There's no way I can give her a pill directly and had been crushing them to add to her food but she's got wise to that. She just LOVES Easy Pill (no connection other than well satisfied customer). Another vote for easy pill, I had some for one of our cats, she ate it up every time. Our other cat is better at eating pills, I put the pill on the work top, put 4 dreamies on top and the whole lot disappears. 3 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold Popular Post Jonboy Posted May 29, 2021 RMweb Gold Popular Post Share Posted May 29, 2021 Well that was a morning. RIP Mika. She was a feisty little so and so and hated being given tablets and seeing the vets, following a broken hock and many visits as a kitten 14 years ago. A scan showed a tumour and lesions, and at best we could have given her 6 months to a year with biopsies, medication and likely weekly trips to the vet. That would have ultimately been more for us than her in terms of quality of life. 1 36 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Hodgson Posted May 29, 2021 Share Posted May 29, 2021 Bad luck Jonboy, it's a very difficult decision to have to make, but I 'm sure you did the right thing by her under the circumstances. 14 is a respectable innings in cat years, and of course you still have your memories. My sympathies. 6 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had that same awful decision with our Clydie two weeks ago, it might have been possible to continue treatment but it would have only prolonged the suffering, he had clearly had enough. When it comes down to it, their quality of life is what really matters. 6 9 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Porkscratching Posted June 1, 2021 Share Posted June 1, 2021 Very saddening indeed to read of so many losses recently. The EasyPill thing sounds a good dodge I'll check those out, the big tabby is very difficult to "dose" with anything in any format, so worth a go next time he needs anything administered !

To check for signs of life try tickling her tummy, but if she’s anything like cats we have had also allow time for a trip to A&E following the test. 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was told if a black cat crosses your path it's lucky. They way they run across the road around here, I can only agree. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
