We give Jazz her benazepril pill via pill pocket. It's been a great system, really--we add it to a bit of kibble and she usually gobbles it right up...
Usually...the key word is USUALLY...
Three times so far this week she's rejected her pill pockets. I'm really hoping it's because there's only a few left in the bag and they're stale and not as good tasting and not that she's decided she doesn't like them anymore...
She's got a tight jaw and a tiny head and hates being pilled, so it's a bit of a challenge to pill her the traditional way. I know I can't do it--J's got to do it for me. Gods know I've tried to pill her myself. That's why when we discovered pill pockets it was such a godsend! Argh!
Trying not to freak out or get frustrated. This is the way cats can be sometimes...challenging, especially older cats who can get finicky at the turn of a dime...
