My cat has anxiety in 2017

I think Molly needs to be medicated. She’s a two year old British shorthair and she is ADORABLE but also COMPLETELY STUPID. She is terrified of everything. She just went from fast asleep to ‘high alert OMG we are under attack everyone is going to die’ because I put my glass down on the table and it made a noise.

Can you give cats valium? Is this acceptable? I’m very concerned for her living in this constant state of panic. It must be exhausting.

I say, like I am not also constantly terrified. Ha.

But mostly it’s just the cat.
