I almost hate to bring this up, but Dox is really harsh on the
esophagus. My vet tech told me about a guy, (human), that stupidly took
some without water and burned a hole in his throat. It's really
important to wash pills down with a little bit of water, tuna water, or
when I was giving meds to my felv guys, I'd follow the pill with their
Interferon. You want to make sure they swallow Dox. If you can get
them to eat or drink directly afterward that works, but Kisa's not
eating that much so I'd syringe just a tiny bit of liquid to be sure.

We could do this with Tomi, but Kisa is like trying to pill a wild
squirrel. She moves too fast to even react, and can squirm away in any
direction...plus her mouth is small. This is with both my husband and
I holding her wrapped in a towel, plus she's weak and anemic. It's
even harder as she gains strength.
