Dear Mary Jo, The easiest way to treat Canada is to fill her water bowl with CS and to use CS instead of water if you mix it with her food.
If you are really anxious to get a bigger dose into her then you could gently and slowly use a 5 ml syringe into the corner of her mouth. Stand her on a carpet and you will avoid "wheelies" on yourself! What I have really found helpful, if the animals are not healthy, is to daily spray CS on everything that the animal comes into contact, including the animal itself. Bedding, favourite sunning spots, around the feeding bowl, etc. The idea is to try to minimize or stop re-infection. Sick cats and dogs, I spray their faces and wipe off with a towel and repeat this several times. Wipe their eyes to get rid of the gungy stuff. A light, all over body spray which you leave on, and she will lick some of it off. A quick spray into the mouth should help too but in general they object to that treatment. Their front legs and feet get an extra dose. They tend to lie around with snot dribbling onto their front legs, so its sensible to clean that up. Feel the warmth and power that she gives back to you.
