I know this is a funny--but incidentally I find it easy to give the cat a pill if I coat the pill in "Kitty Drain-O" (Hairball remedy--that malt/beef flavored oily jelly stuff in the tube)and put it on the back of cat's tongue. But you have to turn your finger in the cat's mouth with the pill on it or you get bit.

Thanks, Michelle, that was hilarious! And every bit the truth. I have scars on my hands and arms from just flea bathing some of our many cats over the years. Pills are out of the question!

And as crazy as it sounds, I treasure the scars as mementos of the much loved cats who have passed on. grin
