What size is it. I'm giving my cat half a pill and the pill popper I have now is too big. The pill falls right out of the tip.

I think you may have more success with the Jorgensen pill popper selling for $3.99 in this case. I do love the popper you are interested in because it does have a slightly larger opening and expels the pill better than the Jorgensen piller in most cases. Half pills are problematic in all pullers.

Yes,I had the same problem.I literally had to push it in & hold it upright then force it down her throat to shoot it down.She spit it up a few times.I honestly have to say it was a STRUGGLE!My vets' assistant recommended this bacon putty,comes in a jar!I was willing to try anything!My cat really doesn't like meat,but she loves it.I wrap the putty around the pill,along with her cat treat!She loves it.No struggles,no trying to force it down!Been on this for a year.

The blue part has a slit in it that helps hold the pill. It is a great little invention but the last round of pills were too big and kept falling out. My cats got hold of it and hid it from me so I'm going to have to order another one. I'm not really sure how to describe the size other than saying most pills I have fit except the last round. It is very handy and well worth the $$. I hope I've help you a little. God bless!! :-)

this pill dispenser would be perfect for half a pill. I had to order another with a bigger tip to hold a whole pill for my dog. It is very slim and would work well for a fidgety cat.

This pill popper has the hole at the tip is about 3/16 in sizes. That to me is very small. I hope this helps.

Hi, We had the opposite problem from you in that the pill gun came with no directions, so we put the pill in from the plunger end. The pill has been stuck in the syringe since then, so it has not been used. Afterwards, we were told that you put the pill in from the opposite end. Inasmuch as you have the opposite problem, this gun may work for you. Good luck.

The capsule is 1/4 inch in diameter and 5/8 inch long, so no. Directions say to open capsule and sprinkle on the cat's food. Neither one of my cats would touch it.

It is the size of a regular capsule except it is a hard pill. About an inch long wider in the middle and tapered on both ends

Hi, I bought these originally for a cat with multiple problems requiring several small pills a day. I have many other splitters, this is the sharpest and the best. Try positioning the pills with tweezers, silicon sides hold the pill in place. It takes some practice, try to just push part way through and then snap the two pieces apart by hand, this avoids the crumbling. I put several pills into a crusher,after splitting them and then into a single capsule, this way I could give him three or four pills at a time. In short they will split Atenolol.

The largest size I have tried in it is 9x23mm, and it is tight. The next largest size is 8x21mm and it works just fine. The nine(9)mm wide pill will fit but I stopped putting it in the container because it was just too tight. The exit slot actually measures 9x22mm. I use a lot of dietary supplements and I find this product a blessing. Have been using them for many years and would not want to be without them. Hope this helps.

It is a rather large pill. The only way I can get it down is to put it in a bite of Banana or some other 'slippery' food. Then it goes right down. If I would say it is almost an inch long. Not a capsule. However, it works rather well for me.

The actual pill is 5/8" (1.5 cm) long and about half as wide. Hope that helps.

Yes. I have been able to cut a very small pill in half and then cut the halves into fourths, which were just a tad over 1/16th inch square. (The pill was for my kitty.) However, if the pill is somewhat crumbly, it might shatter at such a small size.

It is the size of a multi-vitamin/mineral, which is not huge but on the large size. I think you could easily break the pill in half.

They are capsules, so they are not tiny pills. Our cat could pick them out of pill pockets, so we just have to grab his scruff, pull back his head and pop a capsule into his throat. Then repeat. He used to fight, but now it's routine.

About 2 inches by 2 inches. Weight depends on how many and what size pills you carry in it. It is certainly not heavy and fits in a pocket conveniently. Not likely to fall out under normal circumstances. Excellent reminder.

The pill exact size should be available on the site. It is not the size of the pills you describe. Would imagine you could put it in apple sauce if too large. Good luck.

The "piller" that some refer to here looks like a syringe with a split nipple on the end. They are available at most pet supply stores. Withdraw the plunger slightly to prepare the piller for use. Place pill between the split ends of the nipple. Place your middle finger and thumb on either side of your cats mouth from the back of its head. Squeeze and your cat will open its mouth. Insert syringe and depress plunger to expel the pill in the back of the cat's throat. Cats will swallow anything in the back of their throat. My cat is sometimes able to get her tongue in the way and spits the pill out. Repeat the process until you are successful.

The pill is about 1cm or 1/2 inch. Shape is elongated rectangle. If I could post a picture I would. Hope this helps.

The pill is approximately one inch. They are quite large, but easy to swallow.

It has been a while, but as I recall, they were fairly large. My dog was taking them so I don't recall too much about the pill size. Sorry!

I would say about two weeks, there should be significant change for the better. The pill works very well quickly. May be even sooner. I use these pill constantly for my dog. Every day one pill in the morning before she eats. You must give it before eating. It will be hard to give to a cat, as cats are not easy when it comes to administering medications. The pill is blue and not very tiny either. Its the size of a baby aspirin. I place the pill on cream cheese and my dog takes it easy.
