Can I crumble the worming tablet over their food :? My little angels have wasted 4 tablets today :roll:
I tried worming Jerry first and he just kept spitting it out,so in the end I broke the tablet up in to quarters and put in in their food but non of them have eaten it :roll:

I should imagine it will be fine to crumble it over their food Erin but they might not eat the food :? Have you tried the panacur favourites which taste like treats? Or you might find Panacur paste easier??

They run off spitting the paste all over the place Fran,last time I did Milo and Tink with the paste I was following them wiping it up,most of it ended up on the floor :lol:
I tried Jerry on the panacur favourites once and he just looked at me as if to say you must be joking :roll: I havnt tried them with the babies though,may be worth a try.
My vets have that new spot on stuff but its so expensive!!!!! I suppose it wouldnt be that bad if I just have to get it for Jerry if the kittens would take the panacur favourites,im babbleing now arnt I :roll:

Erin, as you and everyone here probably know, I cannot pill a cat...:oops:...their "won't" power is much greater than my will power; and they would eat around it in food. If you can find the liquid liver-flavored wormer there, try that! Works for me! And not pricy, either.

Panacur Favourites appear to suit Cassie best, she will eat them out of my hand, also if they're crumbled into her food..:D

Shall we just say that Sylvester is a little how shall we put it?.... 'keen' with everyone and everything :shock: :roll: But he still gets wormed every three months along with everyone else ;)

Amber gets a Drontal tablet shoved down her throat using a pill popper and avoids me like the plague for the following day :-D

Have you tried using a pill popper? They are fairly easy to use and allow you to get the tablet to the back of the throat without getting your fingers bitten off :lol:

Patch and Meow both have Panucar Favourites and take them with no problems ;) Patch eats it like a treat and Meow eat it off her food.

Why not try Panacur Liquid instead of the paste. That is what I wormer all my cats and all the kittens with and never have a problem with it. Even bossy Tilly takes it that way. It is worth a try.
