Easy to administer
By Seniorqt on Jan 6, 2021
I have a feral cat that i needed to administer this med too. I only had one and half tablets to give him so i had to make sure i was putting it in his very favorite food. There was no way id be able to give him the tablet orally which would have been my preference. So i ground it up...mixed it first with the gravy from the can then mixed in the rest of the food. He ate it all. I was thankfull.

Few problems
By NGFBrooklyn on Mar 12, 2019
This package took forever to get to me. There must have been a delay with my vet providing the prescription and then the package was delay three times. Once for weather and twice because FedEx claimed we were not home (we were). Finally I received the medication but my cats refused to take it - I tried several tactics but ended up wasting almost every dose. Not really the fault of anyone in particular but was a frustrating process overall.
