I wish TF was in injectable form...I wonder if even that Regress stuff would help a bit at this point....

PT Prayers for Tiger!

Great to hear that Jimmy is doing so well. He should have a talk with his buddy about TF!
The caps are kind of a medium to large size. Unfortunately Tiger doesn't like the Pill Pockets. I have tried both the cat and the dog versions and he won't eat them, even with nothing inside them.

When I first emailed Bethany about TF and her cat she told me that she mixed the contents of the caps with butter and smeared it on her cat's paw and that her cat, like any cat, hated to be 'dirty' and licked it all off.
I haven't tried this yet but I probably will. I just don't like the thought of him eating all that butter. But maybe it's not so bad for him? I'm just worried it's going to be too rich and make him throw up.

I'm choosing not to pill him because of the incision inside his mouth. The caps are a pretty good size and even before he had surgery on the inside of his mouth, he was so difficult to pill. We ended up really struggling with each other and by the end of it he hated me and I was bleeding and the pill was not down his throat. It's hard because I don't know how long we have with him and if it's not long, I don't want our time together to be like that, with him running in the other direction when he sees me. Of course, it's a catch 22 because if I did get the caps down him, he might have alot more time with me.

I'll give the butter thing a go and see if it works. Maybe I can find a few different things with the same consistancy that I can smear on his paws throughout the day (butter, creamcheese, hairball remedy etc..).
