Does anyone own one of these? I would like to know how rough the surface is, because I need a better M&P for crushing my cat's pills (he has to take prednisone, which I mix with meat baby foods, the only way to get these in him without shoving them down his throat). My current mortar is a cute little chinatastic ceramic deal that kinda absorbs a bit of the powder into the microscopic valleys/divots in the ceramic/porcelain. I know the mortar and pestle have to offer a certain amount of friction to be useful, but I am looking for something that will release the resultant powder so that I don't have to worry about losing a bunch of the medication, and it would also be nice if I didn't have to have multiple M&Ps to avoid cross-contamination should my dog also need a pill ground up for some reason in the future.
Thanks!

TipsyMacScotchslurpenIt is on the smoother side of M&Ps I have seen while still being functional. I think you would do best with the smallest model to reduce surface area.

kstokleyThanks for the reply! Yeah, I would definitely go as small as they make. I tend to work the pills with the mortar tilted toward the spout, and the pill in the "corner" ( or, rather, the most curved portion of the mortar between the base and wall under the spout) to reduce the surface area used.

TipsyMacScotchslurpenI've had one of these for years, you should have no problem grinding pills up with it and it will release the powder. You could always use a dry brush to ensure you get it all out.
