About Valerian
Valerian is an herbal calming ingredient used in pet foods, treats, and supplements to promote relaxation and reduce anxiety or stress-related behaviors in dogs and cats rather than providing nutritional value. While some pets (especially cats) may be strongly attracted to it and owners report calming effects, efficacy is variable and it can cause drowsiness, gastrointestinal upset or paradoxical excitation and may interact with other sedatives or be contraindicated in pregnant animals, so consult your veterinarian for appropriate use and dosing.
