Bouncy is scaredygoo named as such because he's now afraid of people after having to have to be grabbed and force fed meds? I fear all this is ruining the trust I was building with Tibbs also he jumped from my arms today and cut his lip. I know this is all for his best interests but I doubt he knows that and now I'm just another mean giant who pokes and prods him like those students at the farm 😔 No, not at all! Whereas the others run, explore, and climb, he's the one happy to watch. If anything, my bond with Scaredy is even stronger than it was. He happily trots over to me to drink his meds straight from the syringe, and always cuddles with me at the vet.

As usual you were all right 😬 it's becoming a lot easier now, he still has a good struggle but he's accepting now that the sooner it's over, the sooner he's released and gets his treat. Have found out that he doesn't mind having a cuddle before or after though, he's a little sweetheart to hold. Garf will give me a firm pinch with his teeth if I hold him in my hands too long and I'm sure he'd take a chunk out my hand if I was trying to burrito him and give him meds! Tibbs the little sweetheart, love feeling his little body in my hands (when he's not wriggling!)
