Calming Products

Calming products are specially formulated supplements that help pets deal with difficult situations. They come in various forms, each containing ingredients that promote calm and relaxation. When shopping for pet supplies, calming aids should definitely be part of every pet owner's list.

Pet owners use calming products to help their furry buddies deal with common stressors. Think loud noises, loneliness, or unfamiliar environments. Adding a calming aid to a pet's routine can help reduce their anxious behaviors and improve their overall demeanor.

Our pet calming products are all-natural, gluten-free, non-GMO, and third-party tested. We have treats, soft chews, oils, capsules, and even pellets. Your dogs, cats, or horses will surely enjoy them!

Calming products benefit pets who are easily scared or nervous the most. Dogs and cats often use calming aids, but larger animals like horses can also enjoy their relaxing effects.

Our calming products are really useful for animals that get very scared during travel, vet visits, or unfamiliar situations. For instance, dogs that get anxious during car rides or when hearing loud thunder can find relief through our calming treats or capsules.

Similarly, cats that hide or become aggressive when agitated can benefit from our oils or soft chews. Even horses can keep calm, thanks to our calming pellets.

Calming pet products include a mixture of natural ingredients that help relax and comfort animals. Below are just some of the active ingredients in our products:

Cannabidiol (CBD). Interacts with the endocannabinoid system (ECS) in pets, promoting relaxation by affecting neurotransmitters associated with calmness. 

Melatonin. Helps regulate sleep-wake cycles, promoting calmness and better sleep.

Chamomile. Contains compounds like apigenin that can help soothe nerves.

L-Theanine. An amino acid from green tea that helps boost mood-regulating neurotransmitters like serotonin and dopamine.

Valerian Root. Contains valerenic acid, which has calming properties that help relax pets without making them sleepy.

Tryptophan. Helps increase serotonin, a mood-regulating neurotransmitter.

Choline Chloride. A precursor to acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter involved in regulating mood and memory.

Phosphatidylcholine. Supports cognitive function and may contribute to a balanced mood in pets. 

Several types of calming products are available for pets, each suited to different needs and situations. Here are the ones available under our brand:

Calming Soft Chews. They are popular because they are easy to administer and come in delicious flavors, like peanut butter for dogs and salmon for cats.

Oils. Add these to your pet's food or administer them directly into their mouth for sustained relief.

Capsules. It can be easily hidden in treats or mixed into meals, becoming less noticeable to picky eaters.

Pellets. Often used for larger animals like horses and mixed into daily feed. 

Additionally, HolistaPet has two main categories of calming aids: calming CBD products and calming melatonin products. We'll examine them more closely in the next section.

Calming CBD products for pets are gaining popularity because they can aid in mood and behavior management. CBD, or cannabidiol, is a compound found in hemp plants that can help pets deal with stressors without the inebriating effects.

Pet owners often choose CBD products for their fast-acting relief. Our selection of calming CBD products for pets includes:

Calming melatonin products are great for helping pets settle down at night. Melatonin, a natural hormone that helps regulate sleep-wake cycles in both humans and animals, is especially helpful for managing sleep issues and addressing general uneasiness.

Our Melatonin Calming Soft Chews feature a proprietary blend of calming ingredients, including L-theanine, chamomile, passion flower, ashwagandha, tryptophan, and valerian root. Each piece offers a natural way to help keep your pup calm, cool, and collected as they prepare for bed.

Calming products for animals are generally effective. Many HolistaPet customers report improvements in their pets' behavior when using such products. Success usually depends on the pet's issue, the product used, and the method of administering the supplement.

Studies and customer feedback show that pet calming products do help, especially for pets easily scared by things like loud noises or being alone. For best results, combine these products with behavior training and advice from a vet.

CBD may help calm pets by interacting with their body’s natural endocannabinoid system (ECS). The ECS is a complex network that helps regulate mood, sleep, and stress responses. When pets consume CBD, it may help stabilize their mood and manage their anxious behaviors.

CBD's calming effect is extremely useful for pets during difficult situations. In addition, CBD does not make pets "high." It simply promotes a more stable emotional and physical state in our furry friends.

Melatonin works by syncing with the natural sleep-wake cycles of animals. This hormone tells the body that it's time to settle down and rest, which can be incredibly soothing for pets who easily get agitated or upset.

Melatonin in calming products helps pets fall asleep more easily and feel more relaxed during potentially high-stress periods. This health assistance makes melatonin a popular choice for individuals looking to support their pets' health.

Choosing the right calming product for your pet depends on their specific needs and the situations that cause them worry. You need to assess your pet's unique circumstances and consult a veterinarian to make the best choice.

For instance, a fast-acting soft chew or treat might be best if your pet gets nervous during car rides or loud events. Even a young puppy can benefit from soft chews to help them cope with new and potentially overwhelming experiences. These calming products can provide quick relief and are easy to administer right when you need them.

For ongoing mood and behavior issues, a daily supplement like CBD oil might be more suitable. These options work over time to help maintain a calm state.

It's best to give calming products to your pet before a potentially difficult situation. For example, if you know there will be fireworks, give the supplement a couple of hours in advance. This approach lets calming effects kick in well before the stressful event.

Also, consider regular use for ongoing issues, such as fear of being alone or anxious behaviors. This way, you can maintain a consistent level of calm and make everyday situations less stressful for your pet. Always remember to follow the directions on the bottle for the best results and safety.

The best calming aids for dogs can vary depending on their specific needs. Some popular choices include treats and soft chews.

Our calming treats contain natural ingredients that help promote calmness while satisfying the stomach. These delicious rewards help create positive associations with situations that typically cause dogs worry, such as grooming or new environments. Calming treats are also a top choice for dogs' ongoing mood and behavior management.

Our calming chews are especially popular because they combine ease of use with effectiveness. Dogs generally see these chews as treats, making them easy to administer. These are ideal for situations where quick relief is necessary. Just be careful with how many chews you give as they are quite irresistible!

For cats, effective calming aids can include oils and soft chews. When used as intended, these supplements do wonders in promoting calmness in our feline friends.

You can apply calming oils directly to your pet's tongue. You can also add the product to your cat's food or water bowl. Ingredients like CBD in these oils help promote relaxation without overwhelming your cat's senses.

Soft chews are another excellent option. Cats love to eat these chewy treats, making them a straightforward option. Just like oils, you can use soft chews as needed or as part of a routine to maintain a relaxed environment for your cat.

Our line of veterinarian-approved CBD calming products for cats can be a good choice for your feline friend. Visit our online shop to browse what we have just for you.

Not all pets should use calming products. Contact your veterinarian first to determine if starting a new supplement is a good idea.

Be extra careful if your pet has health issues or is on medication. Some ingredients in calming products may interact with their medications. Young puppies and kittens, or pets with a history of allergic reactions, might also need to avoid certain calming products to prevent problems.

Remember to start with a small dose to see how your pet reacts before fully incorporating calming aids into their routine. Typically, the dosage of calming treats depends on the animal's weight. For example, if your pet is small and light, consider giving them half a chew to start and observe how it helps.

We have a dosage guide on our website that you can check out. With proper knowledge and guidance, you can be sure to administer the correct dose.

Store calming products correctly to maintain their effectiveness. Keep all calming treats, chews, and supplements in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. This method helps prevent the products from degrading or losing potency.

For oils, make sure the caps are tightly sealed after each use. Doing so will avoid exposure to air, which can reduce effectiveness. Follow any specific storage instructions on the label to ensure the best results.
