Mama tried to hide my pill in between my toes but no way am I taking a pill that’s been THERE!
Well, mama thinks this is so funny and although I did not laugh that much at the fun poked at us kitties, I’m willing to be tolerant of anthros’ humor and humor them a little, too. Also mama was laughing so hard when she received this story in an email that she practically fell off of her chair!
I have to say this is really very, very on the money and don’t you forget it when you want to force some deadly drug down our gullets.
Now, here’s the thing. I’m trying to find the url for this wonderful, funny How To Give A Pill To A Cat, with photos, and I can’t find it, so I’m just going to put in the url for the text and you’ll have to imagine the kitty photos…unless I find them. And at the end How to Give a Dog a Pill the one mama received said something different, which was, “Wrap it in bacon and toss it in the air.” Finito. Maybe mama can put the photos in this blog and you can imagine them with the text.
They’ll never find me here, heh, heh.
Frankly, I take liquid stuff and mama just opens my mouth with the dropper and squeezes and it tastes really good so I swallow it. A friend of mama says that her kitty does a gulp and then another and then another and then spits it all over the floor.
Mama’s sister in law’s doggy, Hunny, used to make her mama think she took the pill and then my sister in law would find the pill in some corner of the house.
Boy, are we feisty animals.
But guess what. Mama is not real happy about swallowing pills either. So there!
Maybe I’ll hide hers in a nice raw piece of liver. That ought to work. Works for me.
NUM, NUM…
Those are some tricky tongue moves!

Well, cleaning feet is not an easy task.
Reading the struggles of cat pilling apes made our ape laugh. Your Mama will be delighted to take pills in a nice, flabby piece of liver, anthros love medicine this way.
Ha ha ha
Hope you are ok Loulou and don’t need those pills for anything grotty.

I hope so. But my fur looks a bit funny lately and it’s always smooth as mink. Any ideas?
Time for a worming treatment?
Spring moult? Moulting can make our coats look dreadful sometimes
Have you changed diet lately?
Are you grooming as much?
Are you finding it a bit uncomfy or painful to groom all over? You are a bit young for arthritis we think.
We hope you are ok Loulou

Well, I roll in mama’s garden gravel every morning to scratch all nicely and then I have little white bits of gravel in my fur and then mama combs them out and I seem to look better. There is no sign of worms on my sleeping area and yes, mama did change the diet and now she has changed back to the normal one and I think I feel better. Your responses were GREAT. I’ll check my fur tomorrow after having been back on track for a couple of days. I run around, I play, I sleep my usual 12-15 hours, haha, so all seems okay.
You look so cute licking your toes 🙂
Well, no one around here has offered a manicure!!
Jan is making a face but we think taking meds wrapped in raw liver is a great idea.
Yeah, I think mama would gag, too, but I would love it!!!
Socks used to be easy to pill until he got really sick and had to take a dozen pills, some that were horse size (Mom’s words)then he took a page out of my (Scylla) book and gave Mommy a hard time. Luckily he is better now and doesn’t have to take pills, he was wearing Mommy out. Mommy tired hiding pills in Fenris’ food, but he would refuse the food even peanut butter which he loves if a pill was in there. He always knew. So now Mommy just sticks the pill down his and Tuiren’s throat. ~Scylla the calico cat from ATCAD
Your mommy is BRAVE. No telling what’s going to happen when you can do that!!! Someone said to stroke the throat after giving the pill, but it didn’t work for me, haha.
