Greenies pill pockets work wonders for pills! They are soft treats you pinch around the pill. They usually don’t even realize the pill is in there. Bonus they love it as a treat, because it taste good, it contains much needed moisture, fiber, protein, & fat as well. No preservatives, fillers, or artificial flavors! I give my cat a daily multi vitamin in them, because he is such a picky eater. I break it into fours, and pinch the greenie around it. He loves it!

Cats in these videos are almost always peaceful little angels. If my cat was like that I wouldn't need to watch a video on giving him medicine in the first place. People who watch these videos have hellbeasts that would murder 7 people if they even tried to put them in a burrito.

Rn thats me honestly my cat (Chen Cha) has been really on edge, normally she isn’t like this but we brought in a new cat (Gibbson) and ever since then she has been hissing and scratching and about 5 days ago they had a cat fight. Took them both to the vet, gibbson is okay, but chen cha got her by gibbson and it was bleeding. Called the vet they said only had appointment available on saturday at 2pm. I called friday to see if they can fit her in but they said no, and her injury was getting smelly. I went in saturday and they told me “Next time it happens bring her in earlier and not wait so long”…… I didn’t say anything but I was stressed and overwhelmed, even now bc she has an infection in her ears, she needs to take in liquid medicine for the injury and her infection and she wont let me give her medicine, we have tried to scruff her, wrap her in a towel, hold her still- idk what to do anymore at this point. Like I said she has never been like this, she normally likes to cuddle and lets me pet her and lets me give her kisses 🥹

@@jaeee0393 please look up vids and info on how to introduce new cats. Don't just throw the new cat in there and hope for the best... As for meds, you can just rather hide it in wet food (I cram it into the chunks) or get pill pockets from Greenies. Peanut butter is also great for hiding pills and cause it's sticky the pill is less likely to be spat out.

alot less resistance? That is no resistance, this is like every other cat video that says they have a rough cat, but the cat just sits there and takes it. If all my cat did was a sad face, I'd consider it to be a success. I love how every clip shrugs off the fact you can just carry your cat and put her over the towel and wrap it around her.

@@irismoon8435 Just rather hide the pills in some wet food or pill pockets. I don't have pill pockets where I'm from so I make a mixture of wet food (the pate kind) and peanut butter to wrap around the pill. The PB works great cause it's sticky so chances are the pill will get licked up together. I also asked if some pills could be in liquid form so I could easily just add it to some gravy.

I was explaining a cat burrito and my husband thought it was a "how to get your cat to kill you" idea. Your video was very helpful. I wish my cat was as calm as yours when taking pills. Mine is an anger ball with a long memory

Hot tip: use an old, large towel. First time my son and I did the burrito wrap which had to be done at speed on our feisty cat, he kicked so hard with his back legs that he managed to rip a big tear in the towel and reverse out and through my son’s lap. My son is an adult btw. 😂

with my cat, i would sit and hold him in my lap while he’s on his back and have someone keep his head still. then i would open his mouth by pinching the sides of his mouth by his back teeth until his mouth opens enough and, quickly, put the syringe into his throat and give the meds. this has also worked for me when giving him pills. with pills, i close his mouth for a few seconds to make sure that he’s swallowed it. when i get his mouth open enough she usually does that cat thing and they try to get their head away from you. that’s why i have someone hold the back of his head so he can’t move as much. the beeg boi is in my profile pic

So your cat always runs from you? You never get to pet your cat? It really is as simple as grabbing your cat by the scruff and putting them onto the towel while keeping them by the scruff. Once you get them by the scruff they're easy work. Just put them on the towel and wrap them up. I've done it with the friendliest cats in the world to the worst cats from hell and I haven't gotten scratched or bitten yet! I should knock on wood now but yea. While your cat is eating just get him/her by the scruff. You win

I really really appreciate your enthusiasm on these videos. Thanks for the inspiration. I’m so worried my cat is already pissed at me from going to the vet. Now it’s med time. I’m starting to think they really hold grudges. I just started getting hugs again today. Oh well. Here goes something.

I struggled in every way trying to give liquid medication--in his food--uh uh--didn't like the smell...in his mouth--very hard. So, I tried putting the liquid medicine on his paw--it worked. he shakes some of it off--true but licks down the rest.

It's very different when they don't feel well and have been to the vet and tired of people messing with them. Of course they are going to cooperate when it's not important. But we get the idea. Thanks!

You are brilliant! After three days of struggling was finally able to give my cat his eye medicine in both eyes. Thank you!!

There is no way I could do this with my cat, great video!

Beautiful cats. Will be trying this on my beautiful gangster cat tomorrow.

Luna is such an adorable baby!!!!

Thanks for making this video. It is very helpful. We recently adopted a rescue that is ill and needs medication several times a day. Making our kitten into a purrito for meds times is a whole lot easier and less stressful. And she knows she gets a tastey kitty treat afterwards.

Different matter if your cat BITES! LOL! But yes great idea. Much appreciated.

Thank you for showing three different kitties.

I cracked up when the orange cat wouldn't come out from under the desk! Definitely have had that experience before. Also, grey cat's face when he was wrapped up was priceless.

This is adorable!! Glad to see that you love your cats and they were given medicine in the least cruel way possible. If only they used the towel wrap for administering medication to cattle on farms!!

Thanks so much for this. Very helpful! You’re right, the first several videos I watched didn’t address at all how to handle a resistant cat.

We’ll today Miss Nala says no way,no how. She won’t take either.We tried tuna in the carrier. She jumps out too fast. I have severe arthritis and limited in how fast I move and how much I can bend. My son is getting pill pockets and those creamy treats in a tube . I guess we can hide the treats in that. I wish I thought of making a ball of tuna with the treat in the middle. I’ve used the towel but have to grab her quick. She won’t just sit there. Oh well. Our cat is a sweetie. She was a stray for a year (as a kitten) and probably wasn’t picked up much. She is a love bug otherwise.

Best thing to do is get your cat used to being held or touched. Then you place them on the towel. Grip them firmly with one hand and use the other to drape the ends of the towel over them. The cats head should be facing away from you. Using one hand you pull on the cats neck from the front toward you so they can't move forward or backwards.

Been trying for over 2 weeks at this point! He's NOT gettin' on a raised surface if a human is around EITHER! But, your tip about getting them used to the towel under them is a VERY good one...

Hi is your cat a Bombay? We have our second Bombay by chance second one started coming to us outside and she's ours now. Our 1st one of 17 years passed away a month before. So God had his hand in it. Our vet confirmed she's definitely full blood Bombay! She looks just like your kitty.

Thanks for the details. It's been many years since I've had a really difficult cat and a cat demon next door who comes and attacks my cats in broad daylight. Hence the need to medicate. She's otherwise a very sweet and retiring kitty but with meds, it's scratch, claw, hiss and OW! BTW for judgy people I was outside with the cats; it still happened. *1/2 hour later* tried a trial run with 7 month-old very rambunctious male (neutered) kitten. Even with scruffing (he got insulted) I could NOT secure him in the towel. Those back legs were like clawed kicking stilts, no way I could wrap him. Good thing he's not the one I'll be medicating.

it is not easy with an uncooperative kitty but i was able to get it done following your methods, thanks for that.

Thank you guys so much! I'm gonna try this in a hour and comment how it worked out for me! My cat is the sweetest but bit the tech vet yesterday and I'm scared he will bite me when I give him meds alone today!!
