Difficult to give

We just started giving my kitty yesterday so how effective I have to go back to follow up. My almost 17 year old cat contracted pancreatitis in December and we are working to get her out of the acute stage. I hope this will help keep her from chronic exacerbations. We have switched her food to what our vet recommended, but it is dry food. My issue with this pill is that cats and dogs weighing less than 20 pounds are recommended to break it up and halve it twice a day. Most of the reviews I've seen are from dog owners, and the only cat review was here on Revain, where the person said their cat can't process that much at once, so we only wanted to do 1/4 twice a day of this one Moment. My problem is that I have to open the capsule without spilling the powder everywhere. And then when I open it up and pour it into anything (be it 1/2 or 1/4), how do I store half a capsule full of powder so it doesn't spill all over the place? Even if I can't give her a pill and have to give it as a powder, that's a problem because my cat eats solid food. The suggestion in the instructions is that I can mix it with their soft food or treat. she has pancreatitis, so we don't risk giving her treats at the moment. We tried powdering her solid food and although she was obviously hungry she didn't eat. So at the moment we get them to eat something if we mix something with water and then soak their solid food in it, which can take more than 30 minutes for the food to be ready for them. I don't quite understand why they can't make smaller capsules for small animals OR if you say I need to deal with powder just sell it as powder instead of letting us deal with capsules.

Pros
  • Digestives
Cons
