[Petbunny] Smudge getting his medicine

What an amazingly good bunny Christopher Smudge is!  Such a little doll too!

We should make a video of medication time for Jackie. You would see a 
bucking bronco and medicine all over her face and the towel.  It takes 
two people to do medications here. In your video Smudge didn't really 
even need the towel over him. Here we have to wrap Jackie tightly in it 
and she still tries to back out, or move forward.  Today she bit one of 
her syringes so hard she broke the tip off.  I admit that is the first 
time she won, they are usually just very chewed up and not bitten all 
the way through.

Finding her mouth is the hard part. She tucks her head down so far I can 
hardly get the syringe in between her lips, but once it is in, she won't 
let me take it out since she bites it repeatedly.

What a good boy you have there and what a great video. He doesn't even 
look at all upset about taking his medications.  What are they?

PS I should show the video to Jackie so she can understand how a bunny 
is supposed to behave when taking medications.  I think she would give 
it her butt though.
