    Thanks....I will try not to worry so much.. She let me press a warm wet washrag back there awhile ago as long as I didn't press it to hard, she was fine. It's going to be fun trying to pill her for 14 days....

    If she likes treats like pill pockets, you can use these to hide the pill inside. You can buy them at most pet stores or even at your vets. My cats love them. I hope she starts feeling better soon.

    Prayers and good wishes and love for Caramella and you, Laura.

    Laura, you can also phone the vet with the follow up question - one of the vet techs can probably reply for you as well!

    I would get the liquid meds for the cats, as I can NOT get pills in them.

    Prayers for a quick recovery for sweet Caramella!

    She came to me this morning (several times) and "meoooow'ed" at me turning her butt next to me.. Somehow I knew it was hurting and she wanted me to do something so I got the wash rag and wet it with warn water and that was what she wanted! There was some clear, bloody urine, coming from her so that is how I know she wanted me to do that..... I got the first pill in her with no trouble, lets hope the other 13 go that good. She is still only doing a teaspoon when she goes in the box....

    She's not being so bad to pill although that could change. She is still bleeding and only doing about a teaspoon at a time in the box and she comes to me for that warm compress but she takes it like she absolutely knows I am trying to make her feel better.. She was VERY happy today, the man she loves came over today (just a handyman building me a porch that she has fallen in love with) and she perked way up for him.. Even he had to laugh at how she follows him from window to window and "talks" to him... and he is allergic to cats but says his girlfriend has TWELVE of them..
