rike_tikki_taviHaving to force two pills down.
I finally got a diagnosis for Rüdiger's persistent problems with diarrhea. According to the vet it's a particular strain of e.coli for which I'll have to dose my furballs with antibiotics twice daily for the next 10 days and because they don't weigh the same, they get different pills. Dicker gets one quarter pill each go around and poor Rüdiger gets one and a half pills. So aside from the fact that he's even less amendable to having pills stuffed down his gullet than Dicker, he has to suffer twice the indignity. Thankfully the fact that they get fed right after seems to let them forget their ordeal rather soon.
