Gee Vic, when Eric and I moved into the place we live in now, I couldn't wait to rip out the rocks in front so I'd have someplace to plant things!!!

There's is a way to hold the cats jaws open, Of course It involves pulling the Cats head back I think, then, As I'd said one needs to shove the pill past the tongue and down It goes, Once there, Close the jaws and massage the Cats throat(Give Yer Cat a kiss too), Guaranteed to work and I did It to a Cat named Baby, He took the pills every time and I always did It by Myself as I had no help.

Sorry to hear Yer Cat is sick, I hope She gets better soon.



Vic, I am happy about your new house. I'm sure you will be very happy there. As for giving cats pills, my wife is well skilled as well. We have the Maine Coon that I posted a picture of sitting at the kitchen table. His urethra blocks very easilly, so my wife gives him 2 pills each, twice a day. She has it down to an art, and just pops them in. I tried her technique, and it is very similar to what you describe. The only difference is she doesn't pull the head back. Pop that pill over the tounge, and both pills are gone within 5 seconds. She even got a urine specimen from that cat by following it around, and putting a paper cup in the right place at the right time. She trims their nails, and cleans their ears. The neighbor cat came by a few months ago, and she cleaned his ears to! He left wondering wtf just happened to my ears?

So if you get the place you will be moving 40 miles or so away from your current place.

Critter time again, now I am awake after a long session downloading, what seems, like gigabytes of patches.

Just got back from Nottingham and seeing the first grand child. Lovely.

Now to retreat in to a steaming hot and deep bath for a couple of hours.

Bacon

Sausage, Oopsie! Couldn't help It. :D

Something about this reminds me of Ms. Piggy listening to the Christmas carol featuring figgy pudding.

"Piggy Pudding???!!!"
"No, no, figgy pudding. It is made with figs."
"Oh"
"And bacon"
"WHAT!!

At that size it would only be a couple nibbles. Fatten it up to a right size hog and its luau time!

Speaking of pigs I heard through the grapevine that Sly had a pot belly named Arnold, but that's just a rumor.

I had a dog named Porky. And, believe me, there's a great punch line, but it just can't be done here.
