[Gpdd] <CARE> Advise on administering Critical Care

Recently, due to teeth problems and by prescription from my vet, I had to 
administer to one of my piggies, Critical Care, to make sure his teeth 
problems were not going to prevent him from eating normally.
My vet taught me a very good trick to make this Critical Care feeding 
enjoyable for the Piggie: Mix it with Pumpkin Pie filling (I bought a can 
of Libby's pumpkin pie filling at Walmart for 99 cents), and add just a 
little bit of water to make the whole thing go easier through the syringe.
My piggie likes it so much that I do not even have to hold it, he comes 
right to the syringe and as he starts nibbling on it I administer this mix 
of Critical Care, pumpkin pie filling and water little by little.

Hope it helps to someone.

Poricos, Pelut and Pablo.
