>>> Has anyone in this august group any experience with the method of
>>> grinding up the medicine, mixing it with butter and smearing it on
>>> their paws for them to lick off?
>
>>All you'll have there is an angry greased cat. About the only thing
>>that'll make more mess is half an angry greased cat.
>You think? - Try closing all the doors in a room & prodding the cat with
>a running hair dryer or vaccum cleaner nozzle[0]. I hadn't previously
>known that a sufficiently upset cat is capable of running /up/ walls, &
>can do that spinning-at-a-blur trick used by the Tasmanian Devil
>character from the Bugs Bunny cartoons - while simultaneously voiding
>its bladder.
>[0] I was young & stupid, & thought it'd be funny. This turned out to be
>only partially true, in that while it can be hilariously funny to look
>at a dazed person who's covered in torn clothes, cat scratches, blood, &
>catpiss, but it's not at all funny to /be/ that person.
