The white coats make it look so easy when they give them meds...got Kunan on the couch between me and the arm of the couch, got hold of his "snout" the way Dr Bartus did, pried open his mouth, and hubby popped the pill in. He wasn't swallowing for anything! So hubby takes hold and at the same timje is rubbing his throat to make him swallow...took a few minutes(although I'm sure it was actually only seconds) but Kunan finally gave in a swallowed it, but not until he had drooled all over hubby's hand, and down his wrist, and onto the couch and the carpet......
