Hello. Most wormers can be administered either way. I would hid the wormer in something tasty like peanut butter, cream cheese, Cheese Whiz or something similar, but sticky enough to prevent Bruno from finding & spitting out the medication. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.
