  • That's great! We're so glad to be able to help!

    Our Mia ( The cat in the video ) is still hanging

    in there even though she has an irreversible and fatal condition. Cats are amazing animals

    that have enriched all of our lives.....

  • Glad this was of help as you know giving your cat a pill can be quite challenging !! LOL

  • Thank you SO much! This was extremely helpful! :D Putting the cat on the towel vs. trying to wrap a cat in a towel while hes standing is much much easier. Also, having the cat on its back is brilliant! Pill goes right in! So far I got my Bengal to take 19 Metronidazole pills in the past few weeks for Giardia, thanks to you! <3

  • This worked much better than any other method I've tried. My cat still wriggled quite a bit once she realised what was happening, but there was no spitting out of the pill or missing her mouth. Thank you :)

  • If you tried this with our cat Biggles he'd swipe your head off before you got the towel anywhere near him. I grind the tablet down and mix with a little cream...he takes it no problem that way.

  • OMG! We've been trying to pill my kittie every 12 hours & it is so hard! But we almost lost him to undetected heart disease, so whatever it takes to keep him healthier as long as we can....

  • @MissBassoonaroo The music is as dramatic as my cat is about taking medicine!

  • OMG im so glad you made this video! After trying the way several others showed I had almost given up on giving my cat medicine myself. This work right away though and I didnt get my finger bitten off. Thank you so much!

  • dude, overly dramatic music - makes me more scared of giving a cat a pill than the cat is swallowing it.

  • Many thanks for this video. Our cat got very sick suddenly and stopped eating and drinking. In spite of two instructional sessions from the vet, we still didn't know how to give him his meds or force feed him. We were almost at our wits' end when we found your video. It was the most helpful video by far. Using the cocoon and burrito method, we were finally able to give him his meds plus the food he needs this morning.

  • thanks for that great instructional-it gives me confidence in trying to give my cat her drontal pill-last night I tried with no luck...
