I am so sorry to hear that Cirrus may have UTI. If it is not that it has to be something close to it.

Prayers for Cirrus and good thoughts that whatever he has it is not bad and it easily treatable.

Waiting for update

On the subject of giving pills. Joey is also semiferal and I am able to wrap treats around them when I have to give pills to her. She has only giving me trouble a few times. Then I just wanted wraped a new pill and all went well. Not sure if you have tried this, but it works really well for Joey. If this didn't work I would also have major problems. Just to contrast, Bob has caught onto the pill in treat trick. Him I have to pick and shove the pill down his throat.

You have probably already tried this, but I thought it was worth a mention. I can give you the trearts the work for me if you want.
