I read this doesn't work well with SMALL pills. I am looking for something to dispense "Capstar" to 2 Feline 14 Year Old GROUCHY Sisters who just will not eat it in anything I've tried thus far. Anyone tried it with Capstar? Thanks for your help!!! {=^:^=}

The Pill Popper has a flexible tip that is made to hold various pill sizes so you only need one.

I’m giving my cat 5 mg of foloxitine will this hold that size pill? You say it’s adjustable how so?

Can this pill popper be taken apart to wash it? If so, how? Thanks!

Answer by ChewyJul 05, 2018
It's recommended to hand wash this pill popper.

I know to hand wash the pill popper but how do you take it apart to wash out the residue from the liquid used when giving the pill? Thanks.

Answer by ChewyJul 07, 2018
To clean the inside of the pill popper, you can fill the tube with warm water as you would get ready to use and squirt the water out. Repeat this until the tube is free of residue.

It's somewhat functional. It definitely does not have a very flexible tip. In fact, it's a very stiff flexibility. It doesn't hold all pills. It'll hold the very small pills, but bigger pills (which really aren't big at all!) just slip right out because the tip isn't flexible enough to accommodate them. If I had a dog bigger than the 20 lb version I currently have, this would not be helpful at all. It's barely helpful as it is..I really wish the tip was more flexible and soft. I had a different brand of pill gun years ago. It was SO MUCH BETTER than this garbage. I've had pills stick in this one, pills that pop right out after trying to wedge them in, and pills that broke trying to put them in. I don't recommend this pill gun at all.

Works great

Works great for giving my cat her prednisolone pills. Pill is always held firmly yet ejects properly. Just make sure you get it really far back in your cat’s mouth/throat

Works great for giving my cat her prednisolone pills. Pill is always held firmly yet ejects properly. Just make sure you get it really far back in your cat’s mouth/throat. Sometimes it helps to have a second person to hold the cat.

I really wanted to like this pill dispenser because the finger grip on the lever is one of the best designs I’ve seen, very comfortable and easy to hold. Unfortunately, the lever sticks so badly that it’s almost impossible to use quickly. Anyone who gives pills to cats knows you have to be fast, and the sticking mechanism slowed me down so much that my cat Banshee, managed to spit the pill out every time. I tried olive oil and Vaseline, but nothing fixed it. If this product had a smoother, non-sticking lever, it would be perfect. Until then, I can’t fully recommend it.

This works great! You can first suction up fluid (water) and then add the pill before popping it all in to your pets mouth. If the medicine needs some water to make it easier to swallow this is the 2 in 1 solution. Fast and easy.

If you’re needing to give your pet who refuses medicine a daily pill- buy this! I tried a terrible generic version of this from a big online retailer and promptly returned it because it didn’t work. This one works great, it holds the pill snug until you press the plunger to dispense the pill, and the part that holds the pill is firm but flexible to not injure the pets soft tissue inside the mouth. Our pet is getting a capsule and it’s perfect for this, but I imagine a tablet would also fit nicely and work just as well.

Easy to use

My old dog doesn’t like taking pills or drinking water and this helps with both. He’s not a fan, but I’m glad I can safely get his medicine in him.

Marmalade tolerates taking the quartered metronidazole fragment via the Lixit pill popper every evening since it is covered in wet cat food. The plunger is a bit hard to push, and the plunger is quite flimsy that pushes the pill out of the split restraint. But it does work and hasn’t failed after several weeks. We are controlling bacterial overgrowth in an end of life hospice type situation, and the Lixit is holding up. I’ve seen a sturdier design, but this is what is available that is working for us. As a plus, it is easy to clean.

This is amazing! I tried giving my senior cat by mixing them with Cheri puree (which she loves) and she gagged and hated that idea. I read the reviews on this and tried it. It was so easy and fast that she didn’t even realize what I was doing. I followed it with a churu puree treat and she was perfectly happy.
