Since Ash has become ill we have to pill him daily with two pills, it is not an easy task and does take two of us and a pill popper, do invest a few dollars in one , they are really helpful.

We do wrap him tightly in a towel, as he is a rather vicious kitty when challenged, even after four months of daily pilling we still get it wrong sometimes, he is very cunning and manages to hide it in his mouth, I always check his mouth afterwards though to see it has gone, and stroke his throat, to help it go down, I don't really think spraying water down there is necessary, as long as you have them on the right angle.

We found for ash we basically have to lie him down on his back,not that he likes that, but it is the only way it works, and the gravity makes it go down, hubby has to hold him rather tightly by the scruff of the neck,it may not be dignified and I am certain he finds it not too nice, but you gotta do what you gotta do.

Good luck i am sure you will get the hang of it.
