i've always given .25 ml of the pediatric liquid with the cats who can't be pilled. no, they aren't fond of it, but i'm fonder of my fingers--and for the behavioral hair-pulling/licking/scratching (which often starts out as an actual allergic reaction then turns into a behavioral thing), it's worked on many cats over many years. and yeah, those caplets REALLY don't work!!!!

I've tried liquid Benadryl before. The cat I gave it to really hated the flavor/taste and went ballistic. Not the reaction I was hoping for at all. If you haven't tried coating pills with a tiny bit of pill pocket and hiding it in food, please do. If the cat is eating at all, they usually wolf the pill down with whatever yummy food I put it in. I've even put it along side some of those disgusting Whiskas treats and they will eat the pill pocketed med right along with the treats.
