You could check to see if this particular med (or something comparable), could be compounded into a cream to rub inside of kitty's ear. It's pricey to do, but it is 100% hassle free, and you know that kitty is getting the med too, and not spitting it out, etc.

I had to do this for Myndi and her pain med, Tramadol. No matter how old she got - those jaws just seemed to get stronger and more impossible to pry open. Even giving her meds in liquid form was an impossible undertaking, since she would manage to let it dribble out. Never had a dog quite like that before her, and Wolfy is by far the very easiest to pill - pill in a dab of peanut butter, and it's down the hatch.

As far as compounded med prices...............for Myndi's Tramadol in pill form, it was $30 something per month and she got a prescription drug discount at Walgreens - a pet med program they have. The compounding pharmacy here had no discount, and it was around $120 per month. Pricey???? - yes - but it was worth it.
