Carson - To Vet Today (Update #12)

[Grace]

I second Karen's comment. Never have had much luck hiding pills in food - unless it's a piece of shrimp. They invariably smell the medication and eat all around it.

I usually get them by the scruff of the neck - pull them up until their mouth points straight up - then drop in the pill. If you have a second set of hands, squirt some water in with a small syringe. Down the hatch the pill goes.

Carson has been the ONLY one that I cant pill out of 8 cats that we've owned, or should say "they owned us".
Normally, down the hatch (rub the neck, blow on the face or use pill shooter)they go.

He is a challenge indeed!

UPDATE
Fancy Feast Chicken Chunks and Gravy! Took 1/2 pill and split it again and wrapped that portion in food. Down hatch and he chews on food when pill went down first Wash it down with squirt of florta flora in a syringe. REWARD: Carson gets a spoonful of FF in a bowl
