With an eye dropper and believe it or not through its nose. Hold the cats head up for gravity feed and drop the liquid into its nostril, it will require you to have a good hold on the cat.Do not put more liquid in at a time over a cats swallow as this will cause the cat to choke.

∙ 14y agoCoat it in butter. This not only hides the bad taste, but also helps it go down. Place you hand on top of your cats head and with your thumb and index finger gently press the corners of their mouth until they open. Put the pill in their mouth with your free hand and close their mouth. Hold their mouth closed until they lick their lips. If they lick their lips, they have swallowed the pill! =)

Is it safe to give zilactin to a cat that has a sore on the bottom of her chin and having her lick it and start foaming at the mouth for about one minute?
Seeing my cat foam at the mouth after giving him some medicine would make me think I shouldn't have given the medicine to the cat. People medicine and animal medicine are not the same.

If a cat licks topic medicine will she get sick?
I am assuming you meant "topical medicine" not "topic medicine." For those who may not know what is meant by a "topical medicine" - it is a medicine which is applied to the exterior of a cat (or a human or dog, etc.) The opposite of topical is "systemic." Systemic refers to inside the cat or in the cat's systems. An example of a systemic medicine is a pill which you would give to your cat to swallow. There are some topical medicines which can be applied to one part of the cat but not to another. For example, there might be a medicine that you can put on a cut or scratch but not on the cat's eye. Whether or not is is safe to apply a topical medicine to any part of your cat depends upon the medicine and where you are going to apply it. One rule to follow when putting any medicine on your cat is: Anything that goes on a cat will go into the cat. That means that if you put something on your cat, they will very likely lick it and thus it will go inside of them - thus a topically applied medicine will become a systemic medicine because the cat licks it and perhaps swallows it or it is absorbed by the tissues in the cat's mouth. Some topical medications may be dangerous if the cat takes them systemically. Even if the medicine is safe to put on the cat it might not be safe if the cat were to lick it and take it internally. Such medications would not be used on a cat or would only be used if an Elizabethan collar was used to prevent the cat licking the area to which the topical medication was applied. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elizabethan_collar Be aware that Elizabethan collars do not always prevent a cat from licking a wound. Sometimes they are able to reach the area even with the collar and sometimes they can get the collars off. Always check with a vet before putting any type of medicine on your cat that your vet has not given to you for that purpose. As to one particular medication - it is okay to put Neosporin on a cut or scratch as long as the cut or scratch is not a really deep one. Neosporin is safe but Neosporin Plus is not safe to use on your cat. However, you should always check with your vet when your cat is injured.

Try hiding it in your cat's food or treat if its a pill. If its a liquid, have one person hold onto the cat so it can't run away, and have the other person give the cat the medicine.
