Vetoquinol Zylkene Behavior Support Capsules Small Dog & Cat Supplement, 75 mg

My kitty was an adult stray. We are currently transitioning from the street life to the home life. While I’m learning so much about boundaries the fact remains that I’d love to be able to cuddle my fur friend without his being mean/grumpy due to his uncertainty. I am willing to work on our kinship but I could not put off the vet visit any longer. I started “drugging” my new friend a week prior to our scheduled vet visit, as I was unsure of his reaction. By the 3rd night I was woken up by a POD CAT! The little guy was purring and demanding pets - I was thrilled and convinced my friend had been switched out with a new kitty, haha, by the weekend (day 5) the car ride was smooth and he was such a My kitty was an adult stray.

While it did not work for the Vet, for us, it definitely works overall and I’ve just ordered more. … more

I have four Persian kitties and one is a problem child. He is afraid of everyone except of me. He is very nervous and anxious in general. Also very high strung and high prey drive. Because of this, about two years ago he started to overgroom mostly his paws, until they were raw and bleeding, basically self mutilating. Just in case he recieves treatment for allergy but that didn’t solve the issue. I tried Zylkene for him but I didn’t see any change. I would say that Zylkene combined with Amitriptilyne, Hills c/d stress canned food does the trick, fingers crossed. But if you have a difficult case like I do, I would not rely on Zylkene exclusively. Even tried it on my other three kitties just to I have four Persian kitties and one is a problem child.

This takes the edge off my cat’s nerves for vets appointments and visitors. For her recent dental cleaning she had it sprinkled on her food for five days beforehand as recommended. She went into her carrier without much fuss and they noticed she wasn’t as nervous at the cat hospital. She’s very frightened there without the Zylkene. I prefer giving her this supplement to a drug and it really helps her. She’s less frightened of visitors with one capsule on her food the day they are expected. With coronavirus we haven’t had company for months so afraid she will be nervous again like she was when first adopted so will be relying on Zylkene again.

I tried this only for two days on my cat. My female is 18 pounds and a total scaredy cat. I gave her two capsules mixed in with a very small amount of juice from her wet food. She lapped it right up. I really did not see much a change in her at all. She didn't seem to get any more laid back and it seemed when it may have been wearing off, she ran around the house like a kitten with her behind on fire. It was nice to see that she was so happy, but not good for my intention of using it for travel. It didn't seem to work for my girl, but it may work for someone else's kitty with better results. I have tries a lot of calming treats and liquid with not real positive results. Sorry.

I took my feather-plucking cockatoo to the vet who recommended this after an unsatisfactory experience with haldol treatment. He said that, despite the fact that the label recommends it for dogs and cats, it's OK to give your bird to calm him down. The vet told me to dissolve the contents of a capsule in the bird's water dish. Can't tell if it works or not, but it was worth a try. He's still plucking!

I was introduced to this item by a friend. I have found it to be a very calming solution to my orange tabby when he gets too excited. I would highly suggest this supplement.

It works. I mix it in my cats food if something stressful is going on and it works. I have tried the composure pro chews and they work but only when he eats them and he’s a picky eater. This gets mixed in his wet food and after he’s full, he is super chilled out and wants purry cuddles and brushies. 10/10 will recommend.

My dog is a whiner. This product helps with the anxiety he may be experiencing. I like that it is an herbal supplement and has no prescription meds.

we give this to our Yorkie who, now that she is older, seems to be more anxious when we leave her alone . seems to be doing the trick! would definitely recommend this to others.

Stressed cat, was peeing out side of litter box. Now she is in the same room with the dog. This is huge progress. One capsule daily mixed with her food.
