Review on VetriScience Composure: Calming Formula for Cats, 30 Bite-Sized Chews by Kathy Sabo

Our cat was a wild rescue given to us as kittens. She has been indoors for the last 8 years and is sleeping, hiding and running most of the day when you want to cuddle, pet or just show a little affection. We usually see her twice a day when she wants to be fed. Usually an hour or two before the scheduled feeding time. She has had several major moves and suffers from terrible anxiety. As a kitten, she endured a 17-hour drive without eating or drinking anything, crying the whole time. It was heartbreaking. She hid for a week. Then a few years later we had a very short move and the stress made her even more nervous and less trusting. She was finally comfortable being away from home during the day, and it was around this time that we found out we were moving to Hawaii. Memories of her agonized crying throughout most of the 17 hour journey immediately flashed back and I spoke to the vet about our options for facilitating the flight. She would fly in the cabin, and I knew she might not be able to fly if she was in serious distress. Also, I didn't want to expose others to the terrifying sounds of those hoarse screams. The vet said we could use an antihistamine to make her sleepy as airlines don't allow animals to be drugged and seemingly pissed off. I really didn't like trying to put a human drug on our pet, but I've heard it's been quite successful for many on long-haul travel and flying. Well it didn't work. I've tried every veterinarian and internet recommendation to get our cat to take a small amount of antihistamines and all that came up was that our cat was under so much stress he was literally foaming at the mouth. Then she didn't trust me and if I fed her during meals she wouldn't eat. It was very sad and I felt terrible. That's when I started researching homeopathic remedies to take the stress out of the cat and make her less nervous and more confident. episodic appearance in a photo on social networks. We've had people stay for a week and never see them. We used to have her wear a bell collar so we'd know she was still around. I ended up adding these and a few other items to my shopping cart to make our furry cat's upcoming move more bearable. A few weeks before we moved I started feeding her the recommended 1-2 meals a day according to her daily feeding schedule. We noticed changes almost immediately. She no longer rushed around and tried to hide when someone noticed her furry presence, but slept in the midst of the whole family. Usually she only trusts my husband and I and our child are avoided. The vet said that on very busy days we could probably give her more than the recommended dose and she would be fine. She weighs over 17 pounds so I gave her two treats at a time before moving in, then one before boarding and one every 2-4 hours depending on how much she moves. She was easy to get out of the TSA carrier (with a leash and harness in case she panicked and ran away) and easy to put back in. She did not meow all day and moved several times during the flight. I gave her another treat before they took her to the pet quarantine station for a check up after getting off our plane and they said she was very calm. A little nervous but doesn't try to run away or hide. Important life events often cause stress in a pet. I wish I had found her much earlier in her life because I feel like she spent so much time hiding. It has given her new life and she is often seen snuggling up to our 6 year old or making sure she is in the right place so she can get all the pets! They saved our lives when we moved and we are still donating them today. her because she likes her and it makes her more relaxed. They make her a little sleepier than usual, but now she'd rather curl up than hide under the bed or in a dark corner out of sight. She no longer wears a collar as she is careful to be seen at all times of the day. I highly recommend these treats! Our cat hears the sound of the packaging and runs towards a treat, purring! They do smell a bit like vitamins, but our cat doesn't seem to mind at all. When we bought a big bag of goodies, some were harder than others and we just broke them into smaller pieces. They are slightly larger than regular cat treats. So if you have an older cat or a cat that has trouble chewing, I recommend breaking up the treats into smaller pieces and you can even try mixing them into wet food. It changed the dynamic. There is so much in our home that we can all offer lots of pets and love for our fluffy cat now that she is more relaxed. Be sure to try it! I know they may not be perfect for all cats, but they are at least worth trying!
