I think my Roomba was around $250, BUT I bought it on the Home Shopping Club or something like that on one of their 'stretch pays', so I only had to pay about 65 a month for 4 months on my charge card.My popeye won't even let me open his mouth to look at his teeth, much less prise it open for

My friend has one, and callsit

well! That's not very P.C. , I know, but I thought it was funny. Her
cats are also fascinated by it, and enjoy watching it.

Has anyone heard of Cat Attract Litter?

I just read about this on a kitty behavior page. The website owner swears by
it. Not the manufacturer, a person with cats. lol.

I watched my vet give a pill to my cat once, with a wand thing

Rebecca,

Hmmm... I think you're the first to mention "pillers".
I have half a dozen here if anyone's interested! LOL! I just

Usually, the "one" time I get it right, the da_n pill gets stuck!!

If you're talking about pilling flagyl/metronidazole (I didn't read carefully)... forget it!Get your vet to give you flagyl in 'treat' form. My vet has them. If your vet doesn't have them they need to be put in a plain capsule like someone suggested. These pills are very bitter. Good luck
Warning...this is a LONG one and mostly about vegetarianism/animal activism.

You need to have the pills in your hand. Approach him from behind, kneel behind
him,
and reach around his chest, and pull him back under your crotch. Keep your feet
close
together, so that his body can't go backwards because your feet are behind him,
