style of giving a pill to my biggest baby, the Norwegian, exactly twice. Gave it up. He was way too smart to stay purrito'd. No matter how tightly I wrapped him up in that towel (or the baby blanket later on), he managed to weasel enough of himself out to escape. I finally ended up just grinding up the pill and adding it to Fancy Feast, which he gobbled up like normal. Silly Kitty, but smart!
