My rat is refusing her already apple flavoured baytril for her respiratory infection. I took her in today and she got a shot of antibiotic and I was sent home with an Apple flavour antibiotic baytril for her and she wouldn’t take the stupid thing. I tried mixing it with pineapple, banana, and it’s like she can smell the antibiotic in it. She will eat the plain banana but as soon as I mix it she is refusing. It’s so frustrating. I tried wrapping her like a burrito but she was just freaking out I couldn’t get her to stay still and it was too stressful. I Don’t know how much of it I got in but I will have to try again in the morning and I don’t know what I could mix it with that she could eat it. I gave her some plain yogurt today and she liked that so maybe I can try to mix it with that and just leave it with her and hope he eats it? What else could I try? Honey? I don’t want to keep wasting the medication by trying it with different food if she does not end up eating it.
