how to give medication? For some strange reason, in Korea, medication comes in powder form. After getting spayed, Coco got a mixture of pain killer and antibiotics (so she won't get infections during healing) in a powder form and I'd mix it in can food and she'd eat that right up! Now that she's off of it and shes on skin medication for a week (also powder) she won't eat it when mixed with can food!!! I gave her the can food by itself and she would eat that but not canfood mixed with the medication. For the past two med time I just poured the powder into her mouth but I feel that its very mean. Anyone know other creative way that they feed their pet meds? (especially powder)? |
My Chloe takes a liquid medicine that she HATES- the vet said it is because it has a very strong taste- so the trick is to use a food that has a very strong odor to cover the meds. I use lots of different things, chicken baby food, sardines, tuna juice, canned tuna, homecooked fish, parm. cheese, etc. |
Bump! |
Can you mix the medicine with a little yougurt? good Luck! |
Korea doesn't sell plain yogurt... even their plain yogurt has a ton of sugar :( Its strange how she used to eat her meds with can food but with the switch of medication she won't :( I will try chicken hopefully she can't resist the taste of chicken to pass it up :P |
Can you get greenie's pill pockets? It's a treat that is hollow in the center. You place the meds inside. All of mine gobble these down....no more fighting to get them to take a pill or medicine they don't like. |
can you mix it with a little chicken broth and put it into a syringe and squirt it into her mouth? |
