HomeoPet Feline Anxiety Relief

Works really well. Used when moved house and aggressive cat attacking our cat causing anxiety. Works really well when he’s had a recent attack to help him calm and become less anxious and works like magic as if the aggressive “black cat” had never even attacked

I got this to address the stress issues between two rescue kitties, who are more feral than any other cats I've ever had. They were rescued from litters by feral cats. One growls and hisses at anything she doesn't like--especially the other cat-- who is passive-aggresive and sprays on the furniture when he's stressed by her aggression. But for all their feral independence, both cats are profoundly attached to us, and get very disturbed when either of us is gone. Let's not even get into how jealous the she-cat gets when we pay attention to her nemesis, or even mention his name. Yes, she knows her name AND his name. She has the largest, most expressive personality I have ever seen in a cat, and I've had cats for 45 years. Her nemesis is sweet and mellow. Both are extremely communicative and responsive to us, coming when I call (not hubby, only me) and both only want to be touched and petted on their terms, and those are very limited, but essential when they demand it. I had to reduce the stress that arises from their proximity to each other. So, I proceeded to give these drops to them twice a day, first at the level recommended, then gradually reducing to about 3-4 drops once a day. The hissing kitty also gets to wear a pheromone collar to calm her even more. Hubby insisted he didn't notice a difference in the cats' behavior. He agreed the the spraying seemed to slow down/stop, but he was unwilling to attribute that to this product. He claimed to see no change in she-cat's aggression, hissing and growling. Then, I stopped giving this to the kitties, and after about two weeks, I noticed new spray marks and increased hissing and growling. Hubby was very upset. . .you don't give up a cat who is that attached to you without causing severe trauma. He also admitted noticing increased aggression, hissing and growling in the she-cat. I mentioned to him that I stopped giving this to the cats a few weeks ago and he was convinced. And relieved. This was a problem that could be managed without getting rid of either of the cats. The effects of this product are very subtle, as is the case with any herbal remedy. One should not necessarily expect see dramatic changes overnight. However, giving this product, along with providing all reassurance, attention and affection the cat needs on his/her terms, can provide sufficient results to curb the problems being expressed by the cats's stress. In my situation, we cannot eliminate the stressors because that means eliminating one of the cats, so I have to find a way to help the kitties cope in less offensive ways. Using this product, along with her pheromone collar and a Feliway diffuser in the living room allows both cats to be in the living room with us at the same time without being overly stressed. Okay, not near each other, but both being in the same room to be near us is an improvement from each staking out opposite ends of the house and staying isolated. Like I said, the effects are subtle. So subtle that my husband was skeptical until I stopped using it. Now he's convinced. It works well enough to calm the aggression somewhat and stop the spraying, and that makes it worth the investment.

Good

I usually don’t write reviews but I have been more stressed than my cat because of my cat’s anxiety as he hurt himself and had an abscess and was driving me nuts to go to the vet. Finally bought this and it works like magic! Has calming effect.. my cat is so chilled and relaxed even after the vet visit ☺️ happy cat, happy crazy cat lady 😂

We introduced an 8 week old female kitten into the home and already had a 5 year old female (spade). To say she was unhappy about her presence is an understatement. And no, we didn't do the proper introduction period for them either...because we didn't know! So that obviously didn't help matters. The older cat got progressively more territorial and would bully the little one, charging her and trying to "chase her off" while hissing and swatting at her. The little one, from a prior home with other cats and suspected resource guarding with the litter box, had a hard time adjusting and would often pee outside of the box (yes, I had her checked for a UTI and it was negative. Vet suspects it's the stress of being in a new home with a territorial cat and she already had issues with litter boxes. She also is a 'stress pee' kitty. When something scares or upsets her, she pees in inappropriate places). Needless to say, I was DESPERATE for something that would help ease both of their stress, and after much research and a chat with the vet, we decided to give these a chance. We didn't want to just jump into kitty Prozac etc. Well...after just a couple of doses, the older cat started to chill out and even let the little one nap nearby! She also no longer stares her down and charges her to try and run her off. If the little one gets too annoying and in her business, she will swat and hiss at her, but that's normal because she's teaching her boundaries (I honestly would get annoyed too with how much she follows her around lol). But she's no longer treating her like a threat, so that's a HUGE improvement. And the little one is starting to get her stress pee under control and going in the litter box! I honestly can't give these drops enough stars. Especially because they're natural! We just give the doses to them in unsalted tuna water or on a treat. They don't seem to be able to smell or taste it. Also, don't be afraid to play around with the dosing. Start low, but your kitty might need a bit higher of a dose to start seeing the positive effects. I definitely wouldn't give up after just a dose or two if you're not seeing any changes. Herbal remedies can also take a bit of time! It all depends on the kitty. Hope this helps someone!
