As far as the syringe... I'll try, but even now she's on Flagyl for her intestines, just in case of swelling from her bouts this past two weeks. She'll take it if it's in a spoon. Not in a syringe. She becomes a sumo wrestler and Chuck norris in one. Like a Steven Universe fusion. Syringes and her don't mix. It's a fantastic suggestion, though, and just maybe we can do it every four hours or so. Perhaps it will sink in to Her Stubbornejesty that drinking from the bowl is easier.
