Anti Anxiety Meds without vet
As title asks, how can I get my girl some anti anxiety meds without taking her to a vet? I tried that once, and they literally sent her back and said they couldn’t treat her because she freaked out the f out. I’ll be flying with her at the end of the month and I am DREADING it.
How can I get a script without taking her in?
Why is my cat licking/bitting her tail
Hey so recently my cat has been licking/biting her tail a lot and her fur started to come off. It looks almost bald now. I took her to the vet already and asked them why and he pretty much said he doesn’t know so that was very unhelpful. I’m going to try and take her to another vet this week but until then I might as well ask here.
She also doesn’t have any flees or ticks I tripped checked already and I gave her a bath.
Anything would help.
Thank you!
My cat hates his medicine
My cat Wesley was diagnosed with epilepsy about 6 months ago. He needs medication twice a day to stop his seizures. He’s always hated taking it. Wesley is a very sweet boy, but I’ve got a few nasty scars from some scratches he’s given me while trying to give him his medication.
The scratching doesn’t bother me too much. What really bothers me is how much Wesley seems to fear me now. I bottle fed him from when he was just a couple weeks old, and he’s always had such a strong bond with me. Now he wants nothing to do with me. If he sees me approaching around the times I usually give him his medicine, he’ll start hyperventilating and frothing at the mouth (checked with the vet - this is a symptom of stress, not a medical issue). It absolutely breaks my heart. This only started becoming an issue recently after the pharmacy that used to supply his medicine couldn’t do it anymore and we had to go to a different place. He seems to hate the new formula immensely.
I really need tips on how to make taking his medicine a better experience for him. The medication is liquid and is administered by mouth. I’ve tried mixing it with food, but he refuses to eat it. Drawing up some tasty liquid treats into the syringe along with the medicine doesn’t seem to help either. I just don’t know what to do for him.
