How to Give a Cat a Pill (followed by How to Give a Dog a Pill)

1. Pick up cat and cradle it in the crook of your left arm, as if holding a baby. Position right forefinger and thumb on either side of cat’s mouth and gently apply pressure to cheeks while holding pill in right hand. As cat opens mouth, pop in the pill. Allow cat to close mouth and swallow.

2. Retrieve pill from floor, and cat from behind sofa. Cradle cat in left arm and repeat process.

3. Retrieve cat from bedroom and throw away soggy pill.

4. Take new pill from foil wrapper. Cradle cat in left arm, holding rear paws tightly with left hand. Force open the jaws and push pill to back of mouth with right forefinger. Hold mouth shut for a count of ten.

5. Retrieve pill from goldfish bowl, and cat from top of wardrobe. Call spouse from garden.

6. Kneel on floor with cat wedged firmly between knees. Hold front and rear paws, ignoring low growls emitted by cat. Get spouse to hold head firmly with one hand, while forcing wooden ruler into mouth. Drop pill down ruler and rub cat’s throat vigorously.

7. Retrieve cat from curtain rail, and get another pill from foil wrapper. Make note to buy new ruler and repair curtains. Carefully sweep shattered figurines and vases from hearth, and set aside for gluing later.

8. Wrap cat in large towel, and get spouse to lie on cat with head just visible from below armpit. Put pill in end of drinking straw, force cat’s mouth open with pencil, and blow down straw.

9. Check label to make sure pill is not harmful to humans. Drink one beer to take way taste of pill. Apply Band-Aid to spouse’s forearm and remove blood from carpet with cold water and soap.

10. Retrieve cat from neighbour’s shed. Get another pill. Open another beer. Place cat in cupboard and close door onto neck to leave head showing. Force mouth open with dessert spoon. Flick pill down throat with elastic band.

11. Fetch screwdriver from garage, and replace cupboard door on hinges. Drink beer. Fetch bottle of Scotch. Pour shot and drink. Apply cold compress to cheek and check medical records for date of last tetanus shot. Apply whiskey compress to cheek to disinfect. Toss back another shot. Throw away tee-shirt and fetch another one from bedroom.

12. Call fire department to retrieve ****ing cat from tree across the road. Apologize to neighbour who crashed into fence while swerving to avoid cat. Take last pill from foil wrapper.

13. Tie the little sod’s front paws with garden twine and bind tightly to leg of dining table. Fetch heavy duty pruning gloves from shed. Push pill into mouth, followed by large piece of fillet steak. Be rough about it. Hold head vertically and pour two pints of water down throat to wash down pill.

14. Consume remainder of Scotch. Get spouse to drive you to the emergency room. Sit quietly while doctor stitches fingers and forearm, and removes pill remnants from right eye. Call in at furniture shop on the way home, to order new dining table.

15. Place “Free Mutant Cat from Hell” ad in local newspaper and ring local pet shop to see if they have any bunnies.

My cat just returned from the vet with a buster collar... A cone thing, that I'm meant to put on. Well I did twice! Even on the smallest fitting (near to strangulation) she can still get it off her head as her fur is so soft! Anyone have any tips for keeping it on?? Lol

Essex.

First I'd give the cat the pill in the form of a suppository... That'd teach the little bugger. Then I'd give up and shoot the cat....

been there done that ex wife has scars on arms too

.

.

found out that the tacky crepe bandage round the paws before you start saves loads of blood. give it 10 mins to calm down before trying the pill, 6 layers of bath towel works too (cute little mummy cat)

.

.

and its funny as f*** watching it walk on the laminate floor as each foot sticks.

Cross the straps over her shoulders.

I don't get this. I've had cats all my life. If they need to take a pill, they take the pill. I am Chief Cat in my household and there is very little nonsense tolerated.

I'm not rough or cruel but I'm firm. If something has to be done for their own good, it is done, regardless of whether they like it.

My ex is currently looking after my two cats. One of them has had to have a tablet every other day for the last few weeks. I've never had a problem giving her tablets before but he's made such a hash of it, she's had a chance to learn how to resist and spit them out. He struggles every time and moans about how difficult she is.

I had to give her a tablet this evening. It took one attempt and was over in less than 30 seconds from grabbing her.

Admittedly, feral or semi-feral cats are a slightly different proposition but with most cats it's about attitude and technique.
