Turned struggle snuggles into cuddle puddles
Our cat was a feral rescue we got as a kitten. She has spent the last 8 years indoors and spends a majority of her day sleeping, hiding, and running when you want to snuggle, pet, or just show any small amount of affection. We typically see her twice a day when she demands to be fed. Typically an hour or two before it's her designated feeding time. She has had a couple of big moves and suffers from terrible anxiety. When she was a kitten she endured a 17 hour drive without eating or drinking anything and cried the entire time. It was heartbreaking. She hid for a week straight. Then a few years later we had a very short distance move and the stress from that made her even more nervous and less trusting. She was finally getting comfortable being out during the day and about that time we found out we were going to be moving to Hawaii.Instantly memories of her distressed crying for the majority of a 17 hour drive came flashing back and I talked to the Veterinarian about our options to make the flight possible. She was going to be flying in the cabin and I knew if she was under severe distress there was a possibility she couldn't fly. Plus I didn't want to subject others to the awful sounds of those throaty cries. The Vet said that we could use an antihistamine to make her sleepy as airlines don't allow animals to be "drugged" and seemingly out of it. I really didn't like the sound of attempting to give our family pet a medication designated for humans but heard it was quite successful for many in long distance moves and flights.Well it didn't work. I tried every recommendation the Vet and internet had to offer on getting our cat to eat a small amount of the antihistamine and all it resulted in was our cat being under so much stress she was literally foaming at the mouth. Then she didn't trust me and if I fed her at meal times she wouldn't eat. It was very sad and I felt terrible. It was then that I began researching homeopathic remedies to ease some of cat's tension and make her less jumpy and more trusting.She isn't a vicious cat, and many who have ever came over often forget we even have a cat until she makes a cameo appearance in a social media photo. We've had people stay for a week and never saw her. We used to make her wear a collar with a bell just so we knew she was still around.I ended up with these and a couple other items in the shopping cart in an attempt to make the upcoming move more tolerable for our fluffy feline. I began giving her the recommended 1-2 per day with her daily feeding schedule a couple weeks prior to our move. We noticed a change almost immediately. She was no longer rushing around trying to hide if someone acknowledged her fluffy presence, and was sleeping right in the middle of the entire family. Usually she only trusts my husband and myself and our child are shunned.The Vet said we could likely give her more than the recommended dose on highly stressful days and she would be okay. She is 17+lbs so the morning of the move I gave her two treats right away, then one prior to boarding and one every 2-4 hours depending how much she was moving around. She was easy to take out of the carrier for TSA (Using a leash and harness in case she panicked and fled) and easy to put back in. She didn't meow the entire day, and moved around a few times on the flight. I gave her another treat prior to her being taken to be checked at the animal quarantine station after getting off our flight and they said she was very calm. A little nervous but didn't try to run or hide.Big life events are often stressful for pets. I wish I would have found these much earlier in her life because I feel like she has spent so much time hiding away. These have given her new life and she can often be found snuggling up with our 6 year old or making sure she's right in the line of activity so she can get all the pets!These were a life saver during our move and we still give them to her because she likes them and it makes her more at ease. They make her a little sleepier than usual but she now prefers to cuddle up instead of slinking off under a bed or in some dark corner hidden away from sight. We no longer have the collar on her as she makes sure she is seen at all times of the day. I highly recommend these treats! Our cat hears the sound of the bag and will come running up purring for a treat!These do have a bit of a vitamin like smell to them, but our cat doesn't seem to mind that at all. When we purchased a larger bag of treats some of them were harder than others and we just broke them into smaller pieces. They are a bit larger in size than typical cat treats so if you have an older cat or a cat who has a hard time chewing I recommend breaking the treats into smaller bits and you could even try mixing with wet food.These have changed the dynamic in our house so much as we all are able to provide lots of pets and loves to our fluffy feline now that she's more relaxed. Definitely give these a try! I know that these may not be ideal for all cats, but they're at least worth a try!
