I think that the dose Patches is on for anxiety is lower than an anti-itch
dose. It is a very low dose.
What you say worries me. But with her FeLV, I also worry that stress can
trigger her virus and cause her to get lymphoma, which has happened with my
other cats, and the benadryl reduces her stress so much. So I am afraid to stop
using it at this point.

My holistic vet is concerned that antihistamines have been linked to cancer......we were talking about an entirely different topic. Dixie was scratching for totally unknown reasons and was about as raw as she could get. We were using chlortrimiton to break the cycle of scratch, itch, scratch some more etc. (My regular vet recommended that over the benadryl.) Having one cat with cancer I took the holistic vet's words to heart....use it sparingly. I have to talk to her more about it but I am careful now with the cats and with myself. |
