Not all pets will easily take a chew, such as pets with dental issues or felines with a particularly fussy palate, so we launched SettleMe™ Calming Support Liquid with this in mind.
It contains a concentrated blend of ingredients believed to be helpful in supporting calm behaviour and in reducing anxiety, stress-related behaviours and over-activity.
SettleMe™ Calming Support Liquid is intended to provide support and help your pet cope better during stressful events such as:
Vet, cattery/kennel or groomer visits
Fireworks, thunderstorms and noise phobias
Parties and visitors
Travelling
Introducing a new pet or family member
Separation anxiety
The tasty salmon flavour and addition of catnip extract makes it a favourite among both cats and dogs, so it’s easy to feed either directly from the enclosed measure dropper or added to food.
Shake well before use. Give 2ml per 10kg twice a day with meals during times of stress, and 1ml per 10kg twice a day for maintenance using the enclosed measure dropper. For example:
| Weight | At times of stress | Maintenance |
| Dogs & Cats <5kg | 1 ml twice daily | 0.5ml twice daily |
| Dogs & Cats 5 - 10kg | 2ml twice daily | 1ml twice daily |
| Dogs 10 - 20kg | 4ml twice daily | 2ml twice daily |
| Dogs 20 - 30kg | 6ml twice daily | 3ml twice daily |
Occasionally, product build up may occur at the end of the measure dropper, if this happens, repeatedly squeeze the bulb fully until dislodged, or soak in warm water.

Customer does not recommend this product
Very good, has calmed her down alot, not frightened of things accidently being dropped.
It's a pleasure now to take her for walks as she will walk along side you instead of trying to rush home all the time.
She is now more assertive now when meeting other dogs.

Holistic vet has OK'd "for Cinderella to have this short term but wouldnt advise long term because of the citric acid and Aspartate but if in the short term this helps she is happy" so I will continue to use it up until the Sell By Date but won't buy again

Only just started using this recently. Appears to be helping my anxious dogs when travelling in the car...
Customer recommends this product
Bought for our Labrador who is quite nervous in many situations. She takes if fine in her meals...is it helping?, maybe to early to tell. But we had a calm firework night without too much fuss and panting so will keep giving it a chance.

Below are some recent questions we've received regarding VioVet SettleMe™ Calming Support Liquid For Cats & Dogs, including answers from our team.
Jacqui White
My dog is very nervous when visiting the vets & groomers. When should I administer this liquid prior to these visits and do I need to give more than one dose?
It is advised to dose 1 to 2 hours before the intended effect is required.
For further info:
During times of stress, the dosing is 2 ml per 10 kg twice daily (i.e. two doses per day).
For maintenance (i.e. when stress is not acute), the dose is lowered to 1 ml per 10 kg twice daily.
Claire Morgan
It gives details on how many ml to give, using the pipette but doesn’t state how many ml the pipette holds. I need to know if it’s half a pipette or a full one to give my cat the 1ml twice a day he needs.
The dropper has markers showing 1ml and 0.5ml, but a full pipette is 1ml, to answer your question.
.liam Winch
How long before the anticipated stress should we give the calming support liquid to our ragdolls (large breed, over 5kg).
And, how long would a 2ml dose last approximately?
Many thanks 😊
It is advised to dose 1 to 2 hours before the intended effect is required. The product is dosed twice daily and so will last roughly up to 12 hours before another dose is due.

Is this suitable for a diabetic cat? She is 16 and on insulin twice a day. She gets anxious when she is left on her own
This product would help calm your cat however it does contain low levels of Fructose (which can cause a small increase in blood sugar levels). There is a small chance this will affect your cat's insulin requirements and so it is not advised for use just in case.
I recommend using a spray or diffuser calmer such as Feliway or Pet Remedy. These will not affect the underlying diabetes.
Roxanne Hillman
My cat weighs exactly 5kg so how much meds should I give him?!!
It is advised to use the 5-10kg dose of 2ml twice daily during stress and 1ml twice daily as maintenance. The <5kg is for dogs/cats under 5kg.
Loren Morris
One of my 4 cavaliers thinks he is top dog, he is very intelligent and hyper active too. He is really jealous of his brother, a much gentler boy and attacks him some times, quite aggressively. Would these drops help at all ?
This calmer may help reduce signs of the aggresion but it won't resolve the underlying issue. If any of your dog's are still entire then this could be playing into it. I recommend discussing it further with your vet, a calmer is a good idea to try but it is unlikely to completely fix the problem.
Davina Browning
Hi, is this suitable for my 4 year old cat who isn’t accepting our new kitten. He is so stressed, hisses and growls at our new kitts and then he hits the kitten and runs off. My poor 4 year old hasn’t had a proper sleep for days as he is on edge all the time. He is a very unhappy cat at the moment
This may help reduce aggressive behaviour by calming your cat and so will be useful but it is unlikely to resolve the issue. Feliway Friends is more suited and would be a better choice for this specific situation.
I strongly advise you discuss this further with a behaviourist or your vet. Cats have territories and this aggression implies your current cat feels the kitten is a threat to their territory. You should only introduce them both on 'neutral ground', that is an area where your current cat does not count ownership over. Ensure the kitten does not go into areas where your current cat sleeps, eats, toilets or rests as these will be definite areas of their territory.
Your cats will either form a family unit over time or they will form separate territories in your house. It is best discussing this further with a behaviourist or vet as I cannot get accross the full nuances of this in response to a Q&A.
Alison Park
My 10 year old Labrador has started getting very anxious when we are out if there's any loud noises gun shot, hammering etc
He's always been in the car, gets in and out fine but when we're driving he shakes and pants a lot
If I i light my fire he will not come into the room, comes round in a little while when the flames have gone,
I don't know why this happening
thankyou
A calming supplement like SettleMe is a good idea to try alongside approaching this fear/anxiety your dog has. It can be used daily or given 1 to 2 hours before the desired effects is needed.
It is important you try to behaviourally train your dog out of this fear alongside this. I recommend checking out our blog 'Dealing with Firework Phobias' as the signs you describe do seem similar to this kind of fear. It is important you try to desensitise your dog to the fear itself or it will worsen.

I have had korean young rescue cat had since May. she is v ery hostile I cant get near her quite viscious
A calmer like SettleMe is a good idea to try and help calm your cat. Aggression usually requires behavioural treatment to help resolve though, helping your cat feel comfortable and safe in your home is a good start. You should contact your vet or local behaviourist for further advice if you need it.

My rescued seven year old shih-tzu had severe gallstones before I brought her home and were removed by the vet. In spite of being on special s/o food she has just had to have another op to remove quite a few. Can I use this with her problem please as she is absolutely terrified of fireworks even in the company of my other very calm dog.
SettleMe is great for helping mild/moderate firework anxieties. I also advise reading our blog on the topic, link provided here.
It is best checking with your vet that the ingredients within SettleMe will not interfere with the diet they have suggested. It may be easiest to use a spray/diffuser calmer like Pet Remedy if you are unsure as this will not affect the diet, it is absorbed through the nose and not the intestinal system.
