RE: OT:Pilling Cats
From: "J.F. Hensler" <hensler@povn.com>
Any one of my four darlings wouldn't hesitate to rip me limb from limb if I
tried to cram a pill down their throats.
Considering that they all love milk (and I have the element of surprise
working in my favor), I grind the pill in a mortar, mix with milk, suck it
up into a syringe (WITHOUT the needle), and within seconds have the meds
into the cat.
I've gotten disgusted looks and some rather nasty comments, but had no
battles.
I rely on their help keeping the iris beds free of mice and gophers during
the summer and I'd like to stay in their good side as much as possible.
