Sitting on the front steps
One of our two parakeets (Split Pea) started vomiting today. We took him to the vet right away and they did a crop and fecal cytology and it turns out he has a bacterial infection. So it's good that it's treatable, and we have antibiotics now, but he's very resistant to toweling and we want to traumatize him as little as possible. (It's a fight every time we have to trim his nails, and luckily he's healthy enough that he's still definitely putting up a fight.) We have to administer the antibiotics twice a day. Any advice for how to make this as easy as possible for him? He's so tame and I'd hate to lose that trust, but you can't explain to a bird that the medication is what will make them feel better
