Product description

Water-soluble powder supplement for mixing in your cat or dog's food, with natural calming effects for use during stressful situations such as journeys, house moves or fireworks.
Pets can get stressed when they face certain situations or something in their environment changes. Many different things can contribute to your pet feeling anxious, including going into kennels or a cattery, moving house, visits to the vet and new additions to the family. You can use Zylkene to help your cat or small dog cope with unexpected or unusual situations that cause anxiety. Zylkene capsules help your pet to cope with stress more easily, using only natural active ingredients.

Zylkene contains a substance derived from milk that is also created in the gut of newborn puppies when they digest their mother’s milk. This ingredient has a relaxing, calming effect on your dog, without the risk of addiction or side-effects. Simply open the capsule and the water-soluble powder can then be sprinkled onto your dog’s food or dissolved into a drink. The 75mg dose is ideal for smaller dogs or cats weighing less than 10kg, to increase wellbeing at times of stress.

Great, but use with caution

This works great on my older cat. She’s had no issues. However, if your cat is nervous or anxious because of territory aggression, it’ll make them much more aggressive. Found this out the hard way when I gave them to my younger cat. She became incredibly aggressive to older cat. I googled and it’s a known side effect. Just be aware of the type of anxiety before using, especially in a not necessarily harmonious multi-cat home

Missy is thawing out.

When Missy was brought to me by the cat protection association a week ago, I thought it was the biggest mistake ever. A cat that’s scared of people and lives under the bed. I started looking for something to ease her anxiety and came across this product. After the third dose, she’s already more curious and even comes out from under the bed when I’m at home. Sure, it’s not exactly what I had hoped for, but it’s already a huge step forward after just one week. I’m happy and grateful to have found this product.

Super item

I was recommended these capsules by the vet. My tomcat was suffering from extreme stress and behavioural issues. Now, after 10 days of use, I can truly say there’s been a change. He’s become calmer and more relaxed. Slowly, his old self is coming back. I will definitely continue using the capsules and can recommend them.

Works!

My two cats can't stand each other. Previously, I tried those collars that are supposed to calm cats down. They didn't help. For one of my cats, I mix the powder into her wet food. It seems to be tasteless, as she accepted it straight away. I've noticed that she has actually become braver and dares to get closer to the other cat more often. Unfortunately, with the other cat, I have the problem that she exclusively eats dry food. I don't know how I should give it to her.

Excellent

I've been using Zylkene for years now & swear by it. I see an immediate difference in my cats when they have eaten it in their food, great to support cats during anxious times. I love that it's a natural product, no chemicals & that it doesn't have any side effects or addictive qualities. The only thing I've noticed is if you don't use them fairly quickly, the powder does start to solidify, but if that happens the solidified powder can be moulded on to a treat & given that way! I love it.

It's OK

Firstly, having used this product daily for many years, I was astounded to see the cost on here! Over twice as much as I've recently paid, Zooplus! Not like you, why so? I open one capsule into a Vitakraft liquid treat every night and it seems to calm my very anxious Bonnie somewhat.

Zylkene

RUDI has now been taking Zylkene for 10 days and I’m surprised (I was sceptical at first). After mourning his sister, we brought Dimka to us. The two of them didn’t become friends, they didn’t fight or hiss, but Rudi was (is) afraid of her. Dimka seeks closeness and Rudi sees it as an attack... the last two days there’s been a bit of progress, but this morning I was gobsmacked. Rudi was tearing around the flat like a lunatic, and of course Dimka just stared at him in disbelief as he zoomed past her.

life changing

My bonkers bengal has been on one a day for the last 7 years. There do not seem to be any long term effects and life is so much easier. I have tried taking him off them but he reverts straight away to hunting my little oriental cat again. Do try, it's made my life and the oriental cats' life almost stress free.

Will use these for life!

GREAT! I’ve used these previously as recommended by the vet (but they cost a lot more when they prescribed it than on Zooplus). It’s AMAZING! I know all cats can be different, but I would highly recommend trying these. I have found no other calming or stress relief works and she doesn’t like Feliway. These are great, easy to use, and my cat loves to eat it. The second it’s on her food bowl she goes straight over and eats it up! Highly recommend, great natural product with great effects.

Very impressive results. Nervous cat is now much more relaxed.

Our male cat is an ex-stray and has always been nervous. After our other male cat was recently put to sleep, he started over-grooming his belly and chasing his tail. Feliway didn't help and having had a traumatic experience years ago with a previous cat prescribed Valium for tail chasing, I wanted to avoid medication. Within days of taking Zylkene he stopped chasing his tail & one month later his belly fur is starting to re-grow. Will continue using until the large,bald patch is gone.

Brilliant product

I have been given this to my nervous cat for a while and she has really improved, she use to lick herself so much that she gave herself bald patches and sores and now she has stopped this all together, this product is brilliant.

Simply thrilled!

Our cat started urinating on the bed and sofa. She also changed a lot after the birth of the little ones and hardly let herself be stroked. She always seemed stressed and, to be honest, almost depressed. After just one week of using this, I can hardly recognise our cat anymore. She’s sociable again, cuddly, outgoing, gets along with the other two cats, and most importantly, the urinating has completely stopped. I’m so thrilled and can only recommend it!

Simply brilliant!!!

So far, I’ve never written a product review, but in this case, I’m simply thrilled! We brought in a second cat to join our 1-year-old tomcat, but they absolutely didn’t get along. Our older tomcat was constantly hissing and seemed depressed—you could see that he wasn’t doing well. After using Zylkene (2 capsules/day during the first week), there was a quick change in mood and peaceful coexistence followed shortly after.

seems to work well!

Our vet recommended this for my cat with stress-related cystitis, as he's generally highly strung and has a nervous personality. From the first time we dosed his food, this seemed to make him waaay more mellow! Will buy the two-pack next time.

Unfortunately, no effect.

Unfortunately, this didn’t work at all for our little tomcat. The plan was to get him into the transport box and take him to the vet for neutering. But it seems that wasn’t the solution to the problem. 🤷 He was calm and a bit tired 😂, but he knew exactly what was going on. Looks like I’ll have to resort to the heavy chemical stuff. Still, I’ll keep it and save it for another situation.

This works

We have a cat who tends to be quite highly strung and she was over-grooming. Zylkene resulted in an improvement quite quickly and she now has a complete coat of fur. We tried to take her off it early on and she relapsed so she now has a low 'maintenance' dose but we aim to get her off it in due course. Stick with it - it will take time but it does work. We mix it with lick-e-lix, but whatever your cat loves will work.

Absolutely brilliant product

I ordered the product because our cats had a long flight ahead of them. One of our cats, in particular, is extremely anxious. I started giving her Zylkene two weeks before the flight. After just 24 (!!) hours, the cat was like a completely different animal. She let us pet her without any fuss and was much, much friendlier. Absolutely recommended!

Highly recommended!!!

Our cat recently had a pretty severe flea infestation, which we struggled to get rid of. As a result, she became quite restless and licked various spots on her body bald. On top of that, hormonal issues arose, which led to territorial marking even inside our home. Since we started adding Zylkene to her food, things have noticeably improved. It takes at least a week to really start working, but her fur is growing back, and the cat is much more relaxed!

It works!

My beautiful rescue Maine Coon cross had been badly treated before I found her. After 3 years of love and patience, she's fine with me, but still disappears as soon as anyone visits. She's terrified of fireworks and practically any loudish noise. Zylkene was recommended by the vet, and I use them before and during noisy times, along with a Feliway plug-in at all times. It's a natural, gentle treatment for anxiety, and it works, without any drowsiness at all.

Simply brilliant

My tomcat started grooming himself completely bald, especially on his belly, under his legs, and on the sides, after his friend passed away and he also had surgery. This product worked brilliantly—after five months, his fur was back to how it used to be, with no bald patches, and he seemed much calmer and more balanced again. I can only recommend it; it really seems to do the soul good after such tough experiences.
