We have to get this into our cat and its a battle right now! Not sure my marriage will survive it either lol! Any ways we can make it easier? Can you absolutely not cut it? We are using pill pockets. I should add she keeps throwing it up even when she does take it!!. Thanks!

I think all of those supplements have an safety coating on them and have to be swallowed whole so they break down in the intestines.  I know when my kitty was recovering from fatty liver I started with one, I don't remember the name of it, but it was a huge pill.  Patches is easy to pill but it was so large I was afraid to give it to him.  I think Denamarin is the same thing, at least it is Milk Thistle and SAM-e and I think the pills might be smaller.  They come in a size for small dogs and cats.  I know you can order them on Amazon.  I would ask your vet about it.

Is she a calico?  I didn't even think about that when I named my kitty.  He is about half white and the rest is a tabby pattern so I named him Patches.  Most kitties named Patches are calicos.   I remember when I dropped him off for a dental the receptionist referred to him as a she out of habit.
