The first time we gave Peaches her medicine she gagged and threw up...multiple times. And screamed like we were killing her. The second time there was much wailing and gagging, but thankfully no puking. The third time was quiet grimacing.
After that she seemed to accept that she needed to take it, but she would still swipe at the sticky syringe if her arms were free so we had to wrap a towel around her. It's purpose was twofold: straight-jacket and drool patrol.
About four days in she actually seemed to start liking the taste if it and would open her mouth for more.
By the last three days she didn't need the towel and would crawl over to get the yummy medicine. I hope she doesn't ever need it again, but if she does I hope she remembers that she likes it!

Love that sweet face! She looks quite concerned in that first pic! :)
