How To Give A Cat A Pill
1.Grasp cat firmly in your arms. Cradle its head on your elbow, just as if
you were giving baby a bottle. Coo confidently, "Thats a nice kitty." Drop
pill into its mouth.
2.Retrieve cat from top of lamp and pill from under sofa.
3.Follow same procedure as in 1, but hold cat's front paws down with left
hand and back paws down with elbow of right arm. Poke pill into its mouth
with right forefinger.
4.Retrieve cat from under bed. Get new pill from bottle. (Resist impulse to
get new cat).
5.Again proceed as in 1, except when you have cat firmly cradled in
bottle-feeding position, sit down on edge of chair, fold your torso over
cat, bring your right hand over your left elbow, open cat's mouth by lifting
the upper jaw and pop the pill in - quickly. Since your head is down by your
knees, you won't be able to see what you're doing. That's just as well.

woman.

at the jaw hinges like opening the petals of a snapdragon.
