KITTEN UPDATE // FERAL TO TAME

I had to give these FIVE 10/11 week old kitten deworming medication. They need to take a 1/2 tablet pill now and another 1/2
two weeks later. I broke the 1/2 into two pieces to mix in their wet food. Since they have small mouths didn't work to well. Even

                       Tux, Betty, Patty and Mickey

my one tame kitty, Patty wouldn't cooperate. But Patty is so tame he let me hold him while I put the pill down his throat. One down 4 FOUR to go.
They make this product feline GREENIES/ Pill Pockets. You put the pill inside and the cat eats the medicine. It's made in two flavors, chicken and salmon.

Here is what happened/// I put just a quarter of the pill into a chicken pocket and offered to a kitten. Kitty # 2,3,4 and five wouldn't even smell it. Well I thought maybe they'll like the salmon pocket. They did smell the salmon one but would not eat it. Ok it must be they smell the medication in the pill. So I get two fresh chicken and salmon pockets to try. Same thing no interest.
Whats going on here I thought. Since I have seven adult house cats, I tested this product on them. They all smelled it, licked it and then walked away. Bingo// garbage, and that's where it went. List price for these Greenies was about $15. Money I could have used on real food. I finally managed to pill the other four kittens mixing in their wet food but took multiply times.

Here is Tina //aka Cindy as in Crawford. She is a little bit full of herself and needs her own dressing room.
