I was convinced this was true of Peepers, a friend's cat who lived with me
for a while. He looked and acted like an alien, and it seemed quite clear that
he was only here on a mission to investigate humans.

There are two good things about the strategy I suggested re: Nutrical-- 1)
they like the taste of the Nutrical usually so the pill does not taste bad, and

That is so true Tencats,For the first few weeks I would get nervous and an upset stomach when it was close to the time to give her that dreaded pill,but like I said it was like we somehow came to an understanding,plus I would give her one or 2 of her Temptations treats,then the pill then a whole bu
I guess I got lucky with my Maizee,she took her pill like a good little trooper,hey we had to do it everyday so something had to give.At firts it wasn't that easy,but we came to a understanding,and the pill popper really helped.A while back she stole the popper and I still have not found it :),I ha

You're so funny! My felv babies were easy to medicate, but they were

those that are easy, those that can be easily restrained, and those that
would rather kill me than submit to taking a pill!
