Our Cats got Worms!

The last bout we endured was the cats got worms. So off to the vet. a pill and a squirt to start them off and 11 days of medicine. Myah is a little lady and tolerates the the daily liquid but Chaka had an entirely different idea. This cat absoloutly refused to cooperate. The first night I got cut to ribbons but we got it in. The second night I found myself driving around looking for a "kitty bag" but it was nowhere to be found. I opted to cut a 3 1/2 inch hole in the top of a soft cooler lunch box and zip her up. Even that proved to be harrowing, by the fourth night she would allow the Mrs. to cuddle clamp her to the table and after a howle or two it was over. By the last dose she had the idea. I just hope she remembers if she ever needs medicine again.

Yes, I know what you mean, My little one "trouble" has had almost every worm that a kitty can get and try to get meds in that one. I have scratches all over from that one. It takes the two of us to get a pill in her. We have a pill pusher and have tried crushing it up in food and wrapping the pill in food, and she would eat around the pill. If you did happen to get in her mouth, she would spit it out. They need to flavor the meds so the cats will just eat them. Right now trouble is in need of surgery to fix a genetic problem and she has to have a liquid med 3 times a day. The first dose she had she actually like it. Whew thank goodness. So we have no problem with her with this med. I wish you the best with your cats and getting them to take their meds.
