HI We just returned from the vets. We have 3 meds that we have to give our cockatiel 2x per day by mouth/beak . I am holding her in a towel and using a syringe. The problem I am having is that she seems to either shake it out of her mouth or "blow it out her nostrils" She sneezed a great bit of it out and now is sitting and making weird gurgle noises like there is still some on her "nose" and looks as if she is yawning.
IS this hurting her? Is there something I can try technique-wise that will ensure that it gets down her throat instead? Can you please help me with how to administer correctly and successfully? Ps, she REALLY hates taking meds.
Thanks so much, Dawn
