If you own an Abyssinian cat or any breed of cat then you may be all too familiar with the complications that may be involved when trying to get your cat to swallow a pill. If you have trouble giving your cat pills make sure you ask your vet for assistance. Some cat owners have found that they can hide the pill in a pill pocket or treat pocket and simply feed it to their cat. One of the most recommended ways to give a cat a pill is to place your thumb and forefinger on the side of the cat’s face and gently apply pressure between the teeth. This will cause the cat to open her mouth. Press down on the lower jaw and place the pill in the back of the mouth. Massage your cat’s jaw to encourage swallowing. If this doesn’t work, ask your vet clinic Kerrville, TX for a chewable form of the medicine. Learn more here.
