Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: How is this different from NaturVet's soft chew calming products?

Ans: This is a liquid tincture instead of a chew, which some pet owners find acts faster and offers easier, more accurate dosing with a dropper, particularly for cats or pets that won't reliably eat a chew.

Q2: How much should I give my pet, and how often?

Ans: Dosage depends on weight, ranging from half a dropper for pets up to 7 lbs to five full droppers for pets over 51 lbs. This formula can be given up to three times daily as needed.

Q3: Is this safe to use before a vet visit that involves anesthesia?

Ans: No. The manufacturer specifically cautions against using this product before anesthesia or any planned surgical procedure, so let your veterinarian know if your pet has recently taken these drops beforehand.

Q4: Will this drop make my cat sleepy like it might a dog?

Ans: Not necessarily. Some cats react to valerian with excitement or playfulness instead of calmness, similar to their response to catnip, so reactions can differ more in cats than in dogs.

Q5: Can I use this alongside other calming medications my pet takes?

Ans: Use caution here. Valerian may interact with other central nervous system depressants or sedatives, so check with your veterinarian before combining this with any other calming medication your pet is currently prescribed.

Q6: What should I do if my pet's stress doesn't improve?

Ans: If your pet's condition worsens or doesn't improve while using these drops, discontinue use and consult your veterinarian, as persistent anxiety might require a different treatment or extra professional help.

Q7: Is this safe for pregnant or nursing pets?

Ans: Since safety has not been confirmed for pregnant animals or those intended for breeding, consult your veterinarian before administering these drops to a pregnant or nursing dog or cat.

Q8: Do I need to shake the bottle before every use?

Ans: Yes, shaking well before each use helps make sure the active ingredients are evenly mixed throughout the liquid, so your pet gets a consistent, accurate dose every single time you measure one out.
