I have decent luck with any of the pheremone sprays, but you may also want to try Rescue Remedy. It is an oral administration - which Tango might object to - but you can drop the drops on her nose so she licks them off or put it on her shrimp treats. It works really well on some cats and dogs - and people - and does nothing on others.

They will probably need to sedate her to do a leg xray though. Poor girl. I hope she's just tweaked her shoulder join a bit.

Thanks ABG and NA!

Right now little Miss T is doing okay. She's a little gimpy, but not too bad.

I've ordered some stuff to see if it will calm her enough to get her in the carrier and to the vet.

Valarian, looks like it's not so much a calmer, but works like catnip!

When I was a kid we were going to move, and our cat didn't do well on car ride, so the vet gave them a seditive. She gave one to her. Then, not knowing that, my Dad gave her one. Then not knowing that, my mom wanted to be sure she'd be ok, and gave her another. She was later found attatched to a window screen, totally freaking out! I think she was on a real bad trip! She lived to be 22 years old, but I would still recomend something more mild, or at least the proper dosage! But I would have no idea what that is....

Good luck with kitty!
