Are these ok to give to cats? The ones for cats are quite a bit more per oz. which is ridiculous if they are essentially the same. Thanks!

I believe they are the same except the dog ones are bigger. They used to be a wonderful product that most cats ate readily. They changed the formula a few years ago, now most cats won't touch them! You are using such a small about for one little pill, it really doesn't matter if it is for a dog or cat. Good luck.

I am no expert answering things like this, but in my opinion, the purpose of the 'pill pocket' is to administer meds to your pet- dog or cat- and if the cat likesthe 'dog' one, or vice-versa, use the cheaper of the two- at least it still does the job! These treats are vet-approved, so I'm sure they are fine for any pet.

Our GREENIES® PILL POCKETS® Canine Treats are safe to use with cats. However, please make sure the PILL POCKETS with the medication inside are not to large for your cat to chew.

They make them specifically for cats too. They are so soft it's easy to break I prefer to buy the larger size because it's more economical. Then I just break them into two pieces.

Haven't purchased them from Amazon, just from our local store & at the store the expiration date is only 10 months from now (Feb 2015). They should be ok. If not email Friskies. My cat loves them & they do work.

If it is Cat's Pride, then jump on it and buy more than one. I buy mine online at Pet food direct and the best price I can get is 11.99. This is great litter. I can get it fragrance free and my cats love it. It's practically dust free, too.

You can put it in their water dish - some say their cats enjoyed the taste. Mine did not. We had some transferred aggression issues and I wanted to know if the cat was getting any. I gave it in a small syringe like you would medicine. Be aware, it does contain alcohol and some have concerned about that. My vet ok'd it's use and I did see a calming effect. Good luck!!

I'm sorry, I can't answer this question as I had them mailed directly to my daughter in WI. All I know is she says the cats love them.

Interesting. I bought a box of 10 bags cuz I couldn't find them anywhere. I just looked and the expiration dst is April 2015. So I guess they're ok. My cat just loves them I give her only 3 a day Ellen

I don't have the box right now, but it is the same stuff as the regular tablets. Just scaled for a cat or dog, 1 tablet for cat, 15 smaller tabs for people. I was counting out some small tablets for myself and my cat wandered over and gobbled one. I thought, well it's probably good for him, and bought some for him.

I just ordered a case - same exact kind as before (which my cats loved). My older cat won't touch this new batch. - My kitten ate some of it and has had the 'runs' for two days. Does anyone know - will Amazon take the unopened cans back?

I have two cats and they loved it straight away. I have had it about 6 weeks and it is getting a little "tired". I don't know if you can buy refills I doubt it. I have just ordered more so I can scatter them around the house.

Poor cat! :( these might be good if they work. Just make sure to please please please try them ahead of time. I don't think these will be anywhere as powerful as a sedative either way tho...

They are too big for cats. I have a cat who can be that way. I solved it by only feeding 1/4 cup of dry food at a time, 2-4 times a day. (About what you can pick up in your fist, I feed Science Diet, so this is a serving, anyway). Even if he eats quickly, it is seldom enough to make him puke. You can also put a billiard ball in the dish, and the cat will be slowed down by eating around it.

Hello, Lana - I don't have a dog but we do have 4 cats. I ordered the purple one (labeled for cats) for our cats. Their weights are 14 lbs., 12 lbs., 10 lbs. and 9 lbs. I can tell you that the purple one is pretty large (larger than I thought it would be). Based on my cats' weight, I'd suggest you purchase the one for cats. P.S. Our cats do use it and it has helped tremendously with eating too fast and getting chubby.

I really don't know. At the time our cat was very tiny and she had brought in the fleas. She was a drop-off so we got her something for baby kitten. Was really great on dogs and probably would be ok in smaller amounts for cats.

I would not give this to cats. it is based on body weight, half a tablet per 20 lbs. the labeling makes no mention of cats, only specifically for dogs. I would call your vet to get a recommendation for your cat.
