The pill set out for both is 100 mg. That being said one is 13.5-14 pounds named Charlie (6.15-6.35 kg) the other is around 10 pounds named Braveheart (4.54 kg) Gabapentin is a very safe medication with very wide dosing range, she will be fine. 100 mg is a standard dose. It works very well but there are times where the cat can manage to fight of the sedation, hence why your vet probably wants you to dose at night and again before the vet visit. So through trial and error my old vet and I figured two doses of Gabapentin at 100mg/each so 200mg total, and 10mg of acepromezine. This round it was lowered to 75mg tabs of gabapentic so 150mg total, plus the same amount of ace. The second cat is extremely sweet and friendly to humans, but she attacks 2 of the other cats (one of them being the pee-cat, which probably adds to that cat’s stress). We have 5 cats total. Sweet cat only attacks the 2 cats who won’t attack her back bc they’re too scared. They just run. So my cat is 5 years old, very small, and 7 pounds. I adopted her from the shelter in October 2021 and she has been very small since. She is a very anxious cat and doesn’t like being touched all the time, and rarely allows anyone to pick her up. I brought her to the vet for a check up because she has a weird thing with drinking water constantly. Don't worry, there's always people like this in animal threads.
