13 lbs 6kg cat was prescribed 200mg gaba the night before and two hours before vet visit. Is this too much? (lemmy.selfhostcat.com)

They want this for anxiety for a cat visiting a vet?

That's ludicrous.

Never had a problem at another vet but he goes insane at this one. I brought all my cats though…

Starting at that dosage does seem a bit much, but that's exactly what it took to tame my own cat's vet anxiety. He was still hissy, but finally just barely manageable.
