How to give medications to sick cat?
If the cat drinks milk, then the medication may be concealed in milk and given. However, do consult a veterinarian on this. This is because that drugs like tetracycline should not be given along with milk. If not, by taking proper care, give some palatable feed to the cat. But, the cat may be made hungry by giving food in a delayed manner and in such occasions, mix the tablet or powder with food. You need to approach the veterinarian for parenteral therapy with different kinds of drugs. If you need to give solution or a tablet by mouth in a cat that declines to eat, you have to be careful in using a dropper and place the medicines by side of the mouth only to avoid entry into lungs. Hence, aspiratory type of pneumonia can be avoided in such cases. Related Sites Genet Not your average domestic cat!
