I've already posted this in Health and Nutrtion but noone has answered it and its been bumped back to the 2nd page.... so I thought I'd try here.
Chestnut has aquired Gizmo's eye infection, however unlike Gizmo he won't let me clean them OR give him meds. I know that if I have my fiance pin him down and wrap his arms around his entire body and keep him from moving we can get the job done... but that is just soooo horrible. I've been giving him lots and lots of treats for letting us get near his eye... but food is no motivation for this kitty!
Any suggestions on how to make this go easier? The poor guy has been through so much the last 3 months... I don't want to stress him out anymore. The whole process is already making him angry and I've noticed he's not eating as much (maybe becaues his eyes are draining in his sinus and he can't smell as well) and he's not as cuddly
ANY and all advice is appreciated... we will try anything!
