    It is near impossible to give a cat a pill ,alright...very funny story..but I also feel sorry for the cat. There IS a way. you HAVE to grind it up and mix it with a little bit of his favorite soft food. My sweet kitty who just died last year,was so wonderful. He always took his pills..I just pushed them in his mouth and talked sweetly to him. I dearly miss him. He was 19 and Never ever scratched me or my children or my grandaughter who used him for a pillow..

    This was funny because at the present time we are giving pills to our cat who has an underactive thyroid. She is getting her madicine & is getting better- - - which makes it even harder to give her the pill.
