I also use plain, all meat chicken baby food, 2nd stage, Gerbers. I give a couple bits without the pill, then hide it in the 3-4 taste. And I always offer another taste after the one will the meds in it. I don't like mixing it a large amount of anything, then they have to eat too much to get the entire amount of medication.
Mine tend to want to chew the pill pockets, even when I use a small piece to wrap the pill in. As soon as they bite the med, out it comes, lol. | Yeah ours has a rubber tip. Callie is the same way when she goes to chew it and hits the pill she spits it back out then she is like uhhhh seriously you think I want to take something from you right now lol.
