As you all probably recall Diego is on Prozac because last March when the other building in my condo complex burned down our fire alarms went off for about 5 hours. He's been a wreck since then and Cali has suffered for it. He's now on the highest dose of Prozac a cat can have and he's doing ok. HOWEVER.....on February 10 the building is doing fire alarm testing starting at 8:30 am. Now if I didn't have to be there to let dude in to ensure the alarm is making noise in my unit I'd simply take both kitties for a car ride till the testing is over. I called the vet to see if they could provide sedation for him and they will, but he will still hear the noise. Not like I can stuff his cat ears full of cotton. They also said that I could leave him with them until the testing is over. But since he was so stressed (hissing, growling, etc.) at our visit just a couple of weeks ago for shots I'm not sure that is the best plan either. If I could count on good weather I'd put him in his kennel on the deck so at least he'd be away from the source of the racket, but considering it's very cold here now I can't count on that as an option.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
