HOW TO GIVE A CAT A TABLET:-


  1. Pick up the cat and cradle in the crook of your left arm as if holding a baby. Position right forefinger and thumb on either side of cat's mouth and gently apply pressure to cheeks while holding pill in right hand. As cat opens mouth pop pill into mouth. Allow cat to close mouth and swallow.

  3. Retrieve cat from bedroom and throw away soggy pill.

  5. Retrieve pill from goldfish bowl and cat from top of wardrobe. Call spouse in from garden.

  6. Kneel on floor with cat wedged firmly between knees, hold front and rear paws. Ignore growls emitted by cat. Get spouse to hold cat's head firmly with one hand while forcing wooden ruler into mouth. Drop pill down ruler and rub cat's throat vigourously.

  7. Remove cat from curtain rail, get another pill from foil wrap. Make note to buy new ruler and repair curtains.

  8. Wrap cat in large towel and get spouse to lie on cat with cat's head just visible from below armpit. Put pill in end of drinking straw, force cat's mouth open with pencil and blow down straw.

  9. Check label to make sure pill is not harmful to humans, drink a beer to take away the taste. Apply Band-Aid to spouse's forearm and remove blood from carpet with soap and water.

  10. Retrieve cat from neighbour's shed. Get another pill. Open another beer. Place cat in cupboard and close door onto neck, so as to leave the head showing. Force mouth open with dessert spoon. Flick pill down the throat with elastic band.

  12. Ring for fire brigade to retrieve the cat from the tree across the road. Apologise to neighbour who crashed into fence while swerving to avoid cat. Take last pill from foil wrap.

  13. Tie the little so and so's front paws to rear paws with garden twine and bind tightly to leg of dining table. Find heavy pruning gloves from shed. Push pill into mouth followed by large piece of fillet steak. Hold head vertical and pour 2 pints of water down cat's throat to wash down pill.

  14. Consume remainder of scotch. Get spouse to drive you to hospital. Sit quietly while doctor stitches fingers and forearm and removes pill from your eye.

  15. Arrange for the RSPCA to collect the mutant cat from hell and ring local sanctuary to see whether they have any white mice!!
