Question

Is it safe to give xanax to a cat. Pet's info: Cat | American Shorthair | Male | unneutered | 8 lbs

Andrea M. Brodie, DVM · Accepted Answer

Xanax should not be given to a cat unless prescribed by a veterinarian. Xanax is an oral benzodiazepine that could cause liver failure. So a veterinarian would only prescribe it in an emergency situation or if no other benzodiazepine is available, Please do not give your cat Xanax.
