"Nina has an overactive thyroid and has to take a pill in the morning and in the evening. She's a small, wily puss and the idea of getting those pills into her *twice a day* was daunting. My father uses these to help his diabetic cat take his pills. Nina loves them. She has no clue there's a pill in there. They're small enough that most times she doesn't even chew, she just swallows. These are an absolute MUST is your kids take pills. Also good for giving vitamins!"
