I have 2 cats who are deaf and scream when they are anxious. They are very sweet but I could not sleep for 2 years. It was becoming intolerable. I started them on Fluoxetine (Prozac) and the problem has been reduced by 80%, I get at least 6 hours of sleep before one of them yells, and usually 7 or 8. They are happier and so am I. There is stigma about putting pets on psychiatric drugs and some vets are hesitant but I highly recommend it.
