I hope so too Sandy....I am thinking that one of these days I will try to pill her without the treat...since she'll have to have these pills the rest of her life, I'm thinking I'd better learn both ways!!! -- Piggy's Pad

In reply to: Sandy 's message, "I'm relieved and glad for you that if (and that's a big IF) Maggie had to have a problem, it turned out to be something easily treatable like hyperthyroidism. And boy, you're lucky too that Maggie took that pill pocket without any problems. Around here, Cinnamon, especially, is so wary of *anything* that's out of his normal routine. He's one cat where a pill pocket would not work. But I'm grateful that Maggie snarfed it right down and didn't give you any problems. Now let's just hope that she keeps taking her medication without any problems." on 9:07:29 am, Fri, 03/07/08

They make pill pockets for cats too. I saw them on www.entirelypets.com Bet they are smaller and maybe a flavor cats might like better? It's great she took it. Anytime you can pill a cat without stress for you and the cat it's a good thing! (NT) -- Denise, 10:45:05 am, Fri, 03/07/08
Thank you Denise!! I ordered the Salmon flavor and the Chicken!!! I've never heard of this company before..I did check at Foster's & Smiths, but they only had what I found at Dr. Lee's this morning.... (NT) -- Kate, 11:11:38 am, Fri, 03/07/08
I always wish there were a way to explain to them that you're doing it for their own good. My Synthroid is probably the only medication I take that I don't *mind* taking. My entire family runs on the low side of the thyroid and we're all on Synthroid. About 12 years ago, I was having some really bad symptoms and thought I was in early menopause. Turned out to be my thyroid. And once I got on the pills, boy, I sure felt better so I hope the same goes for Maggie and getting her on the right dosage for her. She really will feel better.
