What is Zylkene?
Zylkene is a natural ingredient-based nutraceutical supplement designed for cats and dogs. It comes in capsule form, and may offer a range of benefits. These include helping cats and dogs cope with stressful situations.
Zylkene's key components are derived from casein.
What are the benefits of using Zylkene?
Zylkene promotes relaxation and helps your pet cope with stress. Zylkene's ingredients include the casein derivative, Alpha-casozepine. Alpha-casozepine is well known to promote relaxation in newborns after breast feeding. Zylkene can also be used as a behavioural aid, as learning is easier in a relaxed animal.
Zylkene can be used when your pet is likely to experience a challenging situtation.
These may include:
A visit to the Vet
Fireworks
House Moves
New additions to the family (both human and pet)
Travel
Kenneling
If your pet is showing agression or is responding in an unexpected way to the challenge please consult your vet or pet behaviourist.
