youd be surprised how good cats are at eating round the tiny bits of crushed up pill. Reminds me of when i was a kid and i used to find peas and carrots hidden in mashed potato to try and get me to eat veg, i had the same skill.

Jon's idea seems like the best idea. Maybe get a pestle and mortar and ground it into dust, then mix into the cat's food. I don't have a cat, but I should imagine if you get the sticky pouch stuff then it'd probably be easier than trying to hide it in a dry mixer!

wrap the cat firmly in a towel, then you can do what you like to it!
