7. I hope I can improve things

I just tried to put a topical on the kidcats. I managed Arthur and Sian but that was a struggle. Now the rest know what's up and they are hiding.

I struggle to even comb Madoc. I don't want to even think about how hard it will be to apply that topical. Gryff semi-cooperates to getting combed but the instant that topical hits him he goes into full on claws out, shred mom, got to escape mode. I tried to switch him to a pill but it's not easy tricking him into taking it. Not fun. Carys is still so reclusive that I have to get her to take a pill. I can usually hide one in her food.

I am going to order a 'pill shooter' from Amazon.

It's not even 10am and I'm already feeling defeated. My brother gets back on Friday and he has LOADS of experience with felines. I'm going to BEG him to come by next weekend to help me. I am just so frustrated and exhausted that I want to start crying again and I'm so tired of crying.

When I finish mowing the lawn I'm going to pour a glass of wine and take a long soak in a lavender intense bath. Hopefully that will hit the reset button.
