erm.. i would say no. cats will probably metabolise drugs differently to humans and even if the benadryl had the same effects in cats as it does humans - you would have no way of telling what dose would be fine and what dose would be lethal, as cats are a completely different size to us, so the amount you give them would be different anyway. why on earth you would want to give your cat benadryl is beyond me - but i would definitely suggest staying away from giving your cat ANYTHING BUT what your vet tells you is ok to give. You may kill your cat. Lots.

i wish people would not speak when they have no idea what they are talking about. ask your veterinarian. yes, you can give your cat or dog benedryl. a compounding pharmacy will even flavor it like fish, chicken, etc. to make administering it easier.

You shouldn't ever give animals medicines that are meant for humans. Sometimes vets will recommend certain types of human medicine for cats and dogs, but unless they tell you that it's safe to give the those medicines, don't do it. It's too risky and could cause much bigger problems for the cat.

Cats are not to be fed human food, so it could be very harmful to give a cat any kind of drug.

Can you give your cat Ambien?

Never, ever give a cat a human's medicine. Giving your cat a human's ambien pill could kill the cat. Cats are much smaller than humans and would need a much smaller dose of any medication, and you can't just guess the amount because that can still kill your cat. Ask a veterinarian.
