Future Frontiers: Where Behavior and Science Are Going

• Situation-specific anxiolytics (e.g., trazodone, gabapentin) for noise phobias (fireworks, thunderstorms) and veterinary visits.
• Daily selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) for generalized anxiety, obsessive-compulsive disorders (tail chasing, flank sucking), and feline house-soiling.
