Never give your cat a sleeping pill or any other human medication without consulting a veterinarian.
Here's why:
* Dosage: Human medications are formulated for human bodies and their specific metabolisms. Giving a cat a human sleeping pill could lead to an overdose, even in tiny amounts.
* Ingredients: Many medications contain ingredients that are toxic to cats. Even a small dose could cause serious health problems.
* Side effects: Even if the medication doesn't cause immediate harm, it could interact with other medications your cat is taking or cause long-term health issues.
If you're concerned about your cat's sleep patterns, please contact your veterinarian. They can help you identify the cause of the sleep issue and recommend safe and effective treatments.
