What are some ways you have administered these to your cat?

Generally if I opened the capsule and squeeze the liquid into his food, my cat was willing to eat the food.

I clip off the end of the liquid-filled capsule with cat nail clippers and pour it on my cat's canned cat food. My vet recommended this method and it works.

Our cat would not take it voluntarily, so I put her in my lap on her back, and drizzled a little of it on her muzzle with an oral syringe. When she opened her mouth to lick it off, I squirted the rest into her mouth. I kept her on my lap and rubbed her belly for a little while afterward -- if I put her down, she would try to drool the Welactin out, but she would not drool onto herself.

Squirted on wet food. Capsule is NOT edible, rather they are meant to be a dosing tool.

After cutting the end of capsule, I just squeeze the oil on top of the wet food in the mornings (separate servings) and both cats seem to like it, which I was surprised. Feeding wet food, I make a small dip in the middle and put the oil in the dip. You could try that and then mix it up with the food. It has definitely helped both cat's skin and coats. Good luck and if you have any more questions, let me know. B. Dixon

I put about 15 of her kibbles in a bowl and squirt the oil on top. She gets her "juicies" each night, before her CET dental chew.

This is a human size capsule, so you cannot get a cat to swallow it. You simply pull one open and sprinkle the powder on wet food. My cats don't even know it is there and it goes right down! (I use ocean fish pate.)

Comparing them to human capsules, they are small. For a cat, however, they are not that small and I would think that if your cat is eating around other capsules, it could eat around these as well. These work best with a piller.

It's easy for me. My cat is used to me putting them on him. He sits there quietly, calmly and lets me put them on him. I just sit him on the sink in the restroom and put them on.

I use Science Diet prescription and regular. One has extremely small pieces and the other is more medium. I just have to find the balls to replinish each morning. The balls go under most of my furniture. Both of my cats really seem to enjoy dispensing their own cat food.

Things like canned kitten food and anything with a high crude fat content (I would aim for 9%) would work (the paper instructions you get with the medication also recommends adding a couple drops of olive oil to help). All cat food comes with a guaranteed food analysis, so check that for crude fat content. I would recommend going to a local pet store or chain like Petco or Petsmart and checking out good quality products by Blue and Natural Balance for the good high crude fat content. In the refrigerated section, Freshpet Vital for Cats (and similar refridgerated food) also has high crude fat content.

Yes, My cat will not eat her food if I sprinkle it on her food. She takes the pill just fine. If you are comfortable pilling you cat fell free too. The box says you can either sprinkle the capsules on food or pill you cat. It is effective either way.

Make sure you are using the proper dosage that the manufacturer recommends. Saving and loving 11 cats and being responsible for their health is commendable!

From observing my cat after he's taken them, I'm not sure these would be strong enough to help your cat under such a stressful circumstance. I wish I could be more helpful.

I buy "temptations" treats, about 15 into bowl, then put 1 drop on top of each one. My cat loves it. I have another pain medication I do the same way with another 15 treats. You can add 1 tablespoon, twice daily into the drinking water. I see less waste using the dropper.

my cat started eating them too. after she vomited all over the house, she seemed to be fine. i was trying to find out the chemical composition of the pellets just to be safe.

They're pretty hard. I can break them into tiny pieces with my fingers and drop them into the food bowl. My stinky cat eats them, but another non-stinky cat won't eat them (but then, he only likes cheese for treats). So, if your cat won't eat them as treats, you might try crumbling them and putting them on his/her food.

Don't have cats so I'm not sure... Try Google or your vet .. sorry I couldn't help with that one

I do not know of any sure fire way except the obvious...dilute the liquid with water or unplug it for a few hours a day or overnight. It seems to bring a lot of peace to our two cats. They always sleep for hours in the room where the diffuser is plugged. Buy refills in quantity to safe....good luck

Catnip usually works. Also, my cat likes ribbon so i tied a piece of ribbon to it and she loves it

I am not positive that you can give this to your cat but I do not see why not. It can be taken by humans and dogs, so... Either way a call to a vet would be absolute safest way to go.

They are capsules, so they are not tiny pills. Our cat could pick them out of pill pockets, so we just have to grab his scruff, pull back his head and pop a capsule into his throat. Then repeat. He used to fight, but now it's routine.
