Nanuk is not a nurse

If anyone has any tips on how to get a syringe of medicine down the throat of a flailing, squirming cat (who has claws), kindly send them along.

One trick I will be using tonight is to wrap Mr. Jaws in a blanket like a mummy, that way I will only be battling his bobbing, ducking and weaving head, and not his wild paws and kung-fu style back kicks.

Yes, this morning's dose was quite the ordeal.

Uh...good luck? I found the burrito method only really works with an extra set of a hands. One has to hold the pissed puss, while the other pried the mouth open and squirted the crap in. Plus you have added problem of not wanting to play with his mouth too much. Good luck.
