Product Details

For some cats and dogs, environmental stress or changes to their routine can be difficult to handle. Separation, travel, vet visits, fireworks, house moves, new babies… can all leave our pets feeling anxious.

ANXITANE® is a complementary feed designed to help your pet cope with external stresses, promote normal emotional balance, and bring harmony back to your home.

Science-backed calming effects


ANXITANE® contains L-Theanine from a natural green tea concentrate renowned for its calming properties. Supported by scientific evidence, L-Theanine promotes relaxation without making your pet drowsy.

Helps to reduce the effects of environmental stress


ANXITANE® has been shown to reduce stress-related behaviours and reactions in cats and dogs [1],[2]. Pets showed fewer signs of fear in response to noise [3], humans [4] and storms [5], and recovered from fearful episodes faster [5].

May help to promote balanced behaviour


L-Theanine can also help to increase your pet’s mental focus and learning ability, making them more amenable to positive behavioural training.

Tasty and easy to give


With its delicious fish flavour, ANXITANE® is a tasty treat your pet will be happy to take. In studies, 94% of cats enjoyed the taste [1]. Simply give one dose in the morning and one at night, ideally starting from two weeks before the stressful event.

Available in two pack sizes:

• Small (for cats and small dogs)
• Medium/large (for dogs)
