I think it would be good to give it to her in the evening, with what you say is her "main meal".
You could start that tonight, but keep to the same schedule for giving it. (My own cat is on Pred for asthma/allergies, and we are slowly weaning her off of it and integrating in the Aerokat inhaler with Flovent in the hopes that she won't need the Pred. One thing our vet wanted to convey to us is to make sure we give the medicines at about the same time every day.)
P.S.- If you gave her 5 mg Pred this morning, and will give her another dose tonight, that's fine. But just note that it will make her blood sugar go a bit higher than usual for about a day or so... so you will likely see her hungrier in the morning.
