Pill popper

What pill popper do you use


I have a kitty that is like an alligator to pill. And she can hawk up any pill I try to give her. She is CKD and is at a point she needs pepcid on a constant basis.


Any recommendations would be great.

This is the one I use. Less than $4 on amazon and seems to work really well.

 

I've used this type often and it works well. Be careful, though, if the pill or piece of pill is very small because it can fall out of the rubber tube at the end as you move the pill gun toward kitty's mouth.

 

Since you'll probably be quartering the pepcid, you might also consider getting gelcaps to put the pill in. That might also help with the tiny piece of pill staying put in the popper. I use them because Oreo takes 2 different pills, and with the gelcap, I only have to pill her once. I can relate to the alligator comment and was in tears trying to pill her before I started using a pill popper.

 

Thank you!

 

Tracey, that's the same popper I use, it works wonders. I would be fingerless without it!

I find that the pill tends to fall/be dislodged from the ones with the soft rubber tip.
