Hello there! It sounds like you’re dealing with a bit of a stressful situation, so let’s sort it out together. Amitriptyline is a medication sometimes used in cats for issues like anxiety or certain types of pain. If your kitty got an extra dose, there are a few things we should watch for, just to be on the safe side.
Typical signs of an overdose might include sedation, confusion, difficulty standing, vomiting, or a rapid heart rate. If you notice any of these symptoms, it’s important to seek veterinary help immediately, as they could indicate your cat needs supportive care.
For now, keep an eye on your furry friend in a calm, quiet area to reduce stress. Ensure fresh water is available, as hydration is often helpful. Observing your cat closely over the next 24 hours is key. If they seem overly lethargic or any new symptoms develop, reaching out to a vet for more specific advice would be wise.
While keeping a watchful eye at home, it's a good idea to book a video consult with one of our vets on Dial A Vet. This will ensure tailored guidance for your pet's situation, helping you to feel more at ease. We’re here to help, every step of the way!

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
