Help...have to catch Mack to take him to the vet

I sure hope it'll work. Storm and Sky both love pill pockets and they're on 2 pills every day so they have saved me from a lot of headache. Good luck.

What are pill pockets?

I have one of those pill pushers that you put the pill into and then push into their throat. Forgot about that one. However, if I can't catch him I am not going to be able to give him a pill either.

I was gonna suggest the food trail INTO the carrier.. something very very tasty.. you could try for a few days.. few times a day.. and then one day just close the door..

now I see you got the pills.. hope they work

Pill pockets are soft treats that have a hole in them so you can easily stuff a pill in them. I actually cut them into 4 pieces and then roll them into balls. Then I use the balls to wrap around the pill. I buy the chicken flavor and they're sold at most pet stores and vets. Here's a link to them: http://www.greenies.com/en_US/Produc...llpockets.aspx.

How's it going with Mack? I hope you can get enough of the pills in him
to calm him. I hope the Vet can see him soon.

Took him to the vet yesterday and they are keeping him for tests. Unfortunately, if he has a chronic illness, I will not be able to keep him as I do not have the funds. They think it could be just a behavioral issue of him pooping various parts of the house. Sadly, he may have to go to the RB because of some of my own personal issues right now I am not able to cope with this.

I hope there is something easily treatable...and that, if need be, the vets know someone who could take him.

Hugs and prayers for you and Mack.

I am sorry to hear about your own health problems. When it rains, it pours.
I would be interested to hear what the Vet says. Prayers for you both.

I'm so sorry to hear this. I sure hope that everything will work out for both of you. I'll keep you both in my thoughts and prayers. Please take care. (((HUGS)))

Good news. A lady at the vet's office who does cleaning and miscellaneous things around the office fell in love with Mack. She has no other pets and I think this would be the perfect place for him. I think some of his issues had to do with intimidation from one of the other cats. Soooo, Mack has a new home. I am so happy this turned out well.
