VetriScience Veterinary Strength Calm & Confident Chews - Stress Supplement for Cats - Supports Brain Function for Cats - with L-Theanine, Thiamine & More - 45 Count

I have an anxious male cat and these treats help him calm down at night. He happily eats them. I have tried other brands and these work the best for him.

If I could give zero stars, I would. I bought this since the vet recommended them. They're garbage. I have four cats and all of them refuse to try it. I dont blame them the treats stink.

My vet recommended these for a "highly anxious" cat. I was dubious because I've tried calming treats for him that he would barely sniff. He LOVED these. So evidently the taste worked for him. LOL I know these things are different for different pets, so I'll just share my guy's experience and describe the product. These treats have a strong odor -- but not unpleasant -- when opening the bag. He's a small cat and these treats are softer than dry food but not mushy and about half an inch large, so I break the treat into a few pieces he gobbles right down. The bag is a thick coated plastic outside and metallic inside with a zip seal, so they stay fresh. My other two cats also like these, and none of them have had any side effects at all (but I only give them when my anxious guy needs them, when he's acting aggressive toward the others). What's hilarious is that he doesn't get loopy or sleepy, but every time he has them he gets the zoomies for about 20 minutes, then falls asleep. After that, he is definitely calmer. No idea if the zoomies are a coincidence, but I've definitely noticed this trend. My other cats who have had these treats have not had that effect. If it's these treats doing it, t's so funny, I kind of wish they did. I'd call it a quality product and I definitely recommend. No guarantee that it would give anyone else the zoomies. My guy is just weird.

I have 4 cats, and only one of them eats it without any issues. The other three absolutely refuse it, no matter how I try to give it to them. However, for the one cat that does take it, the results are impressive! You can see a significant difference—it's working great for him. I just wish it was easier to administer to all of them.

Bringing home a new 3 year old cat had our already skittish 11 year old cat stressed to the max. Our vet suggested this and while not the cure all it has made the hissing and running leaps by the 3 year old less aggressive feeling for the 11 year old.

They were recommended by my vet but they had an awful smell and my cat would not eat them. They are very expensive and you cannot get a refund.

I bought this for my two cats. One being 5 years old, the other 6 months old. It does work to calm them down. But they don't like the taste, and I cannot blame them. The smell is really awful. When I first smelled it, I had to set it down and leave the room. I held my breath when handling it thereafter. Not to say the smell permeates. It won't stink up a whole room but you will smell it when getting close. Its not easy to administer as I've had to crush the treat basically into a powder and mix it into a separate, purèe-style treat in order to get them to eat it. The texture is comparable to a grainy Starburst. If you have picky cats, I'd recommend against this particular product. But if your cats aren't selective about what they eat then this will most likely work to calm them down. And it does work very well! I will probably buy this again but only along with another treat that I know my cats will find irresistible so I can mix it together.

Is really helping with taming work with my feral young cat from the shelter. But my cat won't eat the treat straight up anymore, and so I crumble and mix with wet cat food.
