While cats may appear calm and independent, they are highly sensitive animals that can experience stress and anxiety due to changes in their environment, loud noises, travel, vet visits, or separation from their owners. Unlike dogs, cats often express stress in subtle ways—making it harder to detect until it becomes a problem.

Thankfully, natural calming support for cats can help reduce anxiety and create a more peaceful, relaxed feline life.

🧠 Common Causes of Anxiety in Cats

Cats can become stressed or anxious in response to:

  • Moving to a new home

  • Changes in routine or household members

  • Loud noises (fireworks, vacuum cleaners, thunderstorms)

  • Car rides or vet visits

  • Boredom or lack of stimulation

  • Multi-cat household tension

  • Separation from owners

❗ Signs Your Cat May Be Anxious or Stressed

Unlike dogs, cats often internalize stress. Watch for signs like:

  • Hiding more than usual

  • Excessive grooming or hair loss

  • Urinating or defecating outside the litter box

  • Aggression or withdrawal

  • Loss of appetite

  • Restlessness or hypervigilance

  • Vocalizing (meowing, yowling) excessively

💊 Natural Calming Support for Cats

When behavioral training and environmental changes aren’t enough, natural calming aids can help. Look for these gentle, vet-approved ingredients:

  • L-Theanine – An amino acid that promotes calm without sedation

  • L-Tryptophan – A serotonin precursor that supports relaxation

  • Chamomile – A soothing herb that helps ease tension

  • Valerian root – Natural sedative, often used short-term

  • Passionflower – Mildly calming and anti-anxiety

  • CBD (hemp-based, THC-free) – Helps reduce anxiety and inflammation (must be cat-safe)

  • Pheromone diffusers or sprays (e.g. Feliway®) – Mimic natural calming scents
