XPRS Nutra Size 5 Empty Capsules - 100 Count Clear Very Small Empty Gelatin Capsules - Pills DIY Capsule Filling - Fillable Pill Gel Caps for Do-It-Yourself Vitamin Supplements

I bought these as per the recommendation in someone's review using these for their cat and their pills. My cat got recently diagnosed with HCM with left atrial enlargement and needs long term blood thinners. They are notoriously bitter and she would vomit with every pill. This works perfectly and while they are obviously a little difficult to handle because of their small size, they work so well for my kitty and she hasn't had a vomiting episode since. I will 100% keep purchasing these for the near future for my baby. I highly recommend for those trying to give pills to their kitty! You can even fit multiple pills into it so you can just get it all done in one go.

These are great! I used them to put a powdered medicine inside for a chicken, so I could give to my hen more easily… mixing the pill in with treats was better than trying to shove meds down her beak with a syringe. They are small and hold together well; and small enough to not be worried they’d get stuck and block her throat. Did the job! Make sure you coat the pill afterwards with a bit of liquid before feeding, so your chicken doesn’t get it stuck her throat on the way down.

My kitties eat their medicine without any issue now :)

Work well to put medicine in. However, the last 2 packages have many half capsules so can't use. Missing the smaller piece of capsule. It also appears there's not 100 capsules in the package but I haven't counted

Our dog now takes his bitter tasting meds without issues. ❤️

Update: The slightly larger size 4 capsules are even better! They are a hair larger than the size 5s but still tiny enough for a cat's mouth. Still using these capsules and love them!!! Attention all cat parents! These capsules are a lifesaver! My very feisty 5-year-old cat, Jumpy, was just diagnosed with heart disease (cardiomyopathy) & needs to take 1/4 tab each of Atenolol & Plavix (clopidogrel) every day. Having 7 cats, I'm a great piller! But forcing quartered pills down Jumpy's neck was a nightmare & a half. I was literally scratched, bleeding, & exhausted from trying to give these 2 little pills. When I would finally get him to take the pill, he would foam at the mouth, gag, & then throw it up. I looked into getting the meds compounded but it would cost me $120/month which was way out of the budget. I started mixing the Atenolol with water in an eye dropper, but you can't do that with the Plavix (per the manufacturer, I think because it is such a bitter-tasting pill & the water would make the taste worse). Jumpy doesn't like wet food or cat treats so I couldn't disguise the pills there. Desperate for another solution, I looked into these capsules. Believe me when I say that they are truly my saving grace. I ordered the size 5 & they are the perfect size for my very petite cat. I was worried that the capsule would be too big for a tiny cat mouth, but I promise you that the size 5 will work just fine. I put the 1/4 tab of Atenolol in the capsule first (tiny pill). Then I add the Plavix. The 1/4 tab of Plavix is just barely too big to fit, so I cut the 1/4 in half (1/8) & then put them in the capsule & close it. I make 1-2 weeks of the capsules at a time so that I don't have to do it each day. Armed with my large plastic eye dropper filled with water, I get Jumpy, put the capsule in his mouth, & then shoot some water down his throat to wash it down. The capsule can get a little sticky when wet (use dry hands!), so I want to make sure that it goes all the way down his throat & he doesn't choke. He can't taste the bitterness of the pill thanks to the capsule, so there is no foaming, gagging, or throwing up. These capsules make it so easy! I even tried a plain capsule myself to make sure would be okay for my cat. There was no taste & it dissolved pretty quickly. PLEASE do yourself a favor & get these if you have a cat like mine who doesn't like pills!

Love the size but some of the shells came crushed and we're unusable

This is great for a tiny pill that tastes really bad. And my husband has difficulty swallowing it before it melts in his mouth. These are VERY small but perfect for his need. They actually snap together as well.

I struggled to feed my kitten her flu med, saw a reddit post that recommended using this to put the med into the capsule. It worked, covered the capsule with treats and my kitten inhaled the treat along with the capsule.

Muy fáciles de manipular. El tamaño es pequeñito y en mi caso, perfecto para lo que lo necesito.

I use these size 5 empty capsules to give my cat his heart medicine. The capsules are great quality and easy to use, but they’re too small to fit a 1/4 tablet unless it’s crushed. If you don’t want to crush the tablet, I recommend getting size 4 capsules instead.

I got sealed but missing capsules. You cannot complain or return. Not worth it
