sgsguru Simba has asthma. Every day, we have to give him half a CC of medicine. He doesn't like it very much. By the standards of cats and medicine, he's pretty easy to dose, but it's still a bit of a trick. I've pretty much got it down -- I get behind him so he can't back up, stick the nozzle in the corner of his mouth, and squirt as he's turning his head to get out of the way. Time it right, and the squirt goes right down his throat.
Except last night. Apparently, he had his tongue in just the right position so that the squirt got diverted through 90 degrees -- into his mouth and back out. And into my mouth.
Yeah, now I see why he doesn't like it. Bitter as all get-out. I have no idea what that means to a cat; the vet says it's supposed to be chicken flavored.
