However, we've found two pretty-reliable ways to get her to take fluids, especially when they are really needed (like when she had the flu). She likes to be squirted in the mouth from a squirt bottle full of water, a little at a time (or else she enjoys blowing it all back out). She also likes a closed-lid plastic cup with a rectangular nipple projecting from one edge, though the same warning applies.
