Thanks! I think we'll try those :-)

Thank you! What size empty caps do you buy?

I hate to pill Aries if I don't need to, but with everything going on right now, it might make sense to get the pills instead of the chewables for cost reasons. I didn't think about getting empty gel caps and sticking it in there - that might work. 

Oh, I'm sorry. Well, I hope he is doing ok now.  I'll think about the fish oil. Thanks!

Oh :-( Yeah, probably not then.

Hmmm...coconut oil. I actually have a jar of Nutiva coconut oil already (good for terribly dry winter skin). That's an idea. I have never had to pill Aries before. I was thinking of either trying to combine prednisolone with food or with his Bene-Bac gel. How old is Sebastian? Poor guy -...
