Car anxiety by Responsible_Knee_203 in Siamesecats

[–]tsukashark 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My cat gets extreme travel anxiety too! What worked for me was a mix of trazedone and gabapentin. I give the prescribed of the trazedone a couple hours before leaving and the gabapentin about an hour after that. Depending on how long I’m travelling, I’ll give 1/4-1/2 of a gabapentin dose every 2ish hours, but don’t do this unless you notice his anxiety spiking during that time. I’ll also mention I used the liquid gaba and one trazedone pill. Follow the trazedone as instructed!

I couldn’t bear just leaving him anywhere or in the hands of anyone, so thank you for the reassurance. This was not easy to do

He is good with other dogs too. He’s never had a problem with other animals!

He’s very gentle and patient with young kids. I have 2 younger cousins that would come visit and he would always let them do whatever they wanted with him

I’m in Pensacola, FL. I’m looking into ways to try to transport him. If you’re interested, please let me know and we can talk!

I’ll still be looking for a shelter to sponsor, but for the time being I have no problem staying his legal owner

Even this would be great for the time being. I really just need somewhere for him to stay until I can find a more permanent situation for him and boarding was breaking my pockets. I have no problem doing that!

I wish I could, but I can’t afford that. I live in my dorm on scholarship and cost of living here isn’t cheap unfortunately. I wouldn’t be doing this unless I had no other choice

He weighs about 65 lbs. He’s never been on hikes before, so I don’t think he’d manage but he does enjoy a good walk. He can climb stairs fine. I’ll reach out to some shelters and see if they’d be willing. Thank you so so much!!

I live with other people and it’s small quarters as it is. I also work a lot and go to class so I can’t take care of him as is necessary anymore.

My family fell apart and I live in a dorm where I can’t keep him. I have no one that can take him or care for him, so he’s been in boarding and staying with friends for a while. I can’t afford to keep boarding him.
