You will need:
- one cat treat (A)
- one pill (B)
- one cat (C)

1. Insert B into A.
2. Insert A into C.

The End.

BUT . . .

The skilled cat will suck B off the outside of A then some minutes later discreetly spit A into the gap between the back of the nearest bookcase and the wall.

Take it from One Who Knows.

Nah, this particular cat guzzles cat treat in ignorant fashion, begs shamelessly for more and then tries to help me with my typing. Also, no cat-sized gaps in the vicinity ...

... I think I scared him with the pictures of balling guns.

"I think I scared him with the pictures of balling guns"

Scared him? You sure as hell scared me.

I have yet to find a cat treat my cats regard as a treat. What do you buy?

We have two cats who love them, one cat who'll occasionally deign to eat a "treat", and one who's really not interested at all; oddly, the latter is the cat we rescued from a feral state where he presumably ate anything. There seems no rhyme or reason to their preferences, yet -- unlike their attitudes towards different brands/flavours of cat food, which can shift radically between one meal and the next -- their opinions about treats seem fixed.

We get this stuff called "Thrive", which is little freeze-dried bits of fish. The cats can't resist. However, they're not good for hiding anything in.

Ours only takes tablets if broken up and squished into tuna (prefereably yellow fin, and salmon simply will not do)!

sadly, these pills have to be swallowed whole -- otherwise the crushed-in-mackerel-pate route would be vastly preferable. Tuna? Mine turn up their noses (unless it's my lunch).

Nature's Own, or somesuch pseudo-natural name. (Tesco, 59p) Shiva won't touch 'em: Sam goes into frenzies about them. Fingers crossed I will not be pilling Shiva any time soon ...

Zil and Fruitcake like horrid hard cat treats that look just like pills. Zil would probably eat a pill if it came out of the cat treat jar. Fruitcake, however...

Sam is fascinated by the pill bottle -- maybe it's the rattling. A pill heavily scented with cat treat (i.e. one I have failed to insert into a treat) is ignored. A pill heavily scented with human blood is also ignored. A pill jammed into one end of a cat treat is tasty good.
