In this informative article, we’ll tell you three of the most effective, personally proven ways to feed your cat.
Method 1: Sit on the floor and put the cat with its back to you so that it has no chance to escape or break free. Grip the pellet with fingers of your right hand, put your left hand on the cat’s head and tilt it up. At the same time press on the base of the jaw. When the cat opens its mouth, push the pill under the tongue as deep as possible. Close the cat’s mouth and start stroking the throat from top to bottom until the pill is swallowed;
Method 2. Wrap the cat in a towel so she can’t scratch you. Then take her like a baby in your left hand and begin manipulating the pill and mouth with your right hand. The method may seem harsh, but it works;
Method 3. Take the cat, put it on your lap. Stroke its belly so that the cat relaxes and doesn’t try to slip out of your hands. Then put your left hand on its head and with your thumb put it back, unclench its jaws. You have a pill in your right hand - send it into the mouth with your index finger.
If none of these suggestions help, consult your vet. It may well be possible to crush the tablet and mix it with water. It will be much easier to get it into the cat’s mouth than a solid tablet.
