How to Give a Cat (and a Dog) a Pill

[carla_fabritius]

Unfortunately, this joke is highly relevant at the moment, since I am having to give Micio my cat antibiotics. The good news is that she seems to be getting better.

UPDATE: Micio has completed her week of medications, and is doing just fine! She had a small wound to the neck, but it has healed well, and she is her old self again. Yay!How to

If you just had your nose cauterized, the pain is probably real. Sorry!

Yah, the joke is a great one. Too bad I don't know the original author to credit them. (Of course I would never tie Micio to a table or give her away!) BTW you find the most appropriate icons.

I hope Micio is easier than that! I really hope she recovers quickly whatever the trouble. Best of luck!

Thank you ff. The tests came back, and she may be mildly diabetic. The vet is going to rerun the test on Monday. In the meantime the antibiotics are helping with the inflammation.

[bouncybunny_ff]

Oh no! Poor thing. I hope it all works out, I really do. Please keep us updated. Pats for Micio. :)

Hey Bouncy Bunny! Micio is doing fine now! Yay!

16) Take cat to vet's, where cat will meekly swallow pill proffered by vet.

One of my very few useful skills in life seems to be that i can administer medication of any type to any sort of animal. I think i work on a combination of "animal is totally trusting & hypnotised into utter submission" combined with "and then mummy does something completely unexpected very very quickly"

I can do stitches too, both putting in & taking out. I have also helped castrate a horse.

I got chomped by a swan once though, they are absolute pigs. Pigs however are no trouble at all.
