me) is put some water in a syringe along w/ the pill & administer that way. Momo preferred to lap it up.
