VetoquinolZylkene Calming Support Supplement for Small Dogs and Cats, Helps Promote Relaxation and Reduce External Stress Factors, Daily Behavioral Support and Anxiety Relief for Dogs and Cats, 75mg

I saw this product being recommended in forums dedicated to helping cat owners with their cat’s health issues. My cat has recently been super stressed, especially after just having an intense allergic reaction to fleas that we have been to the vet for that caused him to start over-grooming, now he does it to self-soothe for his stress. I don’t have the money after the first vet visit to see a behavioral specialist, so I’m doing whatever I can to distract him from excessive licking.I saw this supplement recommended for stress and anxiety and I decided to see if it’ll help after 8 weeks of use. The capsules come in the bottle as shown, they’re very easy to open and administer in wet food, I’ve even had him directly lick it off my hand.My cat has had a definite improvement in his mood, but still over-grooms if left unsupervised, not sure if this is from the medicine itself or from a combination of all I am doing for him. He does now get his full 12 hours of sleep like a normal adult cat should, instead of spending it self-soothing.

This product was recommended to us from the University of Georgia veterinarian hospital. We use it anytime our small Maltipoo gets bitten by a bug out in the yard. We only give her one capsule sprinkled over her favorite treat or food and it does the trick. It usually takes about 15 minutes for her full effect. It makes her very calm and eases any pain that she may have from a bug bite. It's super easy to use you just simply open the capsule and sprinkle the powder on your pet's favorite food so there's no trying to force a dog to take a pill which is always fun. Our dogs, thankfully, didn't have a reaction to it. No diarrhea or vomiting after taking this supplement. However, you need to talk to your vet before you use it for your dog.

It took a bit of time — like 3 weeks— for this to kick in to see some results. My cat has some anxiety and would over groom herself to the point where her front legs were bald. Now the hair is starting to grow back so I know it’s working. I will keep going with this medicine.

Update 2 months:This is absolutely necessary to keep the peace in my household. I have started to give her slightly more than 75mg, because it wasn’t working as well after a while but giving her 1 pill plus a little sprinkle from the second pill works great. She is just over the weight suggested for the 75mg.I tried to give it every other day but it just was not working as well as every day. We still smoosh it into a few pill pockets and make like a dough and then I pinch off treat size pieces and she loves it! She cries for it every morning and that is what she wants for breakfast lol. She’s now refusing wet food because this is what she wants.Update 7 days after initial review:I have been giving 1/2 of a 75mg capsule twice a day to my cat for 7 days straight now and she has not attacked my other cat in 7 days! We usually have stalking and attacking constantly so to go from constantly to none is very impressive! What I really like is that she still has her personality and does not seem drugged in any way. She just isn’t a psychopath stalker anymore 🤷🏻‍♀️. I plan on continuing the regimen and giving 1/2 to her twice a day. I started by sprinkling half a capsule on her wet food but she doesn’t eat all of it (she doesn’t mind the powder at all) so instead I have been buying pill pockets and I just knead it into the pill pocket like a dough and she eats it right up. This way she gets the full dose and I’m not wasting any.Initial review:My vet recommended that I try this before we put my cat on Prozac.I have two cats. My cats are not litter mates, they are both 6 years old and I adopted them one year apart. Pandora was the second cat I adopted and she has turned out to be a little psychopath. She constantly bullies and stalks and chases and attacks my other cat. It drives me insane and at times it’s extremely draining. I have tried very good quality lab tested CBD, and every kind of feliway spray and diffuser there is. Nothing works.I purchased this about 8 months ago and the first time I gave it to her she full on attacked my foot (not playing, it was very aggressive) and she has never done that before. So I have not given it to her again.Out of desperation, I am revisiting this option, after reading more about how to administer, I think she probably just needs more time to adjust.I sprinkled half of one capsule on top of about a tablespoon of wet food. She ate almost all of it right away.I purchased some pill pockets and I think I can smush the powder into them and feed it to her that way to ensure she gets as much of the product as possible without wasting any.She goes crazy for pill pockets! I’ll gladly update this review once we finish the bottle.Tonight was the first night we started it again and she walked around the house looking for something to get into for about 30 minutes (typical) and then laid down and went to sleep.

I guess these worked they take a long time though, and my dog still growled at people in the airport. She still snapped at the vet. I don’t know if if she needs to have a lot in her system. I don’t know, but they didn’t work well for me.

My cat doesn’t mind the taste of it mixed in with her food. I haven’t been using it very long yet so I’m not sure if it works but I’m hopeful.

Works really well with my cat during 5 hours flight!
