He looks kinda down in the dumps. So I borrowed a few pills of Lexapro, and I was thinking of crushing them and putting them in his water fountain. How can I know if he's getting the right dosage? How can I know if he's gonna be drinking enough SSRI-laced water?

OP I cannot condone you abusing your cat in this way. With this said, you have opened my mind to a world in which Garfield is in love with pharmaceuticals instead of lasagna and this is really an untapped well of comedy if you think about it.

get a stick and tie some string to it, and tie a feather to the end of the string, OP. occasionally dangle it in front of the cat for a few minutes a day.

your cat will not be depressed anymore but if this is too much to ask then I don't know what to say.

You can have a pharmacy compound it in to a creme you can rub creepily into the skin of your cat's ears. And jack off with, idk, it's your life not mine.

He seems to be enjoying my hair tie, although I think that won't cure his depression on the long term. Perhaps an SNRI, such as Effexor, might be a good as an adjunct?

Don't do this unless a vet prescribed it. Not a good idea. Lexapro has a withdraw effect.

Split pills using a pill cutter.

Insert pills into empty capsules, you can buy them online.

Get behind the cat and put the capsule into the back of his mouth.

Hold his head up and stroke his neck to encourage him to swallow.

Use a disposable transfer pipette filled with water and squirt it into his mouth afterwards. Otherwise, the pill will spend too much time in the esophagus. It's been shown that pills can still be in the esophagus 40 minutes after dosing if water isn't used.

Again, don't give your cat meds unless prescribed by a vet.

Finally, if it's generic Lexapro, it's been shown to be less effective than name brand (Forest Labs) due to absorption issues from the cheaper excipients used. Unfortunately the FDA didn't reverse its generic approval of Lexapro like they did with Wellbutrin.

It's highly recommended to get cats in pairs for that exact reason. It's trickier once they're older but still usually doable.

Whatever, sounds like your cat is doomed to a life of forced medication instead of a pal, poor bastard.

I feel like doing metal gear solid takedowns on your cat all the time would definitely make it's anxiety worse.
