I took my moggy to a new vet last saturday to see about getting him sorted,
was not happy with the other vet giving me drops.
He was given 2 injections, one antiinflamatory and one antibotic to start
him off, I got pills this time, much easier to give him, I am on day 3 now
and the little bugger is getting wise to the pilling routine, his toe is
looking a much better, the grazed sore look is gone, been replaced with a
healthy pink colour, but the swelling is still there, I suppose this means
the antibiotics are not working as well as they should?

If you are concerned that the infection isn't clearing up give the vet
a phone call.

One of my cats is a pain to pill but she likes synulox, I put the pill
in front of her point to it and she eats it then follows me around
meowing for another one - she thinks synulox pills are treats :-).

I have got to take him back for a check up anyway so I might as well wait to
see what the vet says, what a great cat you have, I wish mine would think
they were treats, I have overcome the pilling problem at last, I think, so
far it has worked for me, today I crushed the pills into a fine powder and
then mixed with a small portion of sardine in tomato sauce and so far he has
not noticed............. yet :)

If I have to give medication to my feral cats I sometimes crush the
pill and mix it with some tinned tuna (about a teaspoonful) or get
some wafer thin ham and spread the crushed pill on a slice, roll it up
(like a swiss roll) and cut it into slices..........sometimes you have
to be devious :-)
