Title: Would you believe it?
Post by: lilycat on June 12, 2007, 19:57:44 PM

This is just a bit of a moan really...I've spent nearly 2 weeks devising ever more fiendish ways to get Imogen to take her Fortekor  :evillaugh:

This morning I got her tablet out of the blister pack, put it on my side-table and before I could stop him, Dave wanders over and eats the damn thing!!!  :censored:. Straight down - no problem.

I rang the vet straight away to make sure he'd be ok but it makes me wonder if they plan these things just to take the you know what.

When I first got Kylie, she had to take antibiotics for something and I struggled for days with a pillgiver and trying to ram them down her throat, I bought tabpockets etc etc and eventually I put one in front of her and she ate it  :tired: - aren't they fun  :tired:

btw - what did the vet say about another cat having it?
Until recently, I always put claptons leftovers on a dish for the hedgehogs but now I bin it just in case there is any trace of fortekor and I poison one of them - also good to know just in case kylie eats one.

It is so true!  :evillaugh:

For Clapton, the best ways are

1. Prosiutto
2. Regular ham
3. Chicken

the only time we tried with a pill gun and the little  :censored: just kept spitting it back out straight into your face.  Now we just crumble them up and mix into a teaspoonful of pre-brekkie tuna...seems to work every time so far - suckers! :evillaugh:

Bob cat, after being wrestled into submission, would take the tablet, you could then do a complete cavity search of his mouth to make sure it was swallowed, and the next day find the slightly soggy tablet cunningly spat out behind the sofa ......
