Jeter is 12, weighs about 14 lbs., and from age 1 started being very aggressive when brought to the vet or even to the pet store from which we adopted him just to get nails clipped. I managed to train him to let me clip nails but it’s still difficult mostly because I stopped doing it frequently enough - my bad. We had vets come to the house - still horrible - took two people to restrain him, using big leather gloves, for shots and clipping and exam and he hissed and growled and howled throughout. He attacks his carrier if he’s brought to the vet. He’s on record as aggressively attacking staff - one cat urgent care couldn’t even handle him long enough to sedate him to do an exam. New vet gave me gabapentin - two tabs at night before a visit and then again two next day before the appointment. Haven’t tried that yet. Have you had success with the med?
