They make these big syringe-type dealies for pills, if you decide to give that a try again. Basically, the pill goes in the tip of the syringe (there's no needle), you put the syringe in the corner of the mouth (this makes it harder for the cat to spit anything out), and you just plunge it on in there. Hold his mouth closed and rub his little throat a bit with your finger to help it go down. It gets to the back of the throat quicker, avoids the tongue, and saves you a mess. I would suggest trying to put the liquid medicine in through the corner of the mouth, as well.
