It's a battle every day to give Maverick his meds for his liver problems, and I'm getting really frustrated having to "fight" with him.
He's caught on to all my "tricks", and runs from me just about every time he sees me coming b/c he thinks I'm gonna shove more stuff down his throat. He's taken to hiding under the bed, b/c he knows it's difficult for me to get him from underneath there. I've tried everything I can think of to make it easier for him - including "disguising" the stuff in tuna, chicken broth, canned cat food, pill pockets: I even bought some flavored stuff from the vet, in the hopes that the flavoring would be strong enough to cover up the taste of the meds. I've even tried changing the time of day I give him his meds, hoping that he'd be "tricked" into not knowing what I was up to. But all my attempts have failed.
I feel like such a bad meowmy having to force the stuff on him, but I know I have to. It's so frustrating to me b/c I don't like having to force him, and also b/c it's stressing him out. There just has to be a better way....
