My cat had been losing weight and the vet could not figure out what was wrong. She believed that the cat has acid reflux and the vet said to give her a 1/4 piece of a acid reducer pill (famotidine) to help her out with the reflux. She took the pill for around a month and gained weight and was doing so much better. She went up from 6.6 to 7.2 lbs and you could feel her body filling out. It was working. But now she is refusing to take the pill. She hides it in her cheeks, spits it out, bites, and it is stressing her out too much. I tried putting it in food, but then she won't eat the food. I can tell the acid is a problem again, by noises she makes and the fact that now that she isn't taking the pill she is losing weight again.
Does anyone have any suggestions as of how to get her to take her pill? Nothing that I do is working!
