I've  tried everything I can think of to make the Baytril more palatable, but 
 nothing works. Willie hates taking medicine and he is not a very good 
patient,  so I think I will take Janneke's advice and just wrap him up like a 
burrito  and he'll take his medicine whether he likes it or not!  :>)
 
There are two flavors of Baytril - a liver flavored more suitable for dogs  
and cats and a purple pill which is suited to rabbits and guinea pigs.  If  
Willie is getting the liver flavored variety, I'm not surprised he hates  it.  
See if you can get the purple pill.  Better yet, see if you can  get the Baytril 
compounded into a syrup.  Your vet may be able to do it  inexpensively with 
grenadine, although grenadine stains and piggies tend to  dribble.

"It doesn't matter what the  kids say. Rabbits are not disposable like a box 
of cereal or a Disney video.  They WILL get tired of the rabbits and go on to 
the next toy. YOU will have to  deal with the consequences. Unfortunately, 
most people deal with the situation  by DUMPING their rabbits on someone else. 
Ultimately, it is the bunny that pays  for your inability to say NO."
