Poor Quigley. Baytril can make for yucky poops so most likely that is the cause. You can give him some probiotics like acidopholus mid way between doses of baytril.

For the Revolution you use a syringe, not the tip of the tube. It's actually good if they go into a quilly ball because then you can usually see gaps in the quills so can get right down to the skin. You also can't get a quill poke with the syringe because your fingers will be further away.

He is probably pooping under his blanket because his tummy feels yucky because of the baytril. I suggest if you aren't already, count his kibble because baytril can put them right off their food. It is always a good idea to have a can or two of Hills A/D and some syringes on hand just in case you ever need to syringe feed.

I hope he feels better soon.

Baytril can cause horrible green slimey poop or diarrhea. It can be really rough on their tummies. Measuring or weighing food works well too. I've found my scale will weigh in 2-3 kibble increments. :lol:
