Quiet Moments Calming Drops Supplement For Dogs And Cats

Verified Aug 29, 2026

Dog · Supplement Cat · Supplement All Breed Sizes

This is a liquid calming supplement for dogs and cats that provides thiamine, L-tryptophan, and several herbal extracts such as chamomile, ginger, valerian, and lavender. It’s designed for short-term use during stressful events like travel, storms, fireworks, grooming, or vet visits, and can be given orally with a dropper. The bacon-flavored liquid may make it easier to give to many pets compared with tablets or capsules.

KibbleLab Score
8.0 out of 10

Strong Choice

A well-thought-out calming supplement that combines an amino acid (L-tryptophan), B-vitamin (thiamine), and multiple calming botanicals in a liquid form that’s easy to dose for both dogs and cats. It’s best suited for otherwise healthy pets who need occasional help taking the edge off situational stress. As with any calming aid, responses can vary between individual animals, and this is a supplement rather than a complete diet, so it should be used alongside a balanced pet food.

Nutritional Perspective

KibbleLab Review

Strengths

  • Uses L-tryptophan and thiamine, which are commonly included in calming products and may support relaxation in some pets.
  • Includes several herbal extracts often used for calming (chamomile, valerian, lavender) plus ginger, which may help support comfort for pets who get queasy with stress or travel.
  • Liquid format with a measured dropper allows more precise dosing across a wide weight range and can be easier to give than chews for some pets.
  • Formulated for both dogs and cats, which is convenient for multi-pet households as long as you follow the species-appropriate dosing directions.

Considerations

  • This is a behavioral supplement only and does not replace a complete and balanced diet; it needs to be used alongside your pet’s regular food.
  • Some pets can be sensitive to herbal ingredients like valerian or chamomile, so it’s important to start at the recommended dose and monitor for any stomach upset or changes in behavior.
  • Contains added flavorings (including bacon flavor), which may not be appropriate for pets on very strict elimination diets for food allergy investigations.
  • Calming supplements alone may not be enough for pets with severe anxiety; those animals often need a full behavior plan developed with a veterinarian or veterinary behaviorist.

Top 5 Ingredients Explained

01
Thiamine
Thiamine (vitamin B1) is a water‑soluble vitamin commonly added to dog and cat foods to support carbohydrate metabolism and normal nervous and cardiovascular function. Because animals store little thiamine and it can be degraded by heat or destroyed by thiaminase in some raw fish, consistent dietary supply is essential—deficiency causes anorexia, lethargy, neurological signs and, in severe cases, seizures, so commercial diets are carefully fortified to meet species requirements.
02
L-Tryptophan
L‑Tryptophan is an essential amino acid used in pet foods to meet amino acid needs and, when supplemented, to support production of neurotransmitters such as serotonin and melatonin. It is important for protein synthesis and may help with mood, sleep, or mild anxiety in some dogs and cats, but supplemental doses should be used under veterinary guidance since diet usually supplies adequate amounts and improperly manufactured supplements have on rare occasions caused adverse effects.
03
Chamomile
Chamomile is an herbal botanical commonly used in pet supplements, treats and topical preparations as a mild calming, anti‑inflammatory and digestive aid rather than a primary nutrient source, with flavonoids and terpenoids that can help soothe gastrointestinal upset, skin irritation and mild anxiety in dogs and cats. It is generally safe in small, properly formulated amounts but can trigger allergic reactions in animals sensitive to the Asteraceae family, may interact with blood‑thinning medications, and concentrated essential oils or extracts should be avoided without veterinary guidance.

04
Ginger
Ginger is commonly added to pet foods and treats as a natural flavoring and functional ingredient to support digestion and reduce mild nausea, with active compounds like gingerols providing modest anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects. It can be beneficial for dogs (and occasionally cats) with motion sickness or stomach upset when used in small amounts, but high doses should be avoided and caution is advised for pets on anticoagulant medications, pregnant animals, or those with known sensitivities due to potential effects on clotting and occasional gastrointestinal irritation.
View ingredient
05
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.
