the heck with a vet grind up an aspirin and mix it in with the food
the cat will be fine in a day or so
and no packratmac, i would never try to treat any pet like that, but i have had to do that with pills from the vet for my cat he didn’t take pills well and really shredded my arm
crush the pill, then put the powder and a tablespoon of tuna in a Magic Bullet mini blender and puree’. Works like a charm and no blood letting involved.
Oh - ok. Thanks for the clarification on aspirin etc. But I agree about pills in general! In fact, I just brought my old declawed longhair home from a grooming session at the vets where they called her “an uncooperative patient.” No kidding. The cat is about 104 in human years and can still bite well enough to defend herself!

Bald - have you actually had that work?
All the cat info I’ve read says aspirin, Tylenol(acetominophen) and Advil (I forget what the generic is) are DEADLY to cats.
I think Rush was on Oxycontin, not oxytocin. Or is Oxycontin for pimples?
