Calming Supplement for Dogs & Cats with Probiotics, L-Theanine, and Ashwagandha - Supports Anxiety Relief - Promotes Relaxation - 60 Scoops

Very effective for calming my cat

Cats liked taste, but not large enough amount (powder) to last a month in this house. Efficacy barely visible (bought it as an anti-inflammatory and anti-mucous producing supplement).

We have 2 cats. Cat #1 startles very easily and bullies cat #2. Cat #2 started peeing on the floor just outside the litter box about 2 years ago when a dog came to visit for the weekend and ever since, has done that every few days. (does not have a UTI.) I gave them both P** N** of Ver***t calming chew treats for a couple of years and saw no effect. I also used phermone diffusers- all different brands - for many years, and they did not work AT ALL for ANY cat i've ever had. I started both our cats on this Fera supplement a little over 1 month ago. I give them each 1/2 scoop twice/day, sprinkled into and stirred well into their dry cat food. I just realized this week that cat #1 hasn't been startled for a while! And cat #2 has gone 6 days w/o peeing on the floor! I can't believe it. I didn't think any calming agent would ever work. We had already been using the Fera probiotic powder, which worked very well (they rarely throw up since starting on it). i give the probiotic once in the AM and the calming powder twice per day, AM & PM. At first, I tried just sprinkling both powders on top, but the cats didn't like that at all. So I mixed the calming powder into the food, and sprinkled the probiotic powder on top, and they don't seem to notice it and eat all their food. The calming powder sticks nicely to the food. I usually stir it for about 10 seconds to make sure it is well mixed and doesn't stay on the bowl. However, if you stir the probiotic powder into the (dry) food, it just falls to the bottom of the bowl and stays there instead of sticking to the food. So it really has to be sprinkled on top. I have used many probiotics for various cats over the years and they have always worked. But this is the first time in many years of cat ownership that I've found a calming agent that actually does anything. I'm thrilled that it seems to be making a difference for our cats. Now I just hope they don't raise the price!

I only gave it three stars simply because my cats would not consume anything I put the powder in.

I was so excited to write this review. It was perfect that they came up with a calming supplement as my dog, Bumblebee, has a newly developed anxiety associated with loud noises. perfect opportunity to try it on him. I wanted to use their newest product on my dog a few times before writing this. I’ve been a fan of the Fera line and continue to have a great experience with their products for my dogs! It calmed Bumblebee down and seemed to reduce his anxiety. The powder was easy to sprinkle in his food and it seemed palatable (my dog loved it). This is a great tool to have that’s available over the counter without needing a prescription from your veterinarian. It’s worth a try to see if it works for your pets!

I wanted to like this product considering our boys and us love Fera as a brand. Their probiotic powder is truly a godsend. Unfortunately the same can’t be said for their calming supplements. The one with goat milk added in (tried previously) gave our nervous boy major loose stools, so we tried this one [minus milk additives] instead. Well… it didn’t work either. Not only did it not calm our nervous boy down, it actually increased his anxiety. He became extremely vocal, was picking fights with his brother, and even started urinating outside of the litter box. We stopped giving him the supplement quickly after that and thankfully his extra nerves subsided after the supplement completely cleared his system. We will continue using the FERA probiotic powder cause it clearly works, but just be cautious of calming supplements and how they can affect your pets. Sometimes the side effects just aren’t worth the possibility of the aid the product might provide.

I am a longtime fan of Fera Pet Organics and was excited to see that they had a new Calming product. My dog, Clancy, is the apple of my eye but he’s also a rescue that is extremely anxious. Clancy barks if anything in his world feels off-balance, including when the scary garbage truck comes down the street or when the neighborhood crows have the audacity to walk along the backyard fence. Since using the Calming Support supplement, Clancy is noticeably more calm. He still barks at the garbage truck and those darn crows, but sometimes he actually ignores them now. The Calming Support supplement comes in a powder with clear dosing instructions. I mix the Calming Support and Fera’s Probiotics into Clancy’s food. Now he’s calmer and his BMs are perfection. Fera products are formulated by a veterinarian so I feel extremely confident when I give Clancy these supplements.

Would not recommend. I prefer to have a treat where I can dose out with multiple dogs. Adding this power to food doesn't let me determine which dog gets it. Even when I added it to their food and watched them eat it, it didn't seem to help much. I think switching to a calming treat would work better. I've not noticed a change in energy level for the dogs.
