  Since I am now having to pill Tinker daily, I thought this article might be helpful for those having to give oral medications to their cat. Although the pills she is taking are tiny, they are also very bitter. So now I take a very small piece of bread and wrap the pill up in it before giving it to her.

  So far it seems to be working pretty well.   Smiley

That's a great idea! Since I got accustomed to the idea of pilling animals with my dogs(open mouth, pop in pill, close mouth, stroke throat), I automatically did that with both my cats Cheesy. Works like a charm for me Grin.
It's nice to find an easier way on the cat!
