There is a new drug out there, for helping to control emotional lability, but I don't know how effective it is, and it carries some risks. (cardiac QT), and is horribly expensive.

I'm giving this link because I did quite a bit of research and posting on it for them over there. It occurred to me that some here may be interested too.

And as far as the kitties here are concerned....Oreo thinks it is the end of the world..fireworks or thunder. She totally can't handle them.

Go figure that one out!
