There are all natural herbal remedies available for your pet that work well. The one I have experience with is called rescue remedy. It comes as a liquid with a dropper. Some people put it in their water and others directly in the mouth. It really calms highly excitable animals. My sister gave it to her two cats that are the most nervous creatures I have ever seen when exposed to unusual circumstances. She had to travel 1000 miles with those cats in her car. They were quiet and didn't get scared or anything. Usually they would howl all the way to the vet without being treated first.
It is always best to expose a young animal to the vet and groomer as much as possible throughout the first year so they don't freak out when suddenly taken to a strange place. Some high strung animals never adjust so Rescue Remedy is a good option. I would recommend trying it ahead of time so you know how much to use and how your pet will react. They make a few different types for animals and humans. It's all natural and you do not need a prescription. |
