Works great IF you can get cat to take it...

I am very glad I could get this product so quickly without a script However, it was a huge challenge getting my semi feral kitty to eat it. Just stuffed it down my tame cats throat but had to buy pill pockets and break it up very small and trick the other one! If you have finicky cat buy a flavored one if possible

Great med. Always works

I volunteer at a cat rescue facility and we tend to go through quite a few dewormers and Drontal works on all the major worms. Would be nice if they were a bit smaller and more palatable.

Seems to work

This product seems to be working as I do not see any evidence of worms. It is expensive but not as much as trying to wrestle a herd of cats to the vet then the expense of the vet. I do wish the pill was a bit smaller. I did have difficult getting the pills down a few of my kitties. Will keep this on hand, glad Chewy is carrying it.

Worms away!

Drontal Dewormer for Tapeworms, Roundworms, and Hookworms, for cats works well. As a consumer I can't speak for the technical aspects of Drontal, just the results. It works!

Really works - one and done

Expensive but effective. Rids kitties of tapeworm. Occasionally might need to repeat in a month, not usually. These days I crush and mask in food.

you do what you have to.

it is crazy that I had to spend 229.00 because you could not sell me the one pill for 5.00 dollars without a script. I needed to get rid of the worms from my poor cat. No vet would see him what is this world coming to next we wont be able to see a doctor when we are sick. The product worked but should never have to spend that much for it.
