    Helping Cat gain weight

    Long story short, Monet was diagnosed with Hyperthyroid. He's nearly 15 years old. The vet put him on medication and his recent blood results shows he's in range. However, he lost some weight in the past 3 weeks. he's now 8.5 lbs. Always been a lean cat. The vet thinks maybe (something) valve...

    Keep water from freezing

    maybe something like this? Amazon.com gotta make sure it's safe for whatever bowl you are using. There's also regular chicken waterers that's heated that might work too?

    Gabapentin for cat?

    he’s back to himself this morning. I hated seeing him so not himself, stumbling into his water dish and sleeping weird. Thankfully it wore off! Sorry for being paranoid, first time giving him this drug and it scared me.

    Gabapentin for cat?

    9 hours after giving him the pill, I don’t like how he’s acting. How long does it take to wear off?

    Gabapentin for cat?

    he ate the pill without issue (of course he'd eat anything i put before him). The vet said 2 hours before visit, I wasn't comfortable with stepping out of their advice especially when I don't know how the meds would affect him. If there's a next time, I will do it sooner as well as two dosages...

    Gabapentin for cat?

    Just an update. I gave it to him 2 hours before the appt. as directed. It did nothing. He still yowled, howled, growled, snarled and fought the vet. But thankfully, they managed with a team of three, to get him in one of those cat onsies thingy to get blood. Guess next time I would have to...

    Sudden Agression

    I put a little baby powder on both cats, behind their ears and down their backs when they come back from the vet. that way they smell alike and it helps neutralize smell from the vet. Helps my one cat from attacking the other. Most of the time at least

    Gabapentin for cat?

    I considered it, but he'd hiss and growl at anyone that tries to touch him in his own home too. I feel like at a vet he'd have less places to hide and can't run

    Gabapentin for cat?

    that is scary! The doctor said he would be out of it for a few hours. I’m glad she’s alright after that! I’m taking him in for a checkup since it’s been about 5 years since his last checkup. I’m worried he might have hyperthyroidism with how recently he’s constantly looking and begging for...

    Gabapentin for cat?

    he would eat anything I put before him. I have no worries about giving him the full dose. Did it help with your cats pain and stress after surgery?

    Gabapentin for cat?

    Thank you for the responses! Makes me feel better knowing it’s safe and hopefully effective enough to calm him down

    Gabapentin for cat?

    Hi all! Been a while. Hope everyone is doing well! Monet is terrible at the vets. He turns aggressive and no vet can handle him. Took me a few vets to find one that was willing to prescribe Gabapentin to help his anxiety and sedate him a bit before the visit. No one wants to sedate him without...
