Good Points: very easy to administer
Bad Points: they seem to have been discontinued!?!? I can't find them anywhere now! :(
General comments: After reading the other reviews I have to agree - these are the easiest cat wormers I have ever come across, in 20 years of owning cats!
I currently have 3 cats; Smudge who is the eldest at 12 years and the biggest, he weighs over a stone and a quarter, but the vet says there's not an ounce of fat on him, he's just HUGE (we have a dog-flap, he got stuck in the cat-flap when he was a year old!!), Dusty, who is 9 and really fussy -won't even eat Webox treats or Felix sticks or real chicken meat(!!) and Lawson is the baby at 2 years old.
I found Panacur Favourites about 2 years ago. They were very reasonably priced and looked like the answer to my prayers - after years or wrestling with a seething ball of teeth and claws everytime I needed to worm one of my little darlings, to give them worming treatment in a "treat" seemed like heaven. I must admit I was a little dubious, but ordered them anyway. It was the best thing I ever did! They actually DID view them as treats. (well, except Dusty, who sniffed it, looked at me with the "what the hell's this?" expression he does so well, then walked off - so I broke it up and stuck it in his dinner, then had to stand over him while he ate it, more to fend off Smudge who is always looking for seconds!) Both Lawson and Smudge ate them right out of my hand, and sniffed for more.
I ordered more the next day! Luckily I had ordered an ample supply to do me for the next few years, but I have just (literally) used the last ones and can't seem to find any more, on any website. All I can find is something that comes in syringes (because THAT's going to be easy to administer-NOT!!) or granules (and they'll all be eating each other's food again) or some wierd paste stuff (and just WHAT am I supposed to do with that!?!?)
Looks like it's back to the seething ball of teeth and claws I mentioned before! :o(
Does anyone know WHY these have been discontinued (when the dog ones are still made)?

My cat is a very fussy eater - she will only eat Asda's complete dry food and human-grade tuna flakes. In the past I have had a nightmare trying to worm her. I have always used Johnson's Twin Wormer tablets (the pink and fawn ones) on my cat, which are very effective, but I dreaded the actual administration. My cat would clamp her mouth shut and I'd have to pry it open, all the time while she's squirming and wriggling - I didn't have enough hands to keep her still. Then to actually put the table ...

As a cat breeder - I HATE it when it's time for worming...all those tablets, scratches & blood. Not any more, I've just discovered Panacur Treats. Whilst buying my usual Panacur, my vet nurse gave me a pack of Treats & said try these. I just laughed and said there is NO Way a cat is going to fall for those so she gave me the pack without charge. I have 4 newly wormed cats tonight within the space of 5 minutes....they loved them. I won't be using anything else from now on.

I've always had problems getting wormer down my cats, they know when there's anything there shouldn't be in their food, and I hate trying to put a tablet down their throat!
Panacure Favourite treats are the best wormer ever, my cats love them, worming them has never been easier. It gets a well worth 10/10 from me and my two cats!

Panacur Favourites for Cats
Worming cats is NOT the easiest of jobs - especially if you have LARGE cats. In recent years I have chosen to take the easier option and use granules which are mixed with the food however this can cause a few problems when, like me, you have multiple cats as one may ignore the food and another may help himself to several portions.
When I noticed that there was a new option on the market I was naturally very interested especially as it was Panacur which I have be ...
