 Bulls eye piller August 25, 2008

This product has made such a difference. We are several cats that need daily pills. Bulls eye piller is so easy to use and BAM it delivers the pill to the back of the throat. I have bought several for gifts. It is fabulous!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 Does not work with small pills at all July 8, 2008
For years I had been using the so-called Pet Piller to administer medications to my cats. Recently, one of my cats was diagnosed with a heart murmur and now is on half a beta blocker pill per day. Since this pill is small as it is, cutting it in half makes it very tiny, and the pet piller doesn't really work that well anymore. The pill either falls out again or gets stuck betwen the plunger and the rubberized tip. So based on a favorable review here, I ordered the Bull's Eye.
When I got it, I could tell immediately that the opening was way too big to be able to hold the half-size Atenolol. Trying it out confirmed it - the opening is about 4 times as big as the pill it needs to dispense.
I also found the handling of this piller tedious. The plunger comes out easily (and it has to, because the pill is loaded from the back end) and to actually administer the pill, the piller needs to be held in a certain way with the index finger resting between two "guides", which left me with a lot less flexibility than I needed to successfully use it with my cat (if the opening were small enough in the first place).
I would return it but return shipping would probably cost me more than I paid for it, so maybe I'll just pass it on to someone who needs to give huge pills to their animal.
Bullseye is right! September 5, 2007

For many years I used the rubber tipped piller for my cats. The cats I had were fairly co-operative, but I still had a problem because sometimes tiny pill fragments (ever try dividing a Norvasc into 1/4's?)were too small for the tip to hold securly. So my vet suggested loading the meds into empty #3 gelcaps. This worked well until my most recent cat came along. She's not a biter or scratcher, but she is a wriggler. It would often take me several attempts to get the med down her throat becase the pill is so easily knocked out of the piller before the plunger is pressed.
I saw the Bullseye design and was a little skeptical because of the wider width, but for a few bucks, I decided to try it anyway. Wow...what a difference! I haven't missed a shot yet. The big difference is that the pill stays in the syringe's shaft until the plunger expels it. I think the wide barrel is an advantage as well...it goes straight to the back of the animal's mouth without being bumped to the side like the more slender rubber-tipped version would do unless the cat stayed perfectly still. I continue to load the meds into gelcaps...they go down more smoothly and prevent the meds from being tasted.
I am always impressed by a product that offers an improvement over another...at a reasonable price to boot... as the Bull's Eye does.

Bull's Eye Pet Piller Is The Best October 4, 2006

I've had several cats. Unfortunately, cats get ill and need pills. I tried the other brand, the one with the blue tip that is sold everywhere. It doesn't work. This one works. It really pops the pill down the throat of your pet, which is what you want before they throw it up. They might throw it up later, but it did get down their throat with this device.
