we sometimes use a muzzle with the mask in the muzzle and the muzzel placed on as usual.

This is really helpful, with rabbits especially. The vet at our practice likes to do this ;-)

I agree Mojo, we use this method a lot in practice especially when doing GA's on swans, ducks etc

If the mask isn't a tight fit, put a latex glove over the mask, punch a hole in it, the size of the aimals nose, and the leakage is non existant. Have to admit this was our Head nurses idea, Debbie and not mine! Was very impressed with the results.
