The vet gave me two small syringes of yellow liquid medicine (Pryantel Pamoate Dewormer) to treat Astrid for her roundworms. I have tried and tried to get it into her by squirting in her mouth, but all she got was upset and I got bloody wounds.
She is just learning to trust me and after trying a couple of times to dose her, she is back to hiding from me (I was gentle but she doesn't like anything near her face or being held).
My question is - can I give it to her mixed with some smelly wet food? Will the food reduce the effectiveness of the treatment?
