Pilling Devices

Should you wish, you can use a pilling device to avoid placing your fingers into your cat's mouth. It is a plastic tube resembling a syringe used to deposit the pill.

• Place the pill at the end of the device.
• Hold the device like a syringe between your index and middle fingers, using your thumb to push the plunger.
• Tilt your cat's head back until his/her eyes are facing upward. Usually the cat's jaw will drop open on its own. If not, apply a little pressure on the lower jaw with your middle finger.
• Place the device over the base of the tongue.
• Push the plunger to deposit the pill as far back on the tongue as possible.
