Greenies Pill Pockets Feline Salmon Flavor Cat Treats

I love these things so much -- but after many years of trial and error (and 11 years working in a cat shelter), here's the way I make them work for cats who aren't interested in treats: Break the Pill Pocket into half or quarters, depending on the size of your pill. Flatten out the piece of Pill Pocket and place it in your palm. Place the pill on top of it and then use fingers that haven't touched the pill to wrap the Pill Pocket around it, ensuring that you are completely covering the pill with just a thin layer of Pill Pocket. Place the coated pill(s) on top of your cat's canned food, ideally, rolling them around a little in any juice/gravy the food might have to further disguise them.

This works like a charm almost every time, and when it doesn't, the coating of Pill Pocket makes it super easy to pop the pill down the cat's throat. This stuff has made med time absolutely stress free in our house and my cat who is on meds is so much better off for it! … more

I thought that this was a brilliant idea and was amazed that no one thought of it before. The picture on the package in no way captures the reality of the product. The treats are very tiny and would require two in order to cover a pill the size of a regular aspirin. I was a little disappointed at how small they were but even worse my three cats, who all LOVE Greenies did not eat the treats, even on their own. My cats love salmon flavor anything so I was surprised that they didn't like the treats at all. Great concept, but they need to be larger and tasty in order for them to work. I'm really disappointed since everything else Greenies is so great.

I didn't have high hopes because I tried wrapping my cat's pills in cheese previously, and he would not accept them (despite being a cheese fiend!). But these pill pockets actually work for him!! So much more pleasant than forcing the pill

Been using pill pockets for years but not all cats like them. If they do like them and the pill is small then these are great. I would caution new users to avoid ordering them from Chewy if they are to be shipped with heavy items. I just ordered a package with a case of food and the pill pockets were smashed into one flat pancake. It still is very usable to break off a piece and wrap a pill in it so I didn’t send them back.

Great product! I have to give one of my cats prescription medicine twice a day. I would not be able to get her to swallow the pills without the pill pocket. Our other cat enjoys eating it (without the medicine) as a treat.

these come in 2 or 3 flavors. My cat loves the salmon flavor the best. She has to take meds 2x/day loves these...The price with Chewy is competitive but simply said they have larger stock on hand moreso than pet stores. My cat is on meds for lifetime so being able to buy multiple at a time is a timesavor.

I’ve been giving pills to cats for 40+ years - the old fashioned way: open mouth, insert pill, close mouth, stroke the throat to make sure it’s swallowed. The pill pockets are amazing! Wrap it around the pill and serve! No “forcing” - it only takes one person - and best of all: it’s a win-win for all!

We have a very anxious, semi-feral cat that is difficult to give medication to. We tried liquids and capsules and had no luck. After just a few days of "training," he now gobbles up every tablet thanks to these little treats. They are a little on the large side, so sometimes he has trouble picking them up in his mouth. But he is now having an easier time with practice, and patience on our end. I don't know how we ever medicated him without these!

My cat loves these.........I fill them and use them as the cherry on top of a Sundae, she thinks they are so delicious! The easiest way to get meds into a feline.

I'm using these for very picky dogs to take their denosyl - prescribed for one but I"m giving them to all 4. When I sit down to dose the dogs, all 4 dogs and all 3 cats come running to get their salmon pill pockets.
