Well, hate is a strong
word. She certainly is very angry with me.
She needs to take 4 pills
a day for a possible gum infection. I asked the vet for pills because when I
used an eye dropper, she ‘whipped her head back and forth’, and I got most of
the medicine on me. That was four days ago, and I haven’t been able to get one
pill to stay in her mouth. We have been in a tug of war, and she is winning
every battle.
Here is what I do. I pick
her up and speak gently to her. I explain what I have to do and why. She looks
at me with her big brown eyes and starts to purr. When I see she’s calm, I try
to open her mouth. I get the pills in, but she jerks away from me before I can
rub her throat so the pills can go down. Then, like a ninja, she jumps off the
bed and spits out the pills on the floor as she flies out of the room.
Now that she is on to me,
she’s avoiding me like the plague. If I even look like I want her, she scurries
out of the room. She won’t let me pet her, nor will she take a nap with me
anymore. Heck, she won’t even come into the bedroom to sleep at night! I am so
frustrated.
Any suggestions to help me out, cat lovers?
