Teach Any Cat AeroKat* - Asthma Inhaler Training with a Certified Behaviorist
After how much training days or weeks the cat accept to do it please ?
How can you keep depressing the inhaler, it costs a fortune. I first used this with my asthmatic cat years ago. We did it with two people and held her. After a few times she let me do it alone but she never put her face in it and she was ok with doing it that way. Now I have a cat with toxo pneumonia and possible asthma. I do not have time to do extensive training. He needs the meds asap.
Hi there - we understand how frightening a sick cat can be. We encourage you to continue to use the AeroKat* Chamber to give your cat medications as it delivers more medication to your cats' lungs. Most cats learn to use the spacer in 4-6 days with training. Wishing your little one a speedy recovery.
This is slightly delusional. This would take a long time for a cat to be trained on this. By the time you order this, the cat needs his doses ASAP. No time for training. It’s a struggle every time.
Hello - We know it's hard to believe but most cats learn to do this in just 4-6 days (check out the data to support this statement on our website). We completely agree that getting your cat to take the medication so they can feel better is critical; we hope you will trust the thousands of cat parents that use the AeroKat* when their cat is needing their emergency inhaler or for treatment of a flare-up, and try it out. Wishing your little one a quick recovery!
@trudellanimalhealth what do you advise for cats that are still coughing during the training period, since presumably they can't be medicated until they are completely comfortable with the mask and chamber?
Our cat is taking hormonal pills when she's not yet on the inhaler and simultaneously with the inhaler (in lower doses) while getting used to using it
Buenas tardes, y donde se consigue el producto para el tratamiento??
Hola! Buenas tardes, hace poco a mi gatito se lo recetó su médica veterinaria, luego con la receta lo compré en la farmacia, deberías llevar a tu michi para que te aconseje que producto usar, saludo!
The videos are very helpful. I finally got her to inhale the medication today. I have to say she doesn’t voluntarily put her face in the mask. I have to hold it there. Also, my cat is overweight so I can’t give her that many treats. Now I have to work on her weight.
This is an excellent video. I had been trying to train my cat for a while now. I’m going to use your tips. Thank you!
este video es una birria, no hay que presionar el inhalador cuando la mascarilla está en el gato, se asustará. Además hay que entrenar progresivamente al gato para que no rechace la mascarilla. Por favor vean otros videos donde se explica todo adecuadamente.
Click with what?
c'est dommage que l'accent de la personne rende difficile toute la compréhension de ce qui est dit...
Can you train an older cat that’s never had training like this before? My cat is 5 years old.
Gracias
Hello Trudell Animal Health Owner, I saw your RUclips channel, you upload very nice videos on your channel. I have watched all the videos and noticed that all the videos are beautiful. But there is a problem with your channel! Your main problems are video views not coming in and your videos not reaching your target audience! Because, your channel does not have SEO! If you don't fix the problem, your video won't get video views organically because the RUclips algorithm works on keywords, but your channel doesn't have any keywords! These problems can be solved by SEO techniques. Every video will rank on RUclips if you do SEO perfectly. Doing SEO will help your video reach the right people and increase views. Remember, SEO is not a single task, it is multifaceted. If you want to do SEO on your channel, I can help. I am an SEO expert. Thank you, have a nice day
Which is the training mask. The large or small mask?
Hi @richardwebb3013 - thank you for reaching out! The two masks are designed for different-sized cats. The mask that fits your cat's face the best should be used for the medication, while the mask that doesn't fit as well can be used as the training mask. This way, you can ensure your cat receives the most effective treatment. If you have any more questions, feel free to ask!
Ads in the instructions for your product? Low class
get an ad blocker lots are free for basic use like blocking ads in youtube videos.
I don’t see anything wrong with that. People may be interested in it. At least it’s relevant, unlike the ads I get.
This looks like it would take months, if it's even possible after my first couple attempts with my cat freaking out. Good luck if your cat needs this NOW, like mine.
Genial bien explicado, muchas gracias
About how long should the introduction process take? My vet said he needs to start the medication straight away.
Great but my cat can barely breathe so She’s not that relaxed I don’t know how to do this please help I will never give her up she’s my heart
You might need to have someone else hold her while you apply the mask to her face for the prescribed duration so she gets the medication she needs. I think these are good tips and tricks but it does look like it would take a long time to train a cat to be comfortable with it.
He sounds cute..
Thank you so much for these videos. It really takes alot of patience but it's so worth it. Never force upon it doesn't end well and makes the training take even longer. So keep having alot of patience and listen to your cat. Your bond will grow stronger. If you do force It'll end up with you having a bad relationship with your cat and getting them to use the inhalor will become a daily struggle. (From my own experience)
Great video - thank you. What time frame are we looking at here? A week? Days? Thanks!
Great instructions, How long does it usually take to teach all of these steps to the cat? My cat is really a sensitive soul :)
We have a cat who has multiple severe asthma attacks every day. There wouldn't be enough time to train her to use this comfortably. I never used an inhaler on her and am wanting her vet to prescribe one. Her attacks get so severe where she collapses on her side, gasping for air with her mouth wide open. I don't know why her vet isn't recommending a rescue inhaler?! I'm thinking of taking her to a different vet. She NEEDS this. They're only treating her with prednisone...which they say she has to be on indefinitely. She's been on it for a little while now without much improvement. It's uncontrolled and I KNOW more can be done for her. 😥
Hi! My cat also has asthma maybe not as bad as yours. He is learning to use the inhaler now. Immediately find another vet! Prolonged oral steroid treatment will harm her liver and can cause diabetes. Small dosage corticosteroids and bronchodilators thru an inhaler has much less side effects. Did they do bronchoscopy with bacterial/fungal culture and cytology yet?
@@bmanooo Sadly, not too long after I wrote this, she had a massive attack that killed her. She had an appointment to see another vet that morning, but died some time the night prior. Everything you wrote, perhaps if she would've been treated properly the first time around, she may still be here. I don't know. It's really upsetting. Thank you for replying. I honestly forgot that I even commented on this video.
@@thatgirl634my condolences to your passing… may your cat find rest. ❤
My cat HATESSSSS his inhaler and fights me with the strength of 10 cats every time I try. His fighting just worsens his asthma attack. I'll try these games, but I'm very doubtful he'll ever willingly put his face in this thing.
I hope it's helped some. It can take a bit more time to unlearn fear responses that are already there, but it's not impossible. We took in a (then pregnant) stray kitty and she's still a bit skittish/fearful, especially if we're handling her for meds. I'm hoping we can get her comfortable with treatment for her sake and mine. I can mostly handle a few scratches, but it hurts to see her scared and the sound of her having an attack is triggering for my anxiety and some old trauma. It's a bad time for everyone. I may train her kitten on the mask too, so she can see that it's safe. He's about 5 months old, still pretty curious, and might also be at increased risk of developing asthma since his mom has it.
I think i damaged my cat by forcing and i am just beside myself. She needs this so bad and every time i show this to her little by little she freaks out. Then she leaves to hide for hours. I don't know what to do at this point.
Any luck on a solution? When cats have already built a negative association with something, it often takes more time and smaller steps because they're not starting from scratch. It's not impossible to do, but it does take more time and some cats never fully settle in. I have infinite respect for people that do long-term and fospice care for ferals. If you're still struggling, maybe there's a group like that in your community that could give you some more direct guidance on working with fearful cats.
My dog has been diagnosed with chronic bronchitis but also has a non cancer mass on her lung. Her cough is a high pitched dry cough followed by a gag. I am using flixotide inhaler with the aerodawg and is a little better but still gets rapid breathing with flare ups. Has anyone else used flixotide
Any updates?
Yikes… this is what breeding does to you.
its a disease…
I'm worried about the scent training with my cat. She's sixteen and typically rejects any scents she thinks is sketchy. I have to use specifically odorless/tasteless meds and supplements in her food because if she smells something out of the ordinary, she walks away and refuses to eat it. She accepted the hissing noise very quickly, as she's a fairly calm cat that's not easily upset with random sounds, and she's comfortably eating treats out of the wide base already. Not too interested in the next step (the giant flower pot) though, would it help to cut larger holes in it even though it's not one of the smaller objects? It's a bit hard to juggle holding treats, holding the training object, and holding a clicker all at the same time. Can the training still work if I just use an affirmation word instead of the clicker?
I know you commented this at least a year ago, but they showed in a different video that you could use an affirmation word or just a click with your mouth, as long as it was consistent.
How long does the mask need to stay on the cat’s face? How many breaths? I’ve been training my cat to lick Churus from inside the mask. Can they lick the mask and still inhale the medication?
if the valve is moving it means the cat is breathing so I guess he is breathing it, about breaths I heard is 10 to 15, 10 breath is enough but 15 is better if you can. if you teached him to lick from inside the mask, now when he doesn't use the mask, put it on his face without using it, and after, give him churus to lick directly from the package, so he will associate the use of the mask with the treat, and not from licking it,but only give him the treat when he doesn't lick it
Badly bread, overweight, long nails. Says it all🙁
My cat uses the flovent inhaler. My vet says I can give him an albuterop inhaler when he is having an asthma attack. My question is, do I have to clean the aerokat in between each use? If I use the aerokat primarily for flovent, but he has an asthma attack, can I use the albuterol in the same chamber without having to clean the chamber?
Hi. Both medications can be used with the AeroKat* chamber without cleaning between each use. We recommend cleaning the device weekly.
@@TrudellAnimalHealth Thank you!
Poor baby, I hope this little pug is feeling better!
Question 1 - recognizing that each cat is individual, for a resistant cat, typically how long do you work at building confidence? Question 2 - in the meantime are they going without their medication or should you still try and administer while continuing to help them get comfortable? Thanks!
I decided to go the hard way, there is no time, nor am I such magician to do trainings like this, so I just force it…
@@Ceki4 Same! Not as much of a struggle as I anticipated - as long as I have someone to help me.
Оставьте кто нибудь комментарий. У моего кота астма, врач рекомендует купить аэрокэт. Удобно им пользоваться или что то другое надо...
Impossible, but still it’s something after all, I just force it
It will take time and effort in the beginning, but this is the best long-term solution. I've been training my cat for about a year now, and she has worked her way up to about 4-5 breaths on her own (without forcing). Until she can do longer, we are also still giving her some oral steroids (prednisolone) daily.
So stupid remove leash
Muy bueno, gracias.
For play motivated kittens and cats, you can have playtime after introducing the mask
Hola, yo tengo una aerocamara con doble válvula, y al hacer los puff a mi gatito esa pequeña lámina no se mueve cuando respira, estará pasando el fármaco igual, si me puede explicar por favor, saludos!!
Poor little thing.
Thank you for this because my cat HATES the chamber but is vey food motivated. I just don’t hav a clicker or things like that. She puts her face in cups for water so I’m thinking she doesn’t mind small spaces for her face, but to replace water with treats and see what happens.
What can you replace the sound "marker" with if your cat is deaf?
Hi Alex. Yes - there are lots of options for marking behaviour during training (as we would with an audible marker, like a clicker) with cats that are deaf. Below are a few examples from the trainer and behaviourist that you could consider for conditioning, with the understanding that: 1. your timing would need to be as precise in pinpointing the behaviour you are working on as it would be with a click sound; and, 2. nothing you use should startle or be aversive to the cat. Alternatives to audible markers include: • a "thumbs up" signal, instead of the click (the cat needs to be looking to see this), • or a gentle & specific touch on the cat's body (only if they were comfortable with this), • or a tap on a wooden floor near the cat to create a quick/gentle vibration (only if they were comfortable with this), • using a pen flashlight (torch) to create a brief flash (never shone at the cat, of course) to serve as a signal. The following resources may be helpful: • Experienced Deaf Dog Trainer | Expert Dog Behavior Advice (positiveanimalwellness.com/deaf-dogs/) • Clicker Training deaf cats - Deaf Darlings (deafdarlings.dk/en/clicker-training-deaf-cats/) Please let me know how it goes.
has he been cured ? I lost my pet and he had similar symptoms.
Hi Srigopal. I am sorry for your loss. Chronic bronchitis is a lifetime condition that requires ongoing management to help keep the airways clear to limit symptoms and hopefully slow disease progression. After diagnosis, this particular furry friend was prescribed daily steroid inhaler treatments designed to reduce inflammation in the lungs that causes the coughing symptoms. I am told our friend has been doing well and coughing less.
@@TrudellAnimalHealth my dog was diagnosed with bronchitis and was prescribed doxyclycline & predisoline. She finished doxy yesterday and has one more day of the prednisone. Is bronchitis a life long thing? Will she cough for the rest of her life? When her meds finish. What should I do? Please answer
@@whi1870 Bronchitis can be acute (short-term) in response to bacterial or viral infections for example, or chronic (long-term). Dogs with chronic bronchitis will have regular coughing and inflammation in their airways that could lead to disease progression when untreated. I recommend talking with your vet to understand the type of bronchitis that your dog was diagnosed with and whether ongoing therapy is required. Best wishes. Please see the following article for more information: www.trudellanimalhealth.com/learn/further-reading/canine-bronchitis-symptoms-causes-treatments
Thank you so much for making these videos. How many 1-minute training sessions do you recommend per day?
Hi Emily. The number of sessions will depend on the cat, the trainer, what’s going on around them, the cat’s emotional state, health… In general, the recommendation is “little and often.” For example, 1-3 minutes daily, or even 2-3 times daily - as long as the cat is doing well and genuinely calm, happy, and relaxed. Less is more and we need to work with the cat in front of us, which may be very different from how people perceive training to be (e.g. with dogs, who are bred to interact & work with humans for protracted periods). Cats are self-sufficient, selectively social, and do cognitive/high energy activities for short periods often. So, we need to be careful to “think cat”, beware of applying pressure, ensure the cat is engaged and enjoying the process, stop before we need to, and allow the cat plenty of down time (which also helps with internalization of the training). While studies show many cats can learn to use an inhaler in 6 days, these techniques and strategies can help teach any cat to use an AeroKat* Chamber.
