ORAL FIP MEDS
Work Best When Given Right
The way meds are given is just as important as the meds themselves. Let's give every kitty the best chance at success!
Weigh Your Cat Weekly
Their dose is based on their weight. Weighing every Monday before eating is best practice.
Fast 1 Hour Before & After
No food 1 hour before and 1 hour after meds for best absorption and prevent vomiting.
Same Time Every Day
Consistency helps maintain steady med levels in their system.
Give All Meds Together
Give all meds together if more than one pill or capsule is needed.
Time-Released For A Reason
One of the reasons manufacturers do not recommend crushing or opening them.
Use A Pill Popper
Place pill popper towards the back of the tongue. Push the plunger. Offer a treat or water.
Churu On A Plate
Squeeze a small amount of Churu on a plate. Place the pill on top of the Churu. They should lick it right up!
Hide In A Meatball
Hide the pill in a small, meatball-sized piece of soft, smelly wet food.
Fingers Method
Use your thumb and index finger to gently open the mouth and place the pill down the side of the throat.
Follow With Water
Offer a few ML of water with a syringe (if tolerated) to help the pill go down.
Stay Calm & Confident
Kitties pick up on our energy. Stay calm, speak softly, and be patient.
Praise & Reward
Praise, pets, or a favorite treat after meds helps create positive associations.
Be Gentle & Persistent
It can take time to find what works best for your kitty. Don't give up!
