Thread: De-worming for cats

Hybrid View

  1. #1
    Hi,
    I just had a similar issue with my cat. I had to give her steroids because she had a serious allergy problem. I had to give her the pills 3 times day. In order to give her the pills, I would have to wrap her in a towel, making sure that her hands and feet are in the towel tight.... I would wrap her the way you would swaddle a newborn baby. Then, I would have someone else hold her and I would put my forefinger and thumb on her jaw and squeeze so her mouth would open. I would toss the pill in and close her mouth and blow on her face. I would also massage her throat (the blowing and massaging makes them swallow).

    It wasn't all that easy, but it worked.

    I'm guessing the 'worming pills' are for tapeworms?

    The towel trick DianeSnizzy suggested is a good one, def. worth a try!

    Good luck.
