Feeding a cat medicine is the most difficult thing for an owner. If you force the cat to take medicine, you are afraid that the cat will hurt it during its struggle. In the end, the medicine will not reach the mouth, and both the owner and the cat will be exhausted. Feeding a cat medicine is a game between the cat and its owner. As an owner, what can you do to win this battle?

1. "Simple and crude" type

1. Holding the head with one hand and opening the mouth with the other hand.

2. Use your fingers to push the tablet into your throat.

3. Close the cat’s mouth.

Advantages: You can be sure the cat is taking medicine

Disadvantages: Cats may associate head touching with taking medicine and refuse to be touched.

2. "Coaxing and deceiving" type

1. Mixing the medicine with food is usually enough.

2. Wrap the medicine in the cat’s favorite snacks and feed it.

3. Veterinarians in Europe and the United States will teach owners to stuff the medicine into small balls of unsalted butter and feed it to them, but misuse can cause cats to become overweight

Advantages: Let the cat take the medicine without knowing it

Disadvantages: If you meet a smart cat, you will be reluctant to eat food with medicine
