Gretch298,

I sure sympathize with you. I own 2 cats and have spent much time agonizing over emergency visits for them. Have you ever heard of Thundershirt? Some of my dog owner friends swear by it in helping with anxiety. They like it better than drugging their dogs. It costs about $30. My vet here in Virginia sells it but I know you can go online at QVC and they have them, or try their website. Just a thought. Will be in TV come February and it is good to know of a good emergency vet service. Good Luck!
