My cat has boarding anxiety. Will calming treats be effective?

Updated On September 23rd, 2025

Pet's info: Cat | American Shorthair | Female | 4 years and 10 months old

My 5 yrs. old Calico apartment cat used to a big place in my apartment , but I`m facing an upcoming surgery & I live all alone & I can`t find anyone to ta e my cat into their hose, therefore I1ll board her in a kennel & i`ma afraid she`ll go into a separation anxiety since she is used to a big place where she can walk & jump( her bladder is narrow) , but in the kennel not much space to move sound. Do you think she would benefit from this Calming Aid treat? I don`t know how to attach her photo.

A lot of times our animals do much better without us then we think. A calming treat that you get at the pet store is never a bad idea. I am sure the boarding facility will make sure Ginger is happy and doing well while she is there. Thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach,
