    Butter! You don’t need much, just a thin layer. Rub a little butter onto your fingers then rub the pill itself. Can help mask the bitterness of the pill and prevent it from sticking to their tongue. Was a big game changer giving pills to my cat.

      My grandmother did the butter pill trick with her cats. She tried to teach me, but I never learned her witchy ways (in that respect, at least).

      We do the two person approach with one handling the kitty and the other risking fingers
