My fluffy cat has mats by her back and tail. I think they will only get worse. She will not let me brush her for more than a few seconds. I was given Gabapentin in January for her to go on a plane. Can I give her some to relax her so that I can groom her?

Hello. This may work, all you can do is try. Use the dose recommended by your veterinarian, & if this does not do the trick, then consider having her professionally groomed or sedated & shaved by your veterinarian. Thanks for contacting PetCoach.
