Wrap it in a towel so its arms and legs are tight by its side. Either hold the wrapped cat between your knees (kneeling on the floor) or under one arm. Knees is best, then you can use one hand to open the mouth and the other to pop in the pill. Hold the jaws shut and stroke the throat until it swallows.
I had months of doing this daily when popping it in her mouth (towel or no towel) was a total impossibility. I got by by hiding it in: cube of steak, chicken, pork or duck ! Hidden in those stick treats (bit like mini peperroni things), rolled in terrine style cat food, hidden in cheese.
Some ideas and good luck.

JOKE:
1) Pick cat up and cradle it in the crook of your left arm as if holding a baby. Position right forefinger and thumb on either side of cat's mouth and gently apply pressure to cheeks while holding pill in right hand. As the cat opens mouth pop pill into mouth. Allow cat to close mouth and swallow. 2) Retrieve pill from floor and cat from behind sofa. Cradle cat in left arm and repeat process. 3) Retrieve cat from bedroom, and throw soggy pill away. 4) Take new pill from foil wrap, cradle cat in left arm holding rear paws tightly with left hand. Force jaws open and push pill to back of mouth with right forefinger.
Hold mouth shut for a count of ten. 5) Retrieve pill from goldfish bowl and cat from top of wardrobe. Call spouse from garden. 6) Kneel on floor with cat wedged firmly between knees, hold front and rear paws. Ignore low growls emitted by cat. Get spouse to hold head firmly with one hand while forcing wooden ruler into mouth. Drop pill down ruler and vigorously rub cat's throat. 7) Retrieve cat from curtain rail, get another pill from foil wrap. Make a note to buy new ruler and repair curtains. Carefully sweep shattered figurines and vases from hearth and set to one side for gluing later. 8) Wrap cat in large towel and get spouse to lie on cat with head just visible from below armpit. Put pill in end of drinking straw, force mouth open with pencil and blow down drinking straw. 9) Check label to make sure pill is not harmful to humans, drink 1 beer to take taste away. Apply Band-Aid to spouse's forearm and remove blood from carpet with cold water and soap. 10) Retrieve cat from neighbour's shed. Get another pill. Open another beer. Place cat in cupboard and close door onto neck to leave head showing. Force mouth open with dessert spoon. Flick pill down throat with elastic band. 11) Fetch screwdriver from garage and put cupboard door back on hinges. Drink beer. Fetch bottle of scotch. Pour shot, drink. Apply cold compress to cheek and check records for date of your last tetanus jab. Apply whiskey compress to cheek to disinfect. Toss back another shot. Throw tee-shirt away and fetch new one from bedroom. 12) Ring fire brigade to retrieve the friggin' cat from tree across the road. Apologize to neighbour who crashed into fence while swerving to avoid cat. Take last pill from foil wrap. 13) Tie the little @#!*#^~!'s front paws to rear paws with garden twine and bind tightly to leg of dining room table, find heavy duty Pruning gloves from shed. Push pill into mouth followed by large piece of fillet steak. Be rough about it. Hold head vertically and pour 2 pints of water down throat to wash pill down. 14) Consume remainder of Scotch. Get spouse to drive you to the emergency room, sit quietly while doctor stitches fingers and forearm and removes pill remnants from right eye. Call furniture shop on way home to order new table. 15) Arrange for RSPCA to collect mutant cat from hell and ring local pet shop to see if they have any hamsters.

Cats are awkward because they are hard to fool. When it's pill time for my dog I give it to her as a treat, then try and take it away from her. That's it, it's hers and noone is going to take it away! Before I know it, the pills have been gobbled.
With my cats, I would give them a cuddle, then tilt their head and hold mouth open with fingers, then physically pop tablet in. Then shut the cats mouth and hold closed whilst stroking it's throat, which will force the cat to swallow. Then feed cattykins a nice big treat as a reward and entice towards the water bowl.
If your cat is a bit stupid, roll the pill around in tuna or hide the tablet in it's food. Only one of my cats has ever fallen for this.

This is probably a stupid question but I am going to ask it anyway. Does anyone know if there's anything which can restore or or prevent my dog's hair going grey? I was shocked at the vet's the other day when we met a dog of the same breed only two years younger than mine but with no grey fur at all. Mine started to go grey on her face about a year ago, but she's only eight. Although it gives her face character, with pronounced eyebrows, I'm concerned that the food I'm giving her might have something to do with it. Any ideas?
