Hi,

Do you use the pills or liquid izzie?  and if tablets how many – i am giving wills 5 do you think upping it to 6 would make a difference i dont want to give him too much ?  (he is roughly 15kgs give or take a kg).

With the girls how long do you find it takes to work and how long for ?  What sort of things would you give it for ?  Do you use anything else aswell at the time (DAP? RR? …) or is it just valerian ?

Sorry for all the questions but I was wondering if I was not giving it long enough to work – do you give it everyday / a few days before/after / just on the day ..?

With my two I give 1ml liquid Valarian (they are between 21-20K)
With Manic Blake, when he first came I gave him 1ml liquid and rescue remedy straight in the mouth, plus RR in water bowl, did the DAP spray  for one night in the immediate area, plus on him and that didnt really help so stuck with Valarian and RR.

After a few days he was quite settled, I still give him valarian and RR at night as he is a light chaser – even the ceiling lights, so that he is chilled for the evening.

Suz it was 1ml morning and evening  😉

Claire RR is now in a night form for helping to sleep too- this has helped blake settle at night 🙂
