OK..............Simba is eating his canned food! Which means, as of last night I started the medication mixed in his dinner. He still is afraid of my hands when I go to pet him. (yes, I got swatted again this morning...more scratches! His nails are DAGGERS Why do people wait so long to have them trimmed?????????)

But he is enjoying some catnip. So I rubbed my hands in it and he decided they weren't all that bad after all. (Of course, now my own cats won't let me alone. )
