Ollie is showing his teenage side Hmm
He has cat flu, and will need antibiotics possibly every few months
Previously he was eating them
Now he's refusing all food because I "might" have put meds in it. Paste/ pate doesn't work, he sucks off the paste and spits the tablet out
I can't throw them down his throat as I don't have enough hands and he legs it when I try to get hold of him (stress not good for me, or cat flu!)
I got it down him eventually today by splitting a 5mg tablet into quarters and mashing it into a liver treat but it's not guaranteed
Any stress free tips?!
