: My "son" just got neutered (less than 2 hours ago- he is still at vet). The Dr. said that everything went really well but to be on the safe side, he wants Harley to be given some meds for the next couple of days. He wants me to use the same antibiotics that my little girl is just finishing up on. The liquid med. smells horrible and can only imagine how it tastes! My glider is very tame but will bite if upset or mad. He is also a very BIG boy. Any suggestions on how I can give him the meds that won't stress either of us out too much? Any advise would be greately appreciated! Thanks.

Could your vet try a different antibiotic? Our pair is currently on amoxicillin (a pink solution) for a minor resiratory infection. The first day or so they put up a fight, but quickly discovered they like the taste. Now they both open their mouths when we get the medicine dropper close to them.
