In the nature there are no perpetual motion machines or ideally debugged systems, the failures never giving. And the cat's organism sometimes appears under the influence of external and internal pathogenic factors which result is a disease. Intake of the anesthetizing medicines can improve health of the pet suffering from a serious chronic illness, or a trauma. However anesthetic is not as simple to give to a cat as it seems.
Instruction
1. The way which you will use to give to a cat anesthetic depends on a form of production of medicine. If it is about tablets and capsules, there is an important requirement - the cat has to be in a sitting position, with well recorded by the head and forepaws. Otherwise there is a probability to do much harm to an animal. Put a pill in an open mouth of a cat as it is possible closer to a language root. Accurately cramp the lower jaw from top and you hold the head raised, stroking the pet's neck. Wait until the cat makes the swallowing movement. Surely check whether there was no tablet in a mouth - among cats there are real sly fellows capable to cheat the owner.
2. It is the simplest to hide a tablet in favourite delicacy of the pet, for example, paste or fragrant sausage. The piece has to be small, on one teeth. Do not forget that cats well catch a smell of drugs therefore the treat is recommended to warm up a little. The smell of food will amplify, and the patient having a tail without problems will swallow medicine.
3. When the tasty bait does not work, it is possible to pound a tablet and to add powder to damp cat food. With contents of the capsule similar actions are made. Keep in mind that some tablets cannot be crushed and mixed with food as they can lose medicinal properties. Previously consult with the veterinarian.
4. Liquid medicine in the appointed dose is gathered in the syringe without needle. Wrap a cat in a blanket and open its mouth, having placed big and index fingers of one hand behind canines, in the place of a convergence of jaws. Slowly fill in syringe contents in a side part of a throat. You do not hurry as the cat can choke and otrygnut medicine. Surely make pauses that he managed to swallow. At the end of the procedure record a mouth of a cat in the closed state and wait 3-4 minutes.
5. If to your cat the anesthetizing medicine in the form of injections is appointed, it is better to trust in the expert. Nevertheless, all have an opportunity to go to clinic or to invite the veterinarian home several times a day not. You can learn to do subcutaneous injections in animal withers independently. It is desirable that the pet during a prick lay on a firm surface. Sometimes the place where the needle was entered, slightly swells up a little, the small cone appears. You should not worry, it is normal reaction of a cat's organism. In 2-3 days this phenomenon will pass without trace.
