Greenies Feline Pill Pockets Soft Cat Treats, Chicken Flavor, 45 Count

I never write reviews, but these little things are a miracle! I have a cat that I love, but he is anxious and we were dealing with some behavior issues for years so I decided to put him on prozac. I couldn't get him to take it in wet food. After some research, I found these! He loves them. He swallows the treat whole and begs for another. I've only tried the chicken flavor. He loves taking his pill! 100% recommend trying.

Kit just started meds for hyperthyroidism and am giving her 1/2 a small tablet, twice a day. This is the first time we've ever had to give her any sort of medication in pill form. She's not all that food driven, so I was skeptical that we could fool her into taking her meds this way. Surprise ! ! ! If she could, she would eat this entire pack of pockets all by themselves in place of a meal. Couple of tips: - Moosh the entire pocket around the pill instead of just pinching the top closed. At first, I put the half pill inside, and just pinched the top opening closed. This sometimes would result in the pill falling out of the pocket because it wasn't "stuck" inside the pocket. No big deal, because she loves the taste of these so much, I just picked up the pill that fell out, and put it in another pocket. This time I smooshed the entire pocket around the pill. The pocket itself, is moist and pliable and very easy to moosh and seal (much like a pie crust in consistency). It is not too moist though, and it does not cause the pill to dissolve and affect the taste or alert the kit that there is anything inside. - To keep track of her daily meds, I prepare her two pockets every morning. She gets one with breakfast, and the other with dinner. Pre-pocketing the dinner's dose does not cause the pill to dissolve and does not affect her taking it just as eagerly. - Although I haven't needed to, a friend recently needed to give her cat a capsule that was too large for the pocket. I gave her a handful of pockets so she could test opening the capsule and emptying the powder in the pocket. She split the contents of the capsule between two pockets. She said it was a tedious process, but it worked. Something to keep in mind should I ever need to medicate in capsule form. Summary - - - happy cat getting her needed meds in a way she enjoys. Happy humans not having to stress the kit or themselves with their daily medication routine.

Saved my cat’s life when he needed to take a ridiculous amount of pills for a heart condition. He ate them up happily in these and I said a grateful prayer every time he did!!! I imagine that they work or don’t work depending on the cat! I stuffed two pills in and manipulated the pocket to save me on how many I needed per day. These are highly versatile!!

I wouldn't use these as simpIy a treat. I bought these in prep for pilling my cat who has cancer and has been throwing up daily, but her symptom has gone away with a non-pill product. She has lost half her weight and is now maintaining 5 lbs. I gave 4 as a treat to train her too accept ointment applied to the inside of her ear. I gave her four, a few days in a row. Mistake: vomited and didn't make it to the litter box in time and pooped a loose stool on the floor. It may have been the oil in the product. Anyway, try them! My cat loved them! I now give her a tiny piece (1/4 inch in diameter) as a reward after ointment treatment. She does't really need it because she doesn't resist treatment, but I just like to treat her. I would try one at first, then increase if you want. Maybe it wouldn't have the same symptoms. Anyway, Camille loved them.

If you can’t get your cat to take pills, get these. Best thing I have bought as the cat is actually excited to take the pills now. They are a little pocket that you put the pill in, and I do t know if the cat realizes it or not but is very happy to Chew it down! No problem now getting her to take her medication!

Listen... my cat is SMART. For example she likes to try to escape the house so we put a bell on her & she learned to walk without it making any noise so she could still get out. She will not take a pill. I tried for an hour & she would cheek it no matter how many tricks I used. I tried hiding it in wet food - nope. Hid it in Churu - also nope. She'd eat around anything I put it in & leave the pill. I was 100% certain that it was absolutely foolish to even try these pill pockets - she'd just eat the treat & not take the meds. Ordered them anyway because $10 for 3.5 months worth is too good a value not to at least attempt. So the next day they come in & I go to her with my bitten/scratched up hands from the previous day's debacle... eats the entire thing in less than 2 seconds & meows at me because she wants another. I cried because I was so relieved - if you know the struggle then you know exactly what I mean. She even tried to break into the bag for more in the wee hours of the morning whilst everyone slept. These things are a miracle! Are they a little oily & smelly? Yes. Are they healthy for my cat? I honestly have no idea. Did they arrive a little smushed & maybe not all entirely usable without some manipulation? Absolutely. But they are a complete lifesaver for my sanity and for my kitty's actual life. As an aside - they are super soft & moldable. Her pill is a little longer than the actual pill pocket itself so I just smush it around until it is covered. Even the broken/squished pockets can be mushed together & still work. I also considered breaking the pill in half (check with the vet first) and giving it to her in two different pill pockets if I needed to hide it better, but for her it worked with one.

I unveiled a pack of FELINE GREENIES PILL POCKETS for Cats, all-natural tender cat treats in chicken flavor, and my trio of cats eagerly consumed them. My expectations were high for these pill pockets as a functional solution to administer medication to my feline companions. However, the experience was a combination of good and bad outcomes. Despite my diligent attempts to make the pill pockets appealing, my trio of felines exhibited a minimal interest in these delicacies. Their tolerance for them was limited to instances when there was no concealed pill, as their enthusiasm rapidly dissipated. Adding insult to injury, one of my cats actually threw up after ingesting a pill pocket, resulting in significant distress for both of us. I argue these pill pockets might be more potent for particular felines. The Greenies bag sparked a genuine sense of curiosity in my cats from the start. Regrettably, their enthusiasm waned immediately upon tasting the pill pockets. I suspect the pill pockets' soft texture was a clear departure from the tougher Greenies treats they are used to, which appeared to confuse them. I must applaud the notion behind FELINE GREENIES PILL POCKETS, as they offer a hassle-free approach to give medication to felines. Despite my cats' varying reactions, I would endorse them to fellow cat owners, albeit with a cautionary note. These pill pockets may prove useful for certain cats, particularly those with less discerning taste buds. However, it's important to realize that the result can be unpredictable. While seeking an alternative method that would be more effective for my cat, I stumbled upon an alternative approach. I got a pill crusher from Amazon, enabling me to crush the medication into a fine powder. Subsequently, I mix the powdered medication with a diminutive portion of Science Diet food, almost the same width as a pinky finger. I have found this technique to be more efficient for medicating my cat than pill pockets. Ultimately, the FELINE GREENIES PILL POCKETS for Cats has both advantages and disadvantages. Despite being effective for a few cats, my trio of feline buddies didn't react positively to them. I experience both affection and animosity towards these pill pockets. Should you opt to try them out, I recommend testing various methods to determine the optimal approach for your feline. The individuality of each feline friend causes the identification of a personalized, efficient, and comfortable way to give medication.

These pill pockets saved me and my cat from traumatizing wrestling matches. I tried so many other ways to hide his pill in his food but my cat is smart and would always eat around it. This is the only thing that worked! Three tips that work for my cat: 1) I don't use the whole pill pocket - that makes it more somehow more obvious to my cat that it's hiding something; 2) I don't put it in his wet food - I add it to his slow feeder with some dry food and it's like a special treat (but I can't just HAND him a special treat or he will catch on!); 3) I also add a half a pill pocket WITHOUT the pill to his dry food in the afternoon, so he sees it as a normal part of his feeding and not in any way suspicious.

Unser Kater leidet an einer schweren Bauchspeicheldrüsenentzündung und muss aktuell drei verschiedene Antibiotika einnehmen. Am ersten Tag konnten wir die Tabletten noch mit Schleckies unterjubeln, aber danach hat er sofort gemerkt, was wir vorhaben. Von da an war es fast unmöglich, ihm die Medikamente zu geben. Es wurde sogar so schlimm, dass er kaum noch fressen wollte, weil er ständig vermutet hat, dass irgendwo eine Tablette versteckt ist. Wir haben wirklich alles ausprobiert: Leberwurst, laktosefreien Joghurt, verschiedene Tricks – nichts hat funktioniert. Dann bin ich über eine Google-Recherche auf diese Pill Pockets gestoßen. Ehrlich gesagt hatte ich nicht mehr viel Hoffnung. Und was soll ich sagen: Es hat sofort funktioniert! Wir konnten die Tabletten einfach darin verstecken und unser Kater hat das Leckerli ohne Zögern gefressen. Ich konnte mein Glück kaum fassen. Von mir eine ganz klare Kaufempfehlung!

My cat is so difficult to give medication to, but these have been an absolute game changer. Simple and effective. Sometimes they are a bit squashed by the time they arrive but they just mould around the tablet, and my cat loves the taste!

This is the best thingnive ever bought for my cat. Ginger is a finicky eater and extremely sensitive to meds. I've always struggled to give Ginger her meds, but this Greenies Pill pockets have been a God send. The pill pockets are soft and mouldable so it is very easy to hide a tablet in it. If the tablet is too big, I wither break it into 2 or I use 2 of these pill pockets. They are soft and so very easy to mesh 2 together and then stuff the tablet in it. Ginger gobbles it down in flash! Wish I had discovered this much earlier!

Mi gato no se deja tocar la boca así que es imposible darle medicamento. Gracias a este producto se devora el medicamento sin darse cuenta.
