How to properly feed medicine to cats

Giving medication to cats is a painful task for the owner because most cats will not cooperate honestly and it often takes a lot of effort to get the medication into the cat’s mouth. There are also many times when the owner’s technique is not correct, resulting in the cat will eat the medicine and then spit it out. Let me introduce how to feed the medicine to the cat correctly. Feeding steps 1. Feeding tablets 1) The owner first pinches the tablet with the right thumb and index finger, the left hand tilts the cat’s head up slightly to roughly a 45-degree angle, using the index thumb to stimulate, key open the cat’s jaw and hold it against so that it cannot be closed. 2) Quickly put the tablet pinched by the thumb and index finger into the cat’s throat, the closer it is to the throat and the root of the tongue, the better, so that the cat cannot pop the medicine out with its tongue. 3) Quickly close the cat’s mouth with your hand and then pinch it so that it has no chance to spit out or shake its head to shake out the pill, do not let go immediately and wait for a moment. 4) While performing the third step, gently stroke the cat’s throat up and down with your right hand and wait to hear the cat perform several swallows to ensure that the pill is swallowed before letting go. 5) It should be noted that some of the more resourceful cats will learn to keep the medicine in their mouths after a few times and wait for people to After letting go, they will spit it out secretly. To deal with such cats, extend the time of steps 3 and 4, and stimulate the throat with a pinch of the finger from the outside if necessary. 2. Feeding liquid medicine can use a 5 ml syringe, fixing the cat in the same way as feeding tablets, holding a syringe with the needle removed in the right hand and injecting the medicine from the corner of the cat’s mouth (i.e. the space between the back groove teeth). 3. Feeding cream medicine 1) Smear the cream medicine on the cat’s nose. (2) Even if the cat does not want to, it will generally lick the medicine into its mouth and eat it. Be sure to make sure the feeder is working properly before feeding. Grasp the cat’s head with your left hand and tilt it back, hold the feeder in your right hand and quickly reach into the cat’s mouth and quickly shoot the medication at the base of the cat’s tongue. can swallow the medication more easily.
