And…I am bathing again avec plaisir! Maybe meds are working.
Well, this is not so much a spark as as suggestion to kitty-lovers everywhere about how to make us kitties take our meds.
Mama thinks I don’t know when she’s mixing B12 into yogurt but I love it anyway so that one is taken care of. Plus it turns a lovely pink. My favorite med color, haha.
As for the other stuff, antibiotic pill, anti-vomiting travel pills, etc. here’s what mama discovered, and although I know full well what’s being done, I do take the med. Crush the little pill (let’s hope it’s small) in a few drops of hot water until it dissolves. Add a tiny bit of malt paste and stir well to mix all. Since I love malt paste, I lick up the Med Tea, haha, easily and Bob’s your uncle.
Whoever this Bob is.
Maybe this will help another kitty
Loulou, I’d never EVER have thought of crushing a pill and mixing it in a liquid, then adding it to food!
DO’H!
Thanks for that tip, and keep lickin’, Loulou!
Well, it works for some but here’s the BIG one. Wrap the pill in a cheese that your kitty loves, like feta. COMPLETELY wrap it. I ate my pill without knowing what had hit me!
Thanks for those tips, Loulou. I get my B12 as a shot under my skin so no medicine for me to have to take. ~Ernie
Oh, Ernie, you are so up to date. Mama could give me a shot after all, but the insulin ones are BASTA for one day. And I love my Zopaline in yogurt.
I know ALL of us who love you are happy that taking your meds is more of a pleasure than a pain thanks to your Mama’s creative “mixing”!! Whatever works – and it apparently IS working as you’re feeling perky, doing stairs, grooming your little body, and moving around more easily. I know I speak for the entire universe when I say – WAY TO GO LOULOU!
Hugs, Teddy
Oh, thank you, merci, Teddy. I still have a few kinks to work out but…
Great advice from your mama, Loulou, and happy to see that you’re getting stronger each day.
Yes, I think that B12 is a miracle.
Very good advice. XO
Hey, live and learn. I did NOT take my CERENIA that way but mama wrapped it in feta cheese and I ate it up!
Mama is pretty clever! We’re lucky, we pill easily here, all but Simon that is.
Well, Simon, you and I are on the same wave length. Mama thinks she is fooling me but I know what’s happening….we’ll see….
That is interesting, LouLou…but our kitties never liked that malt paste, go figure, LOL!! Maybe your brand available in France tases better?? Who knows!
I am glad it helps you take your medicines, though.
Enjoy your bath…followed presumably by another good nap…😺
Yes, spa and then rest, maybe I’ll do my nails later…
Some of our kitties are ok 2with meds but some of them are terrible. (Even for the vet staff to medicate.) Luckily Buzz is good about his eye drops, which are 3 times a day. You are such a help to Mama and Papa by taking yours ! Glad you can tell they are helping too !
Well, I spit out my CERENIA this morn but mama wrapped it in FETA CHEESE and I went bonkers
