Fast-acting calming support for cats – VetriScience Calm & Confident is a calming chew for cats facing travel, vet visits, fireworks, thunderstorms, visitors or changes in routine. It works within 30 minutes and lasts up to 4 hours, with no loading dose required. Available at Boss Pets UK in packs of 30 chews.

Formerly sold as Composure™ – VetriScience have renamed this product, and packs in circulation may still carry the Composure name. The formula is unchanged.

Choose from three flavours – Chicken, trout, or a chicken and trout combination. The formula is identical in each, so pick whichever your cat is most likely to take — and if one gets refused, try another.

Three active ingredients – Thiamine (vitamin B1), Colostrum Calming Complex® and L-theanine support calm behaviour without causing drowsiness or affecting your cat’s personality. For use in cats only.

 

Key Features

Formerly sold as Composure™ – VetriScience have renamed this product to Calm & Confident. The formula is unchanged.

Three flavours, one formula – Chicken, trout, or a chicken and trout combination. Choose whichever your cat is most likely to accept.

Works within 30 minutes – Researched to take effect in about half an hour and last up to 4 hours.

Three active ingredients per chew – Thiamine (vitamin B1) 67 mg, Colostrum Calming Complex® 11 mg and L-theanine (Suntheanine®) 10.5 mg.

Non-sedating – Supports calm behaviour without drowsiness or personality changes.

No loading dose – Give daily or purely as needed, with no build-up period.

30 bite-sized chews – Sized for cats and formulated for use in cats only.

 

Benefits

Fast enough to be practical – Give it when the carrier comes out rather than hours ahead.

Keeps your cat themselves – Calm behaviour without sedation or a change in personality.

A flavour choice that matters – Cats are famously selective, so three options improve the odds of acceptance.

Backed by owner feedback – In a VetriScience field trial, 70% of cat owners rated Calm & Confident effective or better.

Flexible dosing – Safe to double or triple during periods of increased stress.

Veterinarian formulated – Developed by VetriScience specifically for cats.

 

How to Use

For use in cats only – VetriScience make a separate Calm & Confident for dogs, dosed by body weight.

Daily amount – Give 1 to 2 chews daily.

Timing – Give around 30 minutes before a stressful event such as a car journey or vet visit.

Frequency – Daily or on an as-needed basis. There is no loading period.

Times of increased stress – It is safe to double or triple the dose.

If your cat refuses it – Try crumbling the chew over food, or switch to one of the other two flavours.

Veterinary advice – Consult your vet if your cat is under veterinary care or on medication.

 

How It Works

The three ingredients work on different parts of the same problem. Colostrum Calming Complex® is a patented blend of colostrum biopeptides that supports relaxation and normal cognition. L-theanine, an amino acid found in green tea, supports calm behaviour through the production of serotonin and dopamine, which directly affect mood — and it does so without the sluggishness associated with sedatives. Thiamine, vitamin B1, supports normal nervous system function; cats low in thiamine can show increased nervous behaviour and confusion. Because the formula supports normal brain activity rather than suppressing it, your cat stays alert and able to respond, which matters since a sedated cat is simply one that cannot remove itself from a situation it still finds frightening. The effect begins at around 30 minutes and lasts roughly 4 hours, so timing the dose to the event matters more than giving it early.

 

Why Choose

Made for cats, not adapted for them – A cat-sized chew with cat-specific flavours, rather than a dog product split in half.

Three chances at acceptance – Chicken, trout or both, which matters more with cats than with dogs.

Fast enough to be practical – Working within about 30 minutes, you can give it when you need it.

No loading period – It works from the first dose, unlike some calming supplements.

A step up is available – For cats needing more, VetriScience Veterinary Strength Calm & Confident for Cats adds L-tryptophan at clinical strength.

Available at Boss Pets UK – Genuine VetriScience stock with fast UK delivery.

 

Common Uses

Carrier and car journeys – Often the most stressful part of any vet trip.

Vet and grooming visits – Given about half an hour before leaving home.

Fireworks and thunderstorms – Supports cats through noise events.

New arrivals and visitors – A new pet, a new baby or a houseful of guests.

Moving house and routine changes – Cats are territorial, so changes of environment hit hard.

Multi-cat tension – Daily support where cats are not settled with each other.

 

FAQs

Is Calm & Confident the same as Composure?

Yes. VetriScience have renamed Composure™ to Calm & Confident. The formula is unchanged, and packs in circulation may still carry the Composure name.

Which flavour should I choose?

The formula is identical in all three — chicken, trout, and chicken & trout. Pick whichever your cat is most likely to eat, and try a different one if the first is refused.

How many chews should I give?

1 to 2 chews daily, given daily or as needed. It is safe to double or triple the dose in times of increased stress.

How quickly does it work, and how long does it last?

It works within about 30 minutes and lasts up to 4 hours, so give it shortly before the event rather than hours ahead.

What is in it?

Per chew: thiamine (vitamin B1) 67 mg, Colostrum Calming Complex® 11 mg and L-theanine (Suntheanine®) 10.5 mg, in a chew base including brewers yeast, canola oil, glycerin and soy lecithin.

Will it sedate my cat?

No. It supports calm behaviour without drowsiness or personality changes.

My cat will not eat the chew — what can I do?

Try crumbling it over food, or switch flavours. All three contain the same formula.

Is it suitable for kittens?

VetriScience do not publish a minimum age for this formula, so check with your vet before giving it to a kitten.

Can I give it to my dog?

No. This formula is labelled for cats only. VetriScience Calm & Confident for Dogs is dosed by body weight and comes in chicken, bacon and peanut butter.

What if my cat needs stronger support?

VetriScience Veterinary Strength Calm & Confident for Cats is a clinical strength formula that adds L-tryptophan, intended for more serious behavioural cases.

Can it be given with other medication?

Check with your veterinarian before combining it with any prescribed medication or if your cat is under veterinary care.

FAQs

Is this the product that used to be called Composure?

Yes. VetriScience have renamed it to Calm & Confident, and packs in circulation may still carry the Composure name. The formula is unchanged.

How quickly does it work?

Typically within 30 minutes, lasting up to 4 hours, with no loading dose needed.

What is in it?

Thiamine (vitamin B1), Colostrum Calming Complex® and L-theanine.

Which flavour should I pick?

Chicken, trout, or a chicken and trout combination. The formula is identical in each, so choose whichever your cat is most likely to take.

How is it different from the Veterinary Strength version?

The veterinary strength version adds L-tryptophan. This standard formula suits everyday situations; the stronger one is for more demanding ones.

Will it sedate my cat?

No, it is formulated to support calm behaviour without drowsiness.

When should I speak to my vet?

If your cat has suddenly become withdrawn or aggressive, or has started soiling outside the tray. Those often have a medical cause worth ruling out.
