Pill Pockets: One of the greatest inventions of man. Thanks to them, I have my cat begging for medication.

johnpannell, we’ll have to try the pill pockets.

bigheadfred, I’m going “assume” the suppository would be for the cat. ;)

Fido969, that was priceless.

LauraJean, that was certainly my intention. :)

Yardstick, gee thanks. Now I’m having flashbacks. I might be suffering from PTKD! (Post Traumatic Kitty Disorder)

ponygirl, it’s really only a little swollen. I took a little artistic license with the Mount Vesuvius description. We have post-hole diggers that would make a perfect sized hole!

Joe Boucher, I’ve always wanted to grow cattails. Maybe this year! ;)

Fantasywriter, for the cat taco do you grill the cat or brown it like hamburger meat?

Thank you all for your comments! Vanity posts can be hit or miss.

I was about to comment on that but you beat me to it...

Liquids in syringes squirted down the throat work pretty well, too.

Yes to the pill pockets. I even a couple of cats that won't just eat the pill pocket so I wrap the pill in it and shove the entire thing down their throat.

It's amazing how much easier it is when wrapped in that thing.

Hope your nose feels better soon! I had the death wish one time (with immediate regrets) when attempting to give subcutaneous fluids to my diabetic kitty. He bolted, needle came out.....water flying everywhere. Just like in a cartoon!
