buy a cat pill shooter.
it is loaded with a little water and the pill.
it sends the tablet into the cats mouth at a rate which the cat instantly swallows.
but have you tried giving a cat flea treatment or a worm tablet. you need a suit of armour for that job. |

More true than you think!
I have such armour (medieval re-enactor) & needed to wear my arm plates & gauntlets to give my old tom cat his worming pills!  |
