Default Cat in plane

wrote:
bought cheap cans of tuna, the ones that have a lot of broth and mushy fish,
and each time it was "pill time" we crushed the pill in a little of the
broth, then stirred in a little of the fish. The cat LOVED taking her
medicine! We extended the broth for a few days, up to almost a week, by
adding a little tap water each day. After adding water each day, eventually
the tuna didn't taste as good, and our cat didn't take to it as well. At
that point our dog got a treat, and we opened another can of tuna. Plastic
pet food lids fit the tuna cans perfectly, by the way.You'll have to
experiment and see how little broth and fish you can get away with before
your cat won't eat it up. You may also have to try two or three brands of
tuna to find the one your cat adores. Our cat loved one brand, but when I
went to a different store once and they didn't have it, I bought their cheap
brand. Our cat refused it.


One of my cats has to take a pill daily for a heart problem. I use to use
tuna, but after a few years he actually got tired of tuna. I was able to
find a conventional wet cat food that he really likes, and mix the
crushed pill in that.
