Pilling a cat, how does you're cat take it?

[Millys Mum]

None of mine like it but i can normally do them at the first attempt, just Lola who is awkward, its in her genes tho 
I normally stick wormers in a cube of raw steak to save them the hassle.

Taz loves being medicated and will have any pill or liquid put in his mouth

Get Joe to eat a tablet? - easy, just offer it to one of the other cats, he'll fight tooth and nail to get it LOL! 

BRILLIANT!!! 

With my lot, stealth tactics seem to work the best.... hold pill with treat, cats are used to 'begging' for treats so up goes their head, and in drops the treat, along with the pill!  Job's a good'un!

'mould' tablet into a piece of cheese, and get about another 3 bits with no pill so they look the same......look like treats, and works every time when Max had anti'bs.

Didn't work for his worming pill though

With both of mine I opt for the pin them to the ground and shove it down their throat option.  Works every time    But thankfully neither have ever had to have more than a course of antiobiotics or an occasional worming pill.

I just think Eva is hilarious, have you ever seen a cat suck her cheeks in, puff her lips out and tuck her chin vice tight to her chest?  I cannt help but laugh at her, and she curses me all the while

Goes down easily here, no problems whatsoever. Straight down the hatch.

I crush em up and add a wee bit of water and syringe em in. He doesn't seem to mind too much with a 2ml but he hates anything bigger.

Bilbo: Get Dave to pin him down as he's too strong for me to hold, open his mouth, try and shove the tablet down his throat without him shutting his jaw on me, pick it up when he spits it out and repeat until finished!

Boopy and the Boopettes: Put tablet in front of relevent cat and they then just eat it.

Winston, easy peasy lemon squeezy, just open his mouth, pop in the pill and gently rub throat till swallows.

Bernie, gently catch hold of him before he bolts, hold frimly between the knees, he's such a wriggler. Open mouth, pop in pill, pick pill up off the floor, open mouth and pop in pill a little faster this time, hold mouth closed, gently rub throat till he swallows.

Eva, chase her round the house 3 times, back her up between knees, holding shoulders firmly, laugh out loud at her sucking her cheeks in, puffing her lips out and pulling her chim tight to her chest, release her coz i am laughing so much. Chase her round the house again, laughing as she grumbles and trots away from my grasp every time. Compose myself or she'll never get her pill. Try to lull her into false sense of security and get hold of her unawares, back her up between knees again, holding shoulders firmly, bite down on insides of my cheeks to stop me laughing at her again, prize her cute little face away from her chest, open her mouth, pop in pill, pick it up off the floor, try again, this can go on for some time  , have to get pill right to the very back of her throat as there is no way she'll let me stroke her throat, close mouth, once i think she has swallowed, release and take cover
