Functional chews formulated by veterinarians to support the management of low-level stress and anxiety naturally.
Stress and anxiety is very commonly seen in rabbits and guinea pigs. As prey animals they are naturally prone to stress and anxiety. Many factors can contribute to stress and anxiety such as changes to their environment or routine, loud noises, sudden movements, unfamiliar people or other animals.
Additionally, rabbits and guinea pigs have naturally evolved to hide any signs of distress. This can make it quite difficult to know if your rabbit is suffering from stress and anxiety. Some common signs to look out for may include:
• Hiding
• Over grooming
• Foot stamping (rabbits)
• Repetitive movements (e.g. circling, pacing)
• Decreased appetite
• Hunched, ears flattened or tucked in.
L-tryptophan is an essential amino acid not produced by the body. L-tryptophan is converted to serotonin in the brain and plays a crucial role in mood, appetite, sleep, memory, learning and social behaviours.
Thiamine helps convert carbohydrates, fats and proteins into energy, helps reduce stress and improve central nervous system responses. B-Calm can be used before stressful situations. However, is best used daily to naturally support general mood and contentment.
