Re: How to give a Worm Tablet to our Cat

Mate I thought you were feeding dry only?
Good luck x were you going to powder it and get wet food to mix it in with? Only cos I don't fancy ur chances of hiding it in biscuits, and also you'll be very lucky if you can get a cat to yomp down a pill hidden in a bit of sausage or cheese like a dog - they really are devious and will even hold it in their mouth and spit it out when they think you're not watching! And if you break it up and the cat doesn't get the whole dose - well she won't have been wormed.
Honestly - in the nicest possible way, man up and just whack it down her neck. You'll do fine

Re: How to give a Worm Tablet to our Cat

Sometimes it isn't as easy as throwing it down their neck.

My partner and I tried several times to worm Enzo by pill (including several snaps and bites) and even when we got it down his neck - he'd somehow hold it and spit it out after we thought he had swallowed it.

We ended up paying the vet to worm him. Then, the vet recommended Profender spot on for future worming Completely recommended for the difficult furballs

Good luck.

I know that's why I gave him as detailed as explanation as poss on the previous page
I assumed that the pills were what he had so that's what he'll want to work with, at least till the next time
