I wonder if any of you wise lot might be able to give me any advice on how to go about getting my old girl cat to take her very essential medication to lower her blood pressure. I have tried what feels like EVERYTHING and it's very very stressful. We've tried pill form which she won't take either whole or crushed with food, treats, wrapped in ham ect and now the vet has given me a liquid form which she is refusing also 😕. I've tried mixing it with every treat imaginable, also tried putting it onto a bit of ham and in her dish on top of her normal food (she loves ham, its her normal treat) She won't go anywhere near anything that has it in, she'll just walk away from it and I've even left it out all day and she won't touch it. She's an extremely anxious girl and holding her and administering it into her mouth is really not an option...I've tried and it did not go well 😲. If anyone has any ideas I'd be so grateful because she really needs this medication and it's really not an option for her to be missing doses and I'm very stressed about it and feel like I'm letting her down 😢
