Cat Inhaler Spacer,Specifically Designed for Cats,with Round Shape Silicone Mask,Feline Aerosol Chamber with Breathing Indicator – Include 2 Mask for Best Fit (for cat)

Great alternative to the other spacer the vet had recommended for my cat! Super easy to use/clean and 10/10 recommend this product if you need to give your fur baby an inhaler.

So at first, I didn't think this was going to be much better than just using a cardboard tube... but this is much better because of how it works. There are one-way valves controlling the flow of air, so your pet's breathing actually creates a pumping effect. You can actually see the valves working, and you can tell when your animal is pulling the medicine in. I fill the tube with a puff, then put it on the animal's face. My kitty will rip me to shreads if she decides to fight, but other than complaining, she showed no signs of discomfort or fight. So inhaled medicines are something you CAN give a feisty cat easily... good to know.

I ordered this for my asthmatic cat, Bill, and it came hermetically sealed. It had a slight odor that went away after a couple days and I talked to the seller about it and it’s all good. Anyway, I want to tell you how we were able to get him to use an inhaler that is absolutely life saving for him.I spent some time getting him used to the device. This is important to get the best results and there are many videos showing how “easy” this is but you really should get kitty used to it slowly. Here’s what I did: I assembled the device and sprayed the outer chamber (not the mask) with feliway spray (facial pheromones). I let that set to dry for a little bit then I showed it to him while petting him. I put some treats inside the mask and played “get the treat out of the mask” with him. Sometimes he’d try with his mouth and sometimes with his paws. I did that daily with him. I also petted him WITH the actual device when he’d let me. I left it laying on the floor in his food area (his favorite place to chill; your cat might be different). This way he knew it wasn’t a threat. Before putting any inhaler medicine in it, I’d practice gently putting it to his snoot and every time he’d let me do it, I’d reward him with a threat, nice pets, and “good boy!” which helped him get used to the idea.After several days of doing all these things without medication in the device, I felt we were ready to try. So, I prepared the device, checking that all pieces were tightly fitted. Then I primed the inhaler in free air first by giving it a pump. Then I inserted the inhaler in the back of the device and, keeping my hand gently over the mask to avoid causing any suction (which would release the medicine), I put one pump of medicine. I did it before putting over my cats snoot to avoid scaring him. Mind you, I was holding him, sitting on the floor, with my arm doing nice scritches and pets on his chest with his head pointed away from me so I could keep a good base to keep him from back in away or leaping forward. He’s 23 lbs so he’s big and strong. Anyway, once the mask was on his snoot, I watched the inside flaps for good breaths. The first time we did it, I had to give him a treat, apply the mask, give it 2-3 breaths and he’d move his head away, then repeat that twice. 7-10 breaths is ideal for his dose.After the third day, we stopped needing treats and he’s sitting still for me for 10 full deep breaths! I never thought we’d be able to do it because he’s so skittish. He’s living proof that it’s possible. I’m so thankful for this product and that my good boy breathing better.

I needed an inhaler spacer for my cat and my vet recommended a different brand, but it was out of stock. So I went with this one even though I was a little hesitant. It has worked great thus far and I have not had any problems. Surprisingly my cat has accepted it without any issues. I tried the different-sized nose covers and found one that fit him. It is soft and fits well on his face to form a seal. The instructions were easy to follow. My only small complaint is that when I go to shake the actual inhaler, the face cover pops off, so either I need to take the inhaler off every time to shake it, or I hold it together since I worry that taking the inhaler on and off will loosen the seal around it. Overall it is a great value and I am glad I did not get held up waiting on the other brand.

I was convinced that my cat would hate it. But once he got used to it, he lets me use it without a fight every day. Or he's just giving up and accepted that this is how it is now.Either way he gets his meds.Cats. 🤷‍♀️

This item came out of the package with an awful chemical smell. Attempted to remove the smell in various ways with no success. It was difficult to see the breath indicator and the masks were either too big or too small for our cat. He refused to use it and is usually pretty good with another brand.

I've had this inhaler-spacer for almost a year, and it still works perfectly! It was ~$30 cheaper than the AeroKat (~$70) at the time of purchase, and, having used both now, I honestly think it's just as good in terms of quality. There are a number of cheaper knock-offs available, but they aren't as well made as this one. It's easy to use and easy to clean. I'll be getting another when the one I'm currently using needs replacing!

The vet was going to charge us $100 for a similar product. Our cat tolerated this with the inhaler with no issues. It comes in 2 mouthpiece but the large probably will fit most cats. The only downside with this product is the flap on the valve does not move when our cat breathe so we couldn’t tell if he is really breathing in the medication from the chamber or not.
