    Pilling My Cats - My Method

    I am ~~~thrilled~~~to hear that!!! I hope he doesn't catch on. I know the process is very tedious but it's worth it. I have often thought of writing Mars and suggesting they make a pill pocket but have never done it.

    Pilling My Cats - My Method

    I hope it works for Dodger and you! Yes, when you try to force anything on a cat, then the cat becomes hand-shy. My tuxie from long ago had Lyme disease so we had to give him doxycycline for weeks. They didn't even make Temptations at that time. I found some soft treats that I could press tiny...

    Pilling My Cats - My Method

    :D I should have done a video! Great idea...altho the pill popper used as sealant would have been a deal breaker for my boy. It's so funny how picky some cats can be. We had one that would eat anything that wouldn't eat him first!

    Litter Pan Training for Elderly Female Cat

    Hi. I'm new here and have a challenging issue. A cat showed up at our house just before Christmas. She is prob in her late teens and actually belongs to the neighbor and she is pretty much neglected, plus she's an outside cat. She's very matted and dirty but the sweetest girl ever. She came to...

    Another Newbie here!

    Hi Everyone...I'm new here. I found this site while Googling for an issue we're having with a cat that recently came to our home. I'll post that in one of the forums. Just wanted to say hello. Our 17 year-old ginger boy was laid to rest on 10/29/23 and it seems the universe sent us another cat...
