Why not just chop it up and mix with cat food ? Then, you have have to make sure (if you've got any dogs), to make sure they dont go near the cat food.

Seriously, it doesn't work.

They know you've done it. They won't eat it!

LOL Indi!

Luckily my cats are retarded and like taking pills and being brushed and having their claws clipped with out any resistance. If my 26 pound Frodo decided to fight me I'd be in for some sh*t for sure.

That's funny. Just like my cat. She's a nightmare. Won't eat anything but her food, and if there's anything funny in it she won't even get near it...

cats can be sneaky buggers... mine tend to hide the pills under thier tounge and wait for you to let them out, and just to be bloody minded cough it up and run away.

best way to get them to take them is place them on the tounge then whilst firmly holding this mouth shut stroke thier necks gently from top to bottom

(^_^) though the post is funny.

Heh, steps 15 and 16 should be:

15. Nail its head to the floor
16. Insert the pill rectally

After that, any cat would be glad to just swallow the pill

Cats wont eat food with anything weird in it, like medication. Ravens way works. Or do like I do, put the pill on a plate of human food, put the plate down after you eat (dont eat the pill) and my cat will jump up and eat the pill thinking its human food.

in the 16th centtury ppl thought cats were actually demons in animal form. I still beileive that today with my 2 cats. They can be fun, or they can make your time on a computer a living hell. For some reason my younger cat this its a fun idea to try to catch the mouse cursor on the moniter. Bloody beast then leaves scratch marks on the screwed moniter. Damn these, god's so called "creations".

In Europe at least, in Japan (as well as many other places) they were thought to be Gods in animal form. They were revered due to their grace, beauty, and ferocity.

And, as I'm sure we all know, they were considered divine creatures by the Egyptians, particularly revered in places where felin goddessess (we know of two) were the city's patron deity.

my cats aren't violent to me when i try to give them meds.
you calm them with some petting on your lap, needs to really be on your lap so you can pin down thier bodies then you use your thumb and index finger in the corner of the jaw as it'll make them open thier mouth stick it on the tounge and stroke thier neck.

you'll get a dirty look but thats about all

I think that's from www.stuffucanuse.com - which also features..

Windaz 2000 - for australians - I like the "G'day" button

And this:

Quote: "After what witnesses described as an all night blinder during which it kept droning on about how it was always being bloody ignored by the whole bloody world and would bloody well stand to do something about it, Australia this morning woke up to find itself in the middle of the North Atlantic.

"Good Lord, that was a booze up," said a bleary-eyed Australian Prime Minister, John Howard, speaking from his residence at Kirribilli House, approximately 600 nautical miles east of Cape Hatteras, North Carolina."

Windiz 2000 (Geordie Edition) was best

there was the "haway!" button, as well as "me peekchas" and "addin masheen".

my cat wont eat anything but her own catfood. She lost trust in us for feeding her... she used to love cheese, we gave her cakes made of cheese for her birthday, then one time... we put her meds in cheese, she ate it... then she ave up on human food, she wont eve eat cat treats anymore! she wouldn't eat a rat.. bird.. or any living creature, but she does torture the creatures and leave them as presents on our doorstep... Even if i put a cat treat, let alone a med, in her food, she wont eat it and will jsut trip us until we re-feed her. lol, she's evil, if she has no food, she'll trip us until we feed her, if i'm on the computer, she'll jump on my chair and push me off it forcing me to pet her and then throw her off when she doesnt expect it. then she'd jump on the computer desk and push my hands off the mouse until i'm forced to pet her.. then throw her off the desk...
