Hello there!
I understand you're curious about giving Gabapentin to your cat, which is a great question. While Gabapentin is used both in humans and animals, it's crucial to use it only under veterinary guidance for your feline friend. Cats often require different dosages due to their unique metabolisms, and a vet will determine the safe and effective amount for your kitty.
Using "human" Gabapentin without guidance might lead to issues like sedation, imbalance, or even more severe reactions. If your cat has been prescribed Gabapentin, ensure the dosage matches what your vet recommends. Always use a vet-approved version to prevent potential issues with drug additives that might not be safe for cats.
At home, you can offer a calm environment and gentle handling if your cat is in discomfort. Watch for signs like excessive drooling, wobbliness, or changes in appetite and behavior, which could indicate an adverse reaction.
If you notice any unusual symptoms or are unsure about anything, it's best to consult a vet right away. I'd recommend booking a video consult with one of our veterinarians at Dial A Vet to discuss the best care plan and avoid any risks to your pet's health. Your kitty's well-being is our top priority!

Real questions, vet reviewed answers and quality care.
It was so easy, I needed some eye drops for my dog and thinking about going to the vet on a weekend made me nervous about the cost involved. Dial A Vet was a much simpler, cheaper option with faster results. Within 10 minutes of the call, I had the medicine I needed for my dog without an expensive consultation.
A great fast efficient service with a qualified vet who was lovely and helpful. Thank you Samantha. I was able to sort my dog at 6pm on a Sunday night for $49 - amazing. Highly recommend.

What an amazing service, at my wits end as I knew my beautiful dog had an ear infection, could not get into the vet for 4 days. Never knew there was vets online until I googled. Within 15 minutes on a Sunday I was taking to beautiful Samantha who diagnosed and treated our Jasper. Only $49. She trusted that we knew our boy and gave us lots of advice. I will definitely be using dial a vet every time and sharing with all my friends and family. Absolutely fantastic kind caring service. 11/10
