Soothe the Beast

Glantri: Kingdom of Magic

Soothe the Beast affects only domesticated animals (not monsters) or those already friendly toward the caster. Once cast, the spell makes the animal feel content, well fed, calm, and ready for sleep. These feelings will overcome any adversity due to food shortage, inhospitable climate or environment, frightening situations, etc.

However, note that, while the creature may feel well fed, this spell will not replace the need for food. Even under this enchantment, an animal will still be susceptible to starvation and its physical effects. (Soothe the beast only allows the animal to remain blissfully unaware of the condition.)
