Instructions
Giving Capstar in Food
Place a small amount of food in your cat's dish at his regular feeding time.
Mix a Capstar tablet into the food and mix it up to completely hide the pill.
Watch the cat carefully to ensure that she eats the tablet rather than spitting it out.
Giving Capstar Orally
Have a helper hold the cat firmly.
Hold the cat's head firmly and tilt it back. The cat will most likely drop his lower jaw. If not, use your middle finger to pry open the lower jaw.
Continue to hold the lower jaw down with your middle finger and use your thumb and finger to push the pill as far back on the tongue as possible.
Close the cat's mouth and stroke his neck firmly to encourage swallowing.
Check the cat's mouth to ensure the pill was swallowed before you release him.
