Cats are unique in that they cannot be easily convinced to take oral medications as a treat and holding them for injections or sampling procedures needs to be on their terms - or it doesn't happen. However there are many little things that can be done to improve the feline experience within the veterinary hospital or at home. From correct use of compounding pharmacies to different needle options, variations of injection techniques and new challenges such as the painful Remdesivir administration for FIP therapy - a look in the feline friendly medicine cabinet.
