We've just realised an exciting new way of getting cats to swallow pills.

Feed the pills to the local mice.

Nothing will make our cats consume pills (or even liquid medicine) willingly - the "conveyor-belt tongue" approach means that all pills come back up, even when they seem to have gone down,and out through the side of a mouth filled with sharp teeth.

The only solution that we have managed is to grind up the pill to powder, mix it with small amounts of butter, and smear mixture on paws.
