Thoughts and prayers for Moe. It's so hard when they won't be pilled. :(

Well Moeman has gotten REALLY sick again.
Hes got huge bumps ALL around his neck, like hes wearing a collar or
something, but he doesnt. I called the vet and explained to her that since
Ive already had him in there 3 times, I couldnt afford to keep bringing him
back and asked for Clavomox (spelling?). When our other cat McGhee was really
sick like this thats what she had and we would notice a difference in her in a
matter of hours. The vet said it would upset his stomach and make him more
sick. She said to try to give him a benydryl (again spelling?) and see how
that goes for the weekend. We gave him 25mg last night, and he FINALLY went to
sleep. I seriously dont think this poor little thing has gotten a good
nights sleep in weeks. Hes CONSTANTLY scratching, or licking, its bad. So
when we got up this morning he seemed to be a little perkier, but not much.
Hopefully the benydryl will work and hell get his strength back. Only thing
is we have the pills, and I feel HORRIBLE when we give them to
him. Mitch has to hold him by his neck, then I have to pry his mouth open,
etc
.Ive tried crushing it up and putting it food, but he knows its there and
wont touch it. Even wet food, which is like a treat for him! Any ideas on
how I could crush up a pill and have him take it without even knowing it?
Thanks guys. I swear, sometimes I wonder what I did before I found you all.
