>>I haven't actually measured him, but from nose to tip of tail probably around 10".

I think you're going to have a hard time getting 2cc's into this one multiple days in a row. You might check back with the vet on the numbers and verify what they've said. After a couple of those sessions I'd anticipate you'll be getting near flooding it (as the animal declines to swallow) unless you're using a feeding tube on the end of the syringe (which goes directly into the stomach)
