… Do y’all really have that much of a problem popping pills?
It took me until my 20s before I could swallow pills without gagging and spitting out water.
Then one day something just clicked and since then, no problem.
I can do one, two or even eight at a time like it’s nothing.You deepthroated for the first time didn’t you
I can take pills but not a toothbrush.
Full blown Kermit freakout in that last panel!
I used to take my cat to an old country horse vet. On one visit she had to get a pill of some sort and I told the vet that my cat hated pills and it wouldn’t be possible to get one down her throat. He said “son, I’ve been a vet for over 50 years and I’ve never had a cat that I couldn’t pill.” He couldn’t get the pill down her throat and had to give her a shot instead. I’ve never been so proud. RIP Martha, miss you girl.

Get a mortar and pestle, crush it up and put it in whatever.
If not then use yogurt or something gooey.
As a kid the bitterness of the crushed pill made me gag, even when mixed in something sweet like jam. Maybe my folks just needed to dilute it more with like an entire bowl of ice cream or something but I remember throwing up more than once because of the disgusting taste.
meanwhile I chewed grapefruit and pomelo peels after eating the juice part, chewed whatever pills were given to me, chewed single coffee beans, other weird shit. I don’t have the addiction any more after hitting my head a few more times.
toothpase though… somehow all of it fucks me up to varying degrees. I have settled on two that give me heartburn even if im super careful not to swallow any. the rest make me throw up or feel really not good.
Are you… Ok?
Does this work on human children, or just cats?
I don’t think it works on cats :(
You throw it in their mouths and rub under the lower mandible until it goes down. It’s not too hard, assuming your cat isn’t an asshole.
Am I the only one who hates jokes where the entire setup is “These kids I chose to have sure are a pain in the ass!”
My trick is to tap my upper and lower teeth together to poorly simulate chewing (avoiding the pill, of course) and then I’d just naturally feel the urge to swallow.
