I agree. If you can't crush it then you can get a pill syringe. It holds the pill to be able to pop it to the back of her throat. Then you close her mouth and massage her neck. She will swallow it. I use it for my cats. It is a godsend. The vet has them.

I hope you find out what is causing this with Luma. Sending out good thoughts to you both
