Greenies Feline Pill Pockets for Cats Natural Soft Cat Treats, Salmon Flavor, 1.6 oz. Pouch (45 Treats)

My one cat goes nuts over this! It makes it so easy for me to give her her heart medicine. She literally begs for it every day. May not work on...smarter...cats though. My boyfriend's Russian Blue eats like a hungry hungry hippo but figured out I was hiding pills in the pockets and first spit it out and then refused to eat it. Works really well with smaller pills though.

I’m not going to lie, I love this product! I have two cats, one of them needed anxiety/calming medication because we had just moved and she started getting aggressive towards our other cat even though they’ve known eachother their whole life and had been fine before. I did not want to stick my hands in my cats mouth and I had trouble using the squeezable treats and crushing the pills in them because eventually she stopped eating them. This product made my life so much easier. I recommend rolling it into a ball, but the first time you give it to your cat make sure you give it to them without the medication-so they have an idea of what it taste like. I also recommend just dropping it in their food bowl when it’s around eating time. This way the pill is masked not only by the medication but the smells of their food around it. I swear it’s the first thing my cat eats over their food everytime because of the flavoring.

These worked very well for my elderly cat. In fact he looked forward to getting his special treat. You can put the pill in the pocket then push the doughy-but-meaty substance all around it and kind of “seal” it. Sadly my kitty Jeter died and didn’t get to take those pills long. But I’ll use them again for another pet. They’re really very clever. I was skeptical because he was picky, but they work!! Just push the goo all the way onto the pill once you’ve inserted it.Highly recommended !!

These are the only way I can get my Chihuahua to take her medicine. Highly recommended. However, if not packaged in a crush-proof box, they can be squashed and destroyed in the shipping process. Please ship in crush-proof packing!

My cat was given 6-12 months to live, best guess, by my Veterinarian together with an ultrasound specialist. Cat is now going on 2 years since initial diagnosis - with well sufficient joie de vivre for an elderly cat, thanks in part I'm sure to being a lucky outlier. But also due to the fact that he gets his heart and other meds every day, without fail, without fighting, without chucking it back up. I owe that accomplishment to this product. (And to the fact that he will scarf it right down - you can see from the reviews that some cats are picky and/or figure out the trick. Luck, again. Even on a day when he's being fussy about his required special diet, he'll gobble up the pocket.)And yes, I guess I could figure out how to firm up a play-dough consistency treat of my own in the age of 1 million internet DIY sites, but I already do a number of tedious things for Cat's well being and it's nice not to have to take on one more.Why four stars? (More like 4 1/2, but I don't easily give 5 stars.) Mostly because the packaging is faulty. The zip-lock seal *will* fail, either by no longer zipping or pulling away from the bag entirely, well before I've taken out the last pocket. Which would dry them out, except for the fact that I use one of those stick bag sealers (search "Stick bag sealer" on Amazon) as a failsafe. At the price, the bag should be well up to the task of being sealed and unsealed 85 times. That's what I think.But I'm so glad this product exists.

These are so delicious that my dogs want them for a treat. My cats and dogs know from the smell when I open the bag and come running when I say "come get your medicine". Only one dog is being medicated for allergies currently, but everyone wants a pill pocket, so they have become a treat. Compliance is so important. No more medication anxiety. They are perfectly sized and hold whatever pill I need to put inside.

I have four cats and the one who needed meds KNEW after ONE DA that these “treats” were rigged with her thyroid meds! She’s a sly one and subsequently REFUSED to eat any more of THESE particular treats (she gobbled up her other treats). However, my other cats chowed down on these. So, they must be tasty, but if you have a REALLY smart cat, they will figure out the trick. If you have a dumb cat, it’s all good! LOL!

These are great. So much easier to get my cat to take his pills when they are hidden in these pockets. However, cats are smart so I also put a crunchy cat treat on top
