I managed to get one into her with a lot of trouble but when I tried again this morning I got bitten hard and scratched to pieces. I have heard about the pill poppers and wondered if thats an option.
Otherwise I'll be off to the vets every night for 2 weeks!
Thanks

I haven't use them yet but the vet I had used it on my kitten the pill went in easy try wrapping your cat in a towel that work wonders my old cat hated taking pills but I wrapped him up in his towel he was very relax and it was very easy to pop the pill in his mouth when you wrap your cat up make sure she/he is secure and all the paws tucked in but leave some space so he/she can move a little and not feels trapped.
Watch on you tube how to administer pill to animals there are some very good videos you'll soon get the hand of it. It works for me.
hope this helps
wish you luck with your baby.
