Vets say gaba but they mean gabapentin which is different than the herbal supplement GABA. What’s even more reckless is that both are also for humans. They really shouldn’t slang and cause confusion, it’s completely unprofessional. My cat only ever got 100mg but they prescribed once the night before and once 3 hrs before.
I think the vets rely on it too much. But the good thing is that it won’t kill your cat. i felt bad giving mine as much as they prescribed unless it was going to be surgery. Then again they had marked my cat as feisty.
It’s more for the vet staff than your cat. But it tranquilizes them down so they don’t freak out too but still it’s more to make their job easier. IMO if they can’t handle a cat without it being sedated then they shouldn’t be vets but pretty much all vets require it. Like how they put you in a wheel chair in the ER even though you can walk. I was trying to find a vet that didn’t require it but didn’t have luck
