Composure Feline Bite-sized Chews When humans are exposed to new environmental stressors like a new job or the in-laws visits, we can relax with a warm bath, a cup of tea, or a soothing song. When cats are exposed to similar stressors (like a car ride or a new baby), their options for relaxation are fewer. Anxiety can run high in cats who are unwittingly placed in different environmental situations, causing actions like incessant scratching, noise-making, urine marking or aggressive behavior. Composure Feline Bite-sized Chews are formulated to address these habits and the anxiety that leads to their proliferation. The Colostrum Complex difference Composure Chews contain three active ingredients. The C3™ Colostrum Calming Complex is isolated from proteins that have a calming effect on animals. These colostrum proteins are bioactive and meant to work synergistically with the L-theanine included to support cognitive functions and stress reduction. L-theanine and synergy Composure Feline features 10.5 mg of L-theanine per chew. An amino acid that support calming and relaxation, L-theanine has been extensively researched for its abilities to reduce stress and behaviors associated with it. L-theanine is a derivative of glutamic acid—a neurotransmitter, and helps the body to product calming amino acids like dopamine and GABA. In this formula, L-theanine and the Colostrum Complex work synergistically. Because the complex is bioactive, it allows the body to better potentiate a calming response. Studies on L-theanine in canines show that animals performed less anxiety-related behaviors, but without drowsiness or changes in personality. Thiamine’s role Composure Chews contain 67 mg of thiamine (vitamin B1) per chew. When a feline is deficient in Thiamine, he can experience negative effects like mental confusion, muscle weakness or spasms, and nervousness. Thiamine has been shown to affect the central nervous system and to soothe and support relaxation. Sans Herbs Made without herbal ingredients like Kava Kava, Valerian, St. John’s Wort, etc., Composure Chew’s ingredients do not cause addiction, drowsiness or impaired motor skills. Whenever, Wherever Composure Feline Bite-Sized Chews are available in a chicken liver-flavor and can be used either for immediate support or on a daily basis for ongoing support.
