Safe way to tranquilize my cat?

The vet techs can do the grooming for you pretty cheaply. Schedule an appointment.

Cat Tranquilizer

Can you just wait until she is very sleepy? When cats are sleepy, they let you pet them. If not, just invest in some packing tape. Keep it in your car, and use it on your clothing. Don't invite people over, agree to meet somewhere like a restaurant. Put dirty clothes in a closed hamper that she can't lay down on. In this case, it may be easier to do extra cleaning than try to groom an aggressive cat. Cats are very sensitive to medicines. For example, they are more sensitive to aspirin than dogs are and could die from aspirin. You have to ask permission from your vet to give the cat medicine otherwise you could be charged with animal cruelty. Sorry, but that is the law. It isn't worth the risk of getting charged nor worth the trouble of having an emergency vet visit. Best to leave crazy kitty alone. Cats can groom themselves. Maybe build an outdoor enclosure for her so the wind blows some hair away. If she is an evil kitty you may want to consider asking the vet for some anti-depressants for the kitty and maybe you could enjoy her company someday. So sorry you have a crazy cat. I know when I was little we had a cat like that and people say it is the owner's fault but we were always nice to the cat. It would attack you every time we opened the refrigerator. My cats are somewhat nicer than that cat. And the male is becoming less bitey as he ages.

Safe way to tranquilize my cat?

My cat does not groom herself well, and her hair is fine and gets everywhere. She does not like being brushed, no matter how gentle or how many treats she gets. She snarls, hisses, bites, and scratches. Is there a way I can knock her out, temporarily, so that we can brush her? I'm tempted to...

We talked to our vet about a sedative for Elliot so we could work on some very bad mats.

Today we picked up some Ace Tab 10mg to be given 2 hours before the grooming.

After two hours, we started to work on some mats. He was a bit more calm than without the med but still frisky. I'm going to talk to the vet about a larger dose.

We managed to get out a number of the worst mats, using a comb and an electric trimmers - my wife is a cosmetologist and we used one of her old trimmers, I'm talking about trimmers, not a man's razor of any sort.

Before she started with the comb and trimmers, I went after a very long and thick and solid mat on Elliott's side, near his tail - I used a pair of scissors.

Even though I thought I was being as carefully as was humanly possible to be, I managed to cut Elliot's skin. Not a deep cut, more like a nick that allowed the skin to open up and look like a piece about 1" x 1/2" in size had been cut off.

I had looked at the path the scissors were going to take through the mat and I was absolutely sure that I was at least 1/2" away from his skin, maybe even a bit more than that --- but I wasn't!

I cut his skin and I didn't notice it. My wife saw it before I did.

My wife took over and used a comb, with a bit more space between teeth than the normal comb, and the electric trimmers to cut at other mats - sort of slowly trim them down. I merely helped by holding Elliot relatively still.

From now on, she will do all the cutting of any cat fur around here.

Elliot's skin cut is not really bad and it does not seem to be bothering him and it didn't bleed at all - you can see two very small blood vessels that are totally intact and there was no blood anywhere around the 1" long by 1/2" wide area of exposed under skin.

It seems that Elliot's skin was quite taut there and that I didn't so much cut off some skin as I cut into the layer and it pulled apart, causing what looks like the removal of a piece of skin 1" by 1/2".

So - anyone who has ever thought of trimming, cutting, shaving - doing anything to your cats fur with anything that is sharp - DON'T DO IT!

Get someone with experience to do it.

Take your cat to a groomer. Many vet offices have groomers on staff. Explain how the cat does not like to be brushed. They will know what to do.

Cat's can NOT have benadryl!!! They are very sensitive to meds, take to your vet and ask for a sedative. I have a short haired male that i shave and it works out great.

Go the the veterinarian for this kind of help and don't force the cat to be brushed or clean the hard way your cat won't like that.Hope this helps.

Half a benadryl will kill the cat

Get a run of the mill grippy work glove (one with the rubber dots)or grooming glove. If you cat will let you pat her, a grooming glove or work glove will pick up the excess hair,.
