She really started fighting the drops last night, so I took her back this morning and the vet techs helped put them in. Any suggestions on how to make that process easier?
As far as how it is healing I guess I will get an update tomorrow! (Prayers said and fingers crossed!) |
I'm glad she's feeling better! As far as getting the drops in, I would try setting her on a table. Sometimes they feel more insecure on a table and they won't put up as much of a fight. That may be enough, but if not, try putting her on the table with her butt towards you (preferably with her sitting) and kind of tuck her up against your body. If your right handed, tip her head back with your left hand and put the drops in with your right from above her head. Sometimes it goes better if they can't see it coming as well. I hope this makes sense. It's much easier to demonstrate than to type.
If your still having problems, maybe you could have the vet techs show you how they do it. Good luck.
