The Best Choice for Less Pet Stress
Zylkene is a pet parent's trusted solution for times when your cat or dog is feeling stressed. Furry family members are delicate creatures when faced with frightening, unsettling or unpredictable situations or changes in their environment. This innovative behavior supplement helps kitties and pups relax and increases their ability to cope with environmental upsets. A calmer pet leads to a less anxious pet parent and a more tranquil household.
Take Away the Furry Worries
Even the most easy-going pets can easily become a bundle of nerves in stressful situations. It's pretty common for both cats and dogs to respond to changes with anxiety, but Zylkene offers a way to balance your pet's mood and help them maintain a normal, relaxed disposition.
Some common causes of pet anxiety:
Travel
Loud Noises
New Baby
Fireworks
New Home
Vet Visit
Look for the Signs
Animals can't tell us when they feel upset, but they can show us in many different ways. Keep an eye on them and look for the telltale signs that they might be distressed. These include sleep pattern changes, more or less social interaction with people or animals, reduced play, hiding, weight loss or gain, withdrawal, barking and howling incessantly or more than usual, repetitive and excessive licking or over-grooming, house soiling, or trying to run away.
Just Mix and Serve for Gentle Relief
Zylkene is easy to administer to your pet whenever you're expecting an event like upcoming holidays, visits or vet trips. It comes in capsule form, and you can give it whole or break it open to mix with meals or treats. You only need to give it once daily, starting a few days before the event to bring calming relief.
A Safe Alternative to Sedatives
This supplement is ideal for pet parents who are looking for an alternative to overpowering medications. Zylkene won't cause sedation or drowsiness or cause your pets to be less alert. The main ingredient is a natural, bovine-sourced milk protein called casein. It's the same protein found in mother's milk that has a soothing effect on pups and kitties.

Didn’t Work For Us
By Becc on Jan 15, 2019
I was really hoping that this, in combination with Feliway and more engagement, would help calm my male tuxedo down a bit, reduce his bullying, and help his anxiety. He’s very high energy, and the extra toys and activities, as well as the Feliway plug-ins have helped, but I have seen no change when adding the Zylkene into the mix, he still bully’s his cat sister frequently. I had hoped to use this instead of Prozac, but I have given it two months, and with no behavioral change, we will have to go that route. That said, every cat is different, just because it didn’t work for Bernie, doesn’t mean it won’t work for a another cat. It was easy to take the capsule apart and mix the powder in with I was really hoping that this, in combination with Feliway and more engagement, would help calm my male tuxedo down a bit, reduce his bullying, and help his anxiety.

Cured over grooming
By Catzoo on Feb 9, 2019
This product is fantastic. I’ve had to shave my Ragdoll for 5 yrs due to over grooming. I didn’t like the medication the vet gave me because it changed his entire personality, he didn’t have much interest in anything. I found this and it has stopped the over grooming without changing his personality. His fur is growing out and he’s not pulling it out.

Scaredy cat
By bxrfan on Jan 20, 2019
this seems to help one of my cats who is having trouble adjusting to the two new additions...she tucks into her pate dinner with the Vetoquinol sprinkled on top...she was a feral that we brought in at about 5 months old and is now is about 5 years old...two of the other cats that she used to get along with have taken to chasing her when we brought in the two youngsters....but this seems to help...

Stress relief help
By Bill48 on Jan 7, 2019
We tried this Zylkene Behavior Support for our 16 pound Cairn terreir trying to relax her vs truck, doorbell and other disturbing noises as well as in car rides. Overall, we would observe she was a little less on edge or “alert” until the actual disturbance and the she was at 90% of her normal behavior. Bottom line this works better than treats with CBD but not as effective as prescription like acepromazene.

Zylkene Behavior Support Capsules
By Hazelmech on Feb 19, 2019
My 14 pound Papillon needs something to calm her down. My groomer recommended these. I tried one a day for 30 days but that didn’t seem to help. I’m now trying two per day and seem to be getting good results.

Probably works?
By EJHazel on Dec 29, 2018
We’ve been using this product for just over 2 weeks. I have not noticed much difference in my pup but we had a holiday visitor state that she is more quick to calm and responds better to commands than before. This same visitor had visited at Thanksgiving so she recently hung out with our pup before we tried meds. We will give it a whole month before we decide to continue this product or switch to something different.

Very helpful behavior aide
By Coco999 on Jan 31, 2019
Kitty came to me with PTSD so he has been a handful from day one. However, this med has helped calm him down and stabilize his sudden aggressive episodes. He is now pretty much the average unpredictable feline.

This does Work
By Rebel on Dec 5, 2018
Our recently adopted3 year old 7 lb chihuahua had not been socialized properly when he was a puppy. So every time someone came to our house he would become so unruly we would have to crate him in our bedroom and he would continue to bark!! After 2 does of this supplement we were able to start socializing him. After 2 weeks he now loves the grandkids. He is still wary when others enter our home but we are now able to calm him down easier.

Zyklene for cats
By corky on Jan 31, 2019
I sprinkled a tablet on my cats dry food and they did not eat for almost 2-3 days. I had to wash their bowls thoroughly, I will deal with my cats anxiety in another fashion.

Not for finicky cats
By 92656 on Nov 10, 2018
Of course my most picky cat is the one who needs this! He would not go near ANY food or even tuna that I tried to mix this in - he just sensed that the powder was in it and would not eat it. I'm slowly introducing Royal Canin "Calm" kibble to him and he kind of picks around that but at least eats some of it. It's been very challenging to get him to eat any kind of treat or supplement that is for anxiety. Have multiple Feliway devices plugged in and trying a calming collar. Hoping a combination of these items help!
