1st October is my favourite day of the year, because all the Hallowe’en anticipation and build-up is still ahead of me. However, this year, with everything that’s been going on with Louis Catorze, it’s been hard to fully feel the start of the Spooky Season. My mind has been mainly on getting him through it.
Luckily the prosciutto di Parma has been serving us well as the Trojan horse, and he’s been talking his Cerenia like a champ. I realise that salty, fatty ham isn’t the best food for Catorze, but it’s the only way I can get him to eat the damned pill. I feed him one piece of ham fat on its own, then another containing the pill, then a third on its own. The first is to con him into thinking that the second will be as good, and the third is to gaslight him into thinking that maybe the offish taste of the second was a figment of his imagination.

Meanwhile, in SE20, my sister is pilling her cats like this:

No way would Catorze stand for this kind of shit; he’d be casting me the “Go home, you’re embarrassing yourself” look without even blinking.
If you have experience of pancreatitis in cats, please reply and let me know. I feel quite out of my depth managing this, so it would be great to hear from people who have been through it.
