Of all my decades of looking after animals, I have not come across one who is so, so obedient in taking her medicine as Juno.
She waits as I pound her Pro-Fibre.
Tabs would have run off to hide.
Then, she dutifully licks it all up all by herself. It’s unbelievable.
What a good, good girl.
Ginger’s and Tabs’. Ginger’s is still doable. Tabs has gone to hide.
Compare them with the days of pilling Cow and the gang where I even had to stuff a cat into a carrier, turn it vertically, put cat and carrier into the car, start the car engine, then pill from there, and still get bitten, rush to get a tetanus injection, the works!
Or the days when we had to make a hijab for Vincent to expose only his mouth so that we could pill him, or the “pill peisi” method of hiding the pill in a blob of bread.
And last but not least, please enjoy this classic from 2011: https://animalcare.my/2011/07/06/how-to-give-a-cat-a-pill-simply-hilarious/
