Have you ever tried…
...to medicate seven sick cats? Two of which, in addition to needing antibiotics, also need forced fluids and feeding? Well, it kind of works like this...
- get medicine ready
- get towels ready
- get firstaid kit ready
- search for cat #1
- find cat hiding under bed
- try to grab cat from under bed
- watch cat suddenly develop jet assist and VTOL capabilities
- apply first aid kit to various wounds from cat's escape
- find cat hiding under sofa
- grab cat and drag to appropriate medicating location
- apply medication
- find applied medication in left nostril, ear, or under nearby furniture
- apply medication again
- remove teeth and claws from sensitive body parts while not releasing cat
- reposition cat from its location on head to appropriate medicating location
- force fluids into cat's mouth
- clean fluids from arm, chair, floor: note that cat's mouth is still dry
- successfully force fluid into cat's mouth
- use first aid kit on various claw marks on head, arms, and face while holding on to cat
- reposition cat from its location on back to appropriate medicating location
- force "palatable nutrient paste" into cat's mouth
- remove "palatable nutrient paste" from eye, elbow, and wall: note that cat has not eaten any food
- successfully force paste into cat's mouth
- attempt to clean cat
- conclude that cleaning cat is not worth any further scars
- release cat and apply first aid kit to various wounds
- search for cat #2...
