I use a pill gun like this one then immediately follow up with a treat. He hates the pill but the sooner that's over with the sooner he gets the treat, and we have to do it again if he manages to spit the pill out. Treat doesn't come until the pill is swallowed.

Yeah this combined with tucking the cat in your armpit, works like a charm. They will hate it but it's effective!
