Can I give anxitane to my cat if she's been hiding and meowing more than usual after we moved?

Since we moved into our new home, I've noticed that my cat has been hiding more than usual and meowing a lot. She seems a bit stressed with all the changes. I read about a supplement called Anxitane that might help with anxiety in cats. Is it safe to give this to her, and could it help her feel more comfortable in the new environment?

Answer

Your cat's change in behavior, including increased hiding and vocalization, is likely a response to the stress of moving to a new environment. Anxitane is a supplement that might help in calming her anxiety.

  • Relocation can cause stress in cats, leading to behavioral changes.
  • Anxitane is generally considered safe for cats with mild anxiety issues.
  • Always consult a veterinarian before introducing new supplements.

Moving to a new home can be stressful for pets as they adjust to unfamiliar sights, sounds, and scents. Anxitane, a supplement containing L-Theanine, may support your cat's calmness during this transition. It's usually safe when used as directed, but it's essential to get guidance from a veterinarian to ensure it's suitable for your cat's specific needs.
