Do you know how hard it is to give a pill to a cat?

Imagine a can of soup cranked to just shy of bursting point in a vise, then imagine prying open the can with a screwdriver, and then shoving a pill in the hole you made. At this point you have to keep the pill from getting back out of the can, despite the noodles trying to fly out the hole as well.

no, i didn't put the cat in a vise, but an angry cat tongue is similar to flying noodles.
