There has to be a better way.....okay here's the sitch...Pandora had tapeworms 3 months ago, and we gave her Droncit from the Vet and it took care of the issue, tried to dose Pearl, even though she didn't have an infestation, but Pearl is feisty and would literally pretend to swallow wait and spit it out.
Well we gave up cause we figured Pearl would be fine.
Well noticing the same symptoms, took Pearl in, now she has a tapeworm (but now she doesn't have fleas anymore so that problem is taken care of, neither does Pandora, cause they gave us stuff for that too).
I just spent the last 15 minutes trying to get Pearl to take the Droncit. Given her age, it was half a tab, I think she got most of it. I got my hand clawed to bits and a small bite.
Do you guys have any tips on the best way to get your cat to take a pill. Especially for a cat as feisty as Pearl.....cause five of the twelve times I tried to give it to her (placed it in, held her mouth shut, rubbed the bottom of her jaw), she acted like she swallowed, waited till I put her down and then spit it out.
