Cats often do not want to take medicine in pill form.
In this article, we will tell you how you can outwit your pet.
How to give a pill to a cat
First, lift the cat's head and throw it back.
Gently press the cat's cheekbones from the side of the teeth, then place the tablet on the root of the tongue.
After this, close the animal's mouth and stroke the neck along the esophagus.
Make sure your cat swallows a couple of times.
After this, it is important to pet and give your pet his favorite treat.
If, according to the instructions, it is allowed to give the tablet in powder form, then you can dissolve it in water and pour it into the cat’s mouth using a syringe without a needle.
Pour the solution from the side, between the molars.
Always get your veterinarian's express permission before giving cats medication in this manner.
You can also hide the tablet in your pet's food. For example, in canned meat food or canned fish.
