Hi @Saltrams I have attached various other threads relating to pilling but basically it’s when you need to give a pill, (to administer medication), to your cat or dog or various other pets.
Part of me feels like I can learn pilling pets easily and nothing bad will happen to my hand, but I am also nervous about getting attacked or antagonizing the pet. Can anyone tell me more of their experiences with this, please, with sitters new to it? Thanks.
Giving a cat a pill is often a Herculean feat … and while we don’t want to make light of the task we would always advise putting clothes on first [Screen Shot 2022-08-13 at 5.59.08 PM]
Learning how to give medicine to a cat is an important skill to master. Though it may not be simple, it is absolutely possible, especially when you’re armed with the right tools and tricks.
We’d love it is you’d share your feline pill giving skills

Hi guys,
I’ve pilled a cat many times before but this time I can’t put it in food as she’s only taking liquid, the cat is afraid of me still so catching her is a battle. I spoke to the THS vetline suggested using pill drop but I’m struggling to keep this cat still and open her mouth to use.
Any thoughts. It’s vital I give the cat her pills.
