Lixit Oral Syringe and Medicine Dropper, 3ml/10ml

Nice quality
Nice items to use. It dont look cheap and it doesnt feel cheap. I recommend this item whenever you think you might need something like this.

Very useful.
Perfect for measuring nutrients.

Junk.
All the increments of measure have wiped off and it’s now useless. Lasted about 45 days. Now it’s basically trash.

I bought this set to help my poor rescue kitty who needs a lot of nutrition help right now. I haven’t used the syringe more than once or twice so far but what I like about it is that it’s an easy withdrawal of liquids and an easy plunging out. I’ve had a couple that were so tight that I had to apply a lot of pressure to the plunger trying to make it move and then it suddenly depressed all at once, not only all at once but all the contents all at once too. The only way I can think of to describe this is it was like stepping down on a banana, the peel splits apart and spews out the banana at great speeds across the living room. Yikes. Really scarey. I just knew it had perforated the poor cat’s throat. (Cat was fine.) This one performs like a syringe is supposed to, nice and easy, allowing for good control. No fire hose.I really like the dropper. This one I’ve used several times now. I’ve had other droppers that don’t seem to have a good seal between the bulb and the glass and it’ll be next week before you manage to get much at all into it. This dropper is sealed well. It intakes easily and will suck up more than a measly drop or two. The opening is small, however. I would have wished it to be a little bigger. Any little (and I mean around 2mm size) particles of food will clog up the opening. So puree your stuff well. (Suppose you could trim off the end a little so the hole would be larger; just make sure there are no rough edges left.) Oh, the dropper tube is on the larger side for a cat so extra caution here too to avoid choking the poor cat.I would recommend this set.

My chihuahua hates taking meds. He struggles, wriggles, and squirms at every single attempt. Both the syringe and dropper work great! I just hold his head and carefully insert it, quickly discharging the liquid contents and it’s over before he has any real chance to protest.My only problem is that the dropper is a bit hard to clean. Both the dropper and syringe need to be cleaned with a tiny bit of soap and rinsed for at least 30 seconds with warm water. However, the rubber orafice and plastic tube of the dropper *must* also be cleaned thoroughly using a Q-tip to remove the additional residue.I am overall pleased with my purchase and it works as described and expected.
