Because many pets have trouble taking their pills, this tool makes it easy to administer their daily dose. With a unique design that can be used dry or wet, the soft and safe applicator tip is flexible enough to fit various pills sizes. For dry use, simply pull back the plunger, insert the pill, and press the plunger to eject the pill towards the back of their throat. For wet use, place the popper into milk or water with the plunger depressed, pull back the plunger, and then follow the same dry steps.

The Pill Popper doesn’t always work. About 40% of the times I’ve used it (I have two cats on Thyroid meds so they both get a pill 2 times a day). We all know how cats (and their humans) dislike this pill down the throat deal. I like the small size as my hands are small, that’s the reason I bought these (I bought two). Beyond the smaller size, that’s the only thing I like.
Wish I had read the reviews before I added this to my order. After nearly 35 years in veterinary medicine I have never seen anything quite as useless as this pill gun. Even giving a small pill to a small cat is impossible as the flimsy piece of plastic that is supposed to push the pill out just bends and goes past the pill.
so I put the pill in tried testing it first..Thought I was imagining that the pill was in wrong or didn't fit it well.. NOPE. It's just a worthless item. If you slam it the pill barely pops out.
I really needed a way to administer antibiotic capsules to my dog. All other methods have failed, marshmallows, canned food, cheese, etc. Due to neuropathy in my hands I can no longer just shove them down her throat. Got this pill popper today and was more than disappointed when the tip was too small for the antibiotics.
