Se souvenir de moi 4 Conseils sur la façon de donner à votre chat des gouttes pour les yeux  Par danielle le 25 juin 2014 | 1Commentaires) Giving cats eye drops is most people’s idea of a nightmare. Our feline friends aren’t generally keen on being restrained, having their eyes prodded and something wet put close. What normally ensures is a squirming, clawing wrestling session, with kitty running away and hiding and the tube of ointment sprayed everywhere, with not a drop in your pet’s eyes.    Crédit d'image  All is not lost! We at Petbucket have some great suggestions to help you treat your cat’s eyes, beginning with:   1. Position Your Cat Correctly   The first step to successfully getting eye drops in your cat’s eye is to hold them so they can’t scamper away when they see the ointment coming – or dig their claws into your flesh!   It is best to put the cat on a table (or your lap if you trust them to keep their claws sheathed), wrapping your arm around their body to keep them still.   Crédit d'image Swaddling lui ou elle dans une serviette est un bon moyen aussi de les garder en sécurité et de prévenir les rayures pendant que vous déplacez le compte-gouttes redouté.   Make sure the space behind your cat is blocked so they cannot back out and flee that way.   If you can get someone else to help you hold your cat, especially at first, this can also make the process easier.     2. Correct Eye Drop Technique   Image source  With one hand, hold your cat’s head from under the jaw and use your thumb to push up towards the eye. This will create a little pouch in the lower eyelid, which can be seen above. Being careful not to touch your cat’s eye, place the tip of the applicator just above the bottom lid. Then squeeze the dropper quickly and gently (so it doesn’t squirt too much ointment). Your cat will blink, distributing the drop over the eye.   Once you are finished do not let go of your cat immediately. If you do it is likely they will immediately paw at their eyes, disturbing the liquid you just dropped in, meaning you have to begin again.   3. Use Rewards   Crédit d'image Your cat is not going to love getting eye drops, but you can make it less than awful by praising your cat throughout the experience and giving them a treat at the end. If they associate the dropper with some positives that balance the negatives, they may not be so unwilling when they see you coming to give them their medication.   4. Have Patience   Dans le cas des gouttes pour les yeux, ne vous attendez pas à ce que vos premiers essais se déroule bien. Il peut être une expérience nerveuse pour votre chat et difficile pour les propriétaires de tenir un chat et de manipuler le compte-gouttes à la fois. Mais il est important pour vous de persister comme si des gouttes pour les yeux ont été prescrits, ils sont importants pour la santé de votre chat.    Feature Image credit Commentaires)1 Prottoy25 Fév 2018Reply Are eye drops likely to cause nasal congestion in cats?
