Crush tablets for animals in seconds and mix the powder straight into food. One pouch per animal keeps every animal's medication separate, prevents cross-contamination, and costs pennies per crush — trusted for over 30 years.

Built for animal care

Why veterinary teams choose the Silent Knight

Everything about the crusher is designed for busy animal-care settings: fast, quiet, hygienic and extremely low cost.

Crushes in seconds

Reduces tablets to a fine powder that mixes straight into wet food, a treat or water — ready for the animal in front of you.

Plan ahead, dose by dose

Crush a whole medication round ahead of time. Each pouch holds one animal's dose, clearly labelled and ready to use.

One pouch per animal

Every tablet is crushed inside its own pouch, so each animal's medication stays separate from the next.

Prevents cross-contamination

The powder never touches the machine — it stays in the pouch. Replace the pouch between animals and nothing is shared.

Whisper-quiet

The crusher is near-silent, so nervous patients in waiting rooms and anxious animals in kennels and catteries stay calm.

Extremely low cost

The machine is a one-time purchase and pouches cost pennies per crush — one of the lowest-cost ways to prepare animal medication.

Latex-free & pharmaceutical-grade

Pouches are latex-free and built to resist tearing, so medication stays contained from crush to administration.

Easy to clean

A quick wipe-down between uses keeps the machine ready — no disassembly needed for everyday cleaning.

Batch preparation

Plan a whole round ahead

In a busy clinic, boarding cattery or kennel, medication rounds are prepared before the animals are fed. The Silent Knight is built for that workflow: crush each animal's tablets into their own pouch in minutes, then line the doses up ready for the day.

  • Crush each animal's medication into its own pouch in advance
  • Label every pouch with the animal's name and the time of the dose
  • Store the prepared doses together and give them one by one — no mixing up, no re-crushing, no shared surfaces
How it works

Crushing for animals in four steps

The same simple routine for every animal, every dose.

01

Place the tablet in a pouch

Put the tablet inside a genuine Silent Knight pouch — one pouch per animal, every time.

02

Crush

Slide the pouch between the crusher plates and press the handle. The tablet breaks and grinds to a fine powder inside the pouch.

03

Mix into food

Open the pouch and mix the powder into the animal's wet food, a treat paste, or water — following the vet's instructions.

04

Label & store

Close the pouch, label it with the animal's name, and keep it separate until it's time to feed.

A note on crushing animal medication

Always check with the prescribing vet before crushing any medication. Some tablets are coated or extended-release and must not be crushed — the vet or pharmacist can confirm which tablets may safely be crushed and how the powder should be given. Never mix crushed medication into food for an animal on a special diet without the vet's guidance.
