Cats in these videos are almost always peaceful little angels. If my cat was like that I wouldn't need to watch a video on giving him medicine in the first place. People who watch these videos have hellbeasts that would murder 7 people if they even tried to put them in a burrito.

Rn thats me honestly my cat (Chen Cha) has been really on edge, normally she isn’t like this but we brought in a new cat (Gibbson) and ever since then she has been hissing and scratching and about 5 days ago they had a cat fight. Took them both to the vet, gibbson is okay, but chen cha got her by gibbson and it was bleeding. Called the vet they said only had appointment available on saturday at 2pm. I called friday to see if they can fit her in but they said no, and her injury was getting smelly. I went in saturday and they told me “Next time it happens bring her in earlier and not wait so long”…… I didn’t say anything but I was stressed and overwhelmed, even now bc she has an infection in her ears, she needs to take in liquid medicine for the injury and her infection and she wont let me give her medicine, we have tried to scruff her, wrap her in a towel, hold her still- idk what to do anymore at this point. Like I said she has never been like this, she normally likes to cuddle and lets me pet her and lets me give her kisses 🥹

[@misscrankypantss]

@@jaeee0393 please look up vids and info on how to introduce new cats. Don't just throw the new cat in there and hope for the best... As for meds, you can just rather hide it in wet food (I cram it into the chunks) or get pill pockets from Greenies. Peanut butter is also great for hiding pills and cause it's sticky the pill is less likely to be spat out.

alot less resistance? That is no resistance, this is like every other cat video that says they have a rough cat, but the cat just sits there and takes it. If all my cat did was a sad face, I'd consider it to be a success. I love how every clip shrugs off the fact you can just carry your cat and put her over the towel and wrap it around her.

[@misscrankypantss]

@@irismoon8435 Just rather hide the pills in some wet food or pill pockets. I don't have pill pockets where I'm from so I make a mixture of wet food (the pate kind) and peanut butter to wrap around the pill. The PB works great cause it's sticky so chances are the pill will get licked up together. I also asked if some pills could be in liquid form so I could easily just add it to some gravy.

I live alone & this video was super helpful. The first couple attempts were a struggle but then I started giving him his favourite treat while wrapped up. It’s been 2 weeks & I think it’s his favourite part of the day now. Doesn’t flinch at at all with the eye ointment & even likes to chill in the burrito for a little while afterwards. Thanks for sharing!

[@casfoster2536]

For context, my cat is a very skittish rescue that hates being held & is terrified of everyone but me. I had to give him an eye medicine last year as well & it turned into a 2 person job that traumatised all 3 of us.

[@anitawilson6302]

My circumstances are similar to yours. I just brought home a rescued kitten with some issues that require eye ointment and oral antibiotic--and VERY long claws. I am hopeful that this new approach will diminish the need for bandaids.

[@christinabullen2021]

Hot tip: use an old, large towel. First time my son and I did the burrito wrap which had to be done at speed on our feisty cat, he kicked so hard with his back legs that he managed to rip a big tear in the towel and reverse out and through my son’s lap. My son is an adult btw. 😂

[@emmersonzant530]

with my cat, i would sit and hold him in my lap while he’s on his back and have someone keep his head still. then i would open his mouth by pinching the sides of his mouth by his back teeth until his mouth opens enough and, quickly, put the syringe into his throat and give the meds. this has also worked for me when giving him pills. with pills, i close his mouth for a few seconds to make sure that he’s swallowed it. when i get his mouth open enough she usually does that cat thing and they try to get their head away from you. that’s why i have someone hold the back of his head so he can’t move as much. the beeg boi is in my profile pic

My cat isn't just going to sit there while I wrap the towel around him as soon as he sees me coming he runs and I have to try to pin him down somewhere with one hand and then try to wrap the towel with the other hand. It's definitely not as easy as you had it!

[@ksajak]

So your cat always runs from you? You never get to pet your cat? It really is as simple as grabbing your cat by the scruff and putting them onto the towel while keeping them by the scruff. Once you get them by the scruff they're easy work. Just put them on the towel and wrap them up. I've done it with the friendliest cats in the world to the worst cats from hell and I haven't gotten scratched or bitten yet! I should knock on wood now but yea. While your cat is eating just get him/her by the scruff. You win

[@freewaybaby]

Great video, but my problem is partially ME because I'm "older' (ok...old) and if I get down on the floor to capture them in the towel, THAT'S where I'm gonna' be until the cat has been freed from the towel 'cause some of us older folks have knee problems that make it nearly impossible to get up from the floor. I have an old feral boy (with s TINY tame streak) who needs to go to the vet for a prednisone injection, but since the LAST time he was coerced into a cage to take him, he's gotten "wiser" and he's NOT going into the cage for his food. Been trying for over 2 weeks at this point! He's NOT gettin' on a raised surface if a human is around EITHER! But, your tip about getting them used to the towel under them is a VERY good one... I'm sure it will come in handy with my inside cats when it's vet time; they'll be easier since they all get on the bed! LOL

Hi is your cat a Bombay? We have our second Bombay by chance second one started coming to us outside and she's ours now. Our 1st one of 17 years passed away a month before. So God had his hand in it. Our vet confirmed she's definitely full blood Bombay! She looks just like your kitty.

[@blblawhoo4338]

my cat has a wound thats bleeding again, basically we wrap it , spray it, sometimes after spraying it would bleed then it wouldn't. He is on a appetite stim and we gave him a little more to help him eat more, he hasn't been eating last few days much, we would lower the appete stim back and he doeskin eat but seems the bleeding on the wound stops. I think for some reason I think above the wound there is a area that is hard like blood pooling into the wound or something.

[@charlotteking8123]

Thanks for the details. It's been many years since I've had a really difficult cat and a cat demon next door who comes and attacks my cats in broad daylight. Hence the need to medicate. She's otherwise a very sweet and retiring kitty but with meds, it's scratch, claw, hiss and OW! BTW for judgy people I was outside with the cats; it still happened. *1/2 hour later* tried a trial run with 7 month-old very rambunctious male (neutered) kitten. Even with scruffing (he got insulted) I could NOT secure him in the towel. Those back legs were like clawed kicking stilts, no way I could wrap him. Good thing he's not the one I'll be medicating.

[@steve-uq5tl]

Another good way is the crush up the pill and put it in baby food, cats seem to love baby food ! You could even do that with liquid medicine but you may have to give it twice because if you put too much medicine in the cat will be able to Distinguish the taste.

Wow never thought of that I’ve already become a professional cat grappler. My female cat who used to be feral really hates when I give her worming medicine for tapeworm she even yells at me while I’m doing it. We make up with a nice bowl of freeze dries. Had to learn she keeps the pill right in the back of her mouth and would spit it out so I have the check her after and make sure she swallows.

[@Matty06001]

We used to do this to our cats all the time, but we just basically put them in the middle, with one edge under their neck and grabbed the two ends of the towel with one hand over their back, and made sure to block them from backing up with our body, so they couldn't go forward or backward. Usually worked well. One does need to practice, but it's a great technique.

I feel so stressed every time, because he looks so uncomfortable and flinches when I put the syringe in his mouth. But, having him on the floor, placing him on the towel, and using your wrapping method really kept my cat still! One thing I’ll add too is to squirt the meds quickly into the back of your cat’s throat...I had to learn this hard way after attempting to give him a slow dribble (because I was afraid of choking him) but I think that’s much worse than a quick squirt, because then they taste the meds longer and get progressively more disgruntled and vicious.

@@labraham1025 There's no easy solution, but you don't want to startle the cat or try to trick them. It only makes things worse later on because they are smart. Best thing to do is get your cat used to being held or touched. Then you place them on the towel. Grip them firmly with one hand and use the other to drape the ends of the towel over them. The cats head should be facing away from you. Using one hand you pull on the cats neck from the front toward you so they can't move forward or backwards.

Your Video was fantastic. Thank You!

I have a very resistance cat. Even when I touch his ears he just "closes" them and it is more difficult to clean them. I can't even hold to him as I have no help. Any advice?

Great Advice ! Thanks

Wow, that looks like a lot of work. My cat had to take pills for a week because of an infection. At another time, I had to put some ointment in her eyes. I regularly trimmed her claws. I never had to restrain her like that. She just let me do what had to be done. I guess I'm lucky.

Yep! Some kitties are very relaxed, and it's super nice!ll

It’s probably not a cat 😂
