Zylkene
Gentle natural way to help your pet feel calmer
Zylkene is a natural supplement designed to help pets cope with stress and adapt to new or unpredictable situations. It is particularly useful for occasions like changes in their environment, travel, or when facing unfamiliar events such as moving houses, a new pet or baby, or loud noises like fireworks.
What is Zylkene?
Zylkene is a complementary feed for cats and dogs, containing a natural ingredient derived from casein, a protein found in milk. Casein is known to promote relaxation in newborns after breastfeeding. Zylkene's calming effects are based on this natural protein, providing a safe and gentle way to help pets stay calm and adjust to changes in their environment.
Since its introduction, Zylkene has become a trusted solution among veterinarians, behaviorists, and pet owners worldwide. It’s available in a convenient, preservative-free, and lactose-free formula that can be given daily.
Why Use Zylkene?
Zylkene supports pets during times of stress, helping them adapt to situations that may cause anxiety or discomfort. These situations can include:
- Stays in kennels or catteries
- Moving to a new home
- The arrival of a new pet or family member
- Exposure to loud noises (e.g., fireworks, thunderstorms)
- Travel or festive events
Some pets, especially cats, may struggle with multi-pet households or other environmental changes. Zylkene can help ease the transition and make pets feel more at ease. Since every animal is unique, they may respond differently to stress—Zylkene’s natural ingredients help manage these diverse reactions, ensuring comfort during stressful times.
What Makes Zylkene Effective?
The active ingredient in Zylkene, alpha-casozepine, is derived from casein and is produced following strict quality standards, ensuring the highest level of safety and effectiveness. The manufacturing process complies with ISO 9001 and ISO 22000 certifications, guaranteeing that the product is safe and reliable for your pet.

Miracle!
By: Janenne on 24 June 2023My female cat is a scent-marker. Our vet recommended we try her on one Zylkene tab per day. She is now a relaxed, happy cat who seems to feel no need to mark in the house or cat-run. What a miracle! Years of cleanups a dim memory.

Made no difference :(

Works great and no side affects
By: Sepi on 10 March 2020We got 2 new kittens recently and one of our older cats was depressed and went off his food which is so rare because he's so food orientated normally, He was stressed by the new kittens because he felt he would get left out even though I still gave him just as much attention as before but he's an emotional cat. The vet recommended this when Feliway didn't make any difference and it works. He seemed better after the first day and after a week he is pretty much back to the happy sweet playful cat he used to be. Very happy and would definitely recommend this to anyone with a nervous cat or anyone about to move house, place their cat in a cattery or introducing new family members of the furry kind.
