Vetoquinol 429022 Pill Wrap,4 oz

One of our cats recently developed heart problems and had to take medicine daily. He's the most nervous and easily frightened cat of the dozen or so we've had so grabbing him to squirt medicine in his mouth was incredibly difficult. And I'm sure he was terrified every time we did it. But we learned from our vet of a service called MixLabs that mix the medicine into an edible "treat". He hates taking medicine and even in treat form, he refuses to take it. We found this product and figured it was worth a shot and it has worked perfectly. We wrap the pill/treat in some of this stuff and he eats it right up. It has made ours and his life so much easier. It's basically like bacon flavored Play-Doh. You just pull out a little bit and wrap the pill or whatever in it. Make sure that the pill stays within the wrap and doesn't touch any of the exterior. Your pet will smell the meds if it touches the outside of the wrap. One trick we do is to stick a crunchy treat on the side. The pill wrap is kind of slick and it sometimes is difficult for my cat to pick up and keep in his mouth while chewing. The dry treat gives his tongue something to grip while he licks it up and chews it. And it masks the smell of the medicine even more. This stuff is kind of expensive but it's worth every penny to us. Before the pill wrap, our cat was always nervous around us and scared that we'd pick him up and squirt horrible medicine in his mouth. But now he just happily takes his medicine and isn't worried around us.

I have to give my cat a pill daily and was using pill pockets from another brand but my cat started to reject them after biting through to the pill a few times. I needed something that could completely conceal the pill so I decided to try this just to switch it up. Best thing I’ve done and wish I had done it sooner! The texture is semi-firm so it conceals the pill well and you can build layers. My cat takes her daily pill so easily and quickly now, no fuss! And she absolutely loves the flavor. If I don’t give her the med on time, she will remind me to give her some Vetoquinol. She goes crazy when I open the jar. Oh and there’s NO CHICKEN for the babies with GI/allergy issues! Other details: seal was intact; product is quite oily; good size and amount of product; absolutely worth the money.

This product was delivered fast, but as it turned out, the pet I ordered it for no longer needed it so I returned it. But I've ordered it in the past for a cat that had to have medicine twice a day and I was able to hide it in this stuff for months without any issues and this cat was being picky about pill pockets and was very traumatized by being forced a pill. This is a great product and I will definitely order it the next time I have a situation where I have to give a cat medicine who is ornery about it

Great pill wrap that really works! I just wrap the pill, put it in with my dog's food and WALLA, gone. No hassle at all.

I got this because my old cat started getting picky about her pill pockets. At first I was discouraged because she wouldn’t touch her pill after I wrapped it in this paste. But then I started breaking her favorite treats apart and stuck the pieces on top of the paste. With very few exceptions, she always takes her pill now. She takes steroids and occasionally cerenia for nausea. The cerenia is the really nasty one, so if you need to give your cat this, make sure it doesn’t touch the outside of the wrapping. Four stars for versatility and general effectiveness. I left off one star because without covering it with a treat, picky cats will still avoid this.
