Comfort Zone Feliway Diffuser 1 62 Ounce
Clem is a mild mannered (let's say wimpy) 3 yr. old neutered male cat, one of five of my rescued kitties. But it was he who was spraying, in the worst of places, mostly on my kitchen counters, stove top, appliances, etc. I had only caught him marking once, but I knew he was the guilty one. He is such a sweet loving boy otherwise, gets along fine with the others, but I was at my wit's end, having gone through gallons of Natures' Miracle and still finding urine.
Nine days ago, I saw a Feliway plug-in on sale at the feed store. I'd heard about it on animal shows, so decided to give it a try. So far so good! I haven't found any urine outside of the litter box. As for Clem's behavior, he seems LESS wimpy, and more assertive. He even chased off a grey fox the other day! Maybe he was just really neurotic and insecure before, having been through several homes, and rescued from the pound at the last minute. My other cats are all fine also. One female used to pick on another very shy female, but I haven't noticed any of that either the past week. I'm definitely going to buy refills. Hope it keeps working so well! If only we humans had such an easy solution for our behavior problems!

In a household with 24 cats, (that's not a typo, there ARE 24) we are the perfect test ground for cat products. We bought the feliway spray, and a plug in to try to calm a couple of our more high strung cats. Most of them were feral at one time, a couple of them abandon and abused. I really had my doubts, but I admit I've seen a huge change in some of them. Our poor big Ghost has lived in the rafters for the two years he's lived here. The only time he would come down from the hutch would be to run to his box...and he would always be chased by two or three of the other cats. The stress caused I.B.S. problems, every two to three months he was on antibiotics. The day after putting the plug in in the kitchen, he ventured down to floor level, and went into the bathroom to nap. That was the first time he ever slept at floor level. That was two weeks ago, and each day he tries something new. He sleeps with my husband every night now, just loves the bed. Today I found him sleeping on the bed with 4 or 5 of the other cats...some of them his old enemies! He is our best sucess, several of the others are less aggressive, especially towards Ghost. There are still some small problems, but I am really thrilled with this product. I'm going to order my refill today.
The scenario: my 6 months old kitten adopted from a garbage pit 4 months ago, for many unpreventable medical and physiological reasons reverted back to her feral state; fearful, crying, and creating all-night insanity, making sleep impossible for me, the other cats, and perhaps the neighbors as well.
Most alarming was that the stressful condition she was in altered her appetite, and the most she would consume was some warm milk.
I didn't want to add to the medications she was already taking, with a prescription of something like Diazepam (Valium), so decided to give "Comfort Zone" a try.
I noticed an improvement within 8 hours, and by 36 hours, all her feral symptoms had vanished, and she was calm, slept through the night, ate, and was her charming, cuddly self again. During the first 36-72 hour period, there were some "extras", like her rubbing against my legs while I was standing in the kitchen, but now things are back to normal, and she is behaving the way one would expect a healthy 6 month old to act.
The last month has been quite an ordeal, but with the help of "Comfort Zone," I feel as though a miracle has taken place, with harmony and peace back in our humble but cozy abode.
This 48 oz. bottle lasts approximately 4 weeks, covers about 650 sq. ft. and is recommended for all situations that cause stress in a cat, from new environments to the addition of a new pet in the family. It will also treat "urine marking," another symptom my kitty was exhibiting, as she would spray against the wall instead of urinating into the litter, a nasty habit that required a lot of cleaning up and that "Comfort Zone" has cured.
Completely odorless, the feline facial pheromone that is the active ingredient does not affect humans, except to improve their lives by making their fur friends happier.
I will be buying refills every month, making sure I never run out of this amazing product.
my cat has had problems for almost a year now, and the vet was at the end of her recommendations other than an expensive trip to a university for a complete workup. in desperation, i tried feliway (i was pretty skeptical). within hours, i noticed that he had stopped pacing the house, and now (two weeks later) he has returned to very much like his old self. he's laying in the bed with me and my husband again, and is content to lay around the house, as any normal cat should do, instead of pacing back and forth from litterbox to litterbox.
additionally, chase has addison's disease, and the calming effect has reduced his need for long-term steroids. i've been able to wean him off of them completely over the past two weeks. so now here i am, shopping for a refill! i paid $50 in the pet store for a plug-in and one bottle, and they sold the refills for $20, just to give you an idea of what this stuff costs in the "real world." i think i'll stick to buying it online. :)
good luck with your kitties!
My cat is 18 years old and neurotic. He's been on Prozac and other medications for being moody. He howls, whines, shreds paper, and pees on towels and clothes of the floor, as well as mats in the bathroom.
Feliway has kept me from having to put him down or regift him back to my sister in law. I love my cat and he is like my baby but he was driving me up the wall.
We've moved 3 times in the past two years and Feliway has been a life saver for calming him. We tried the sprays and they don't work as good. You have to remember to use them.
With Feliway my cat is calm. We can tell when it needs to be replaced as he becomes cranky again. He's like an old man.
The refills on Amazon average about $11/bottle and we use two a month. Cheaper than Prozac!
WARNING: Do not buy the knock off brands. They do not work as well and the wick dries up. Only purchase the bottles with pink writing that say Comfort Zone. All Feliway products are not the same!
I have three cats: 2, 10 year olds and a 10 month old. The older male was urinating outside of his box and the older female was not very sociable when children were around. Both problems started long before the kitten came. I started using Feliway after a vet visit confirmed nothing was medically wrong with the male. Within a month, after the carpets were also throughly cleaned, the male was using his box again! The female started to visit more often and has even sat on the kids laps! The older male cat also plays a lot with the kitten. Everyone is getting along really well! I know it's the Feliway and I won't stop using it EVER!
We have an old inside cat who started to urinate inside...We are hoping for a miracle with this product. So far, so good! This seller was much more reasonable than the retail store...and the product was new, sealed in the package.
I have six cats and the oldest isn't really happy with all the new additions. Using Feliway has been a big help. It has stopped him from spraying when he got mad at us for bringing in others. I have two units in my house, at one time I had three plug-ins and tried to only have one, but that didn't work. Wish it wasn't so costly, but it works. Don't buy in a local pet store, they charge almost double. Buy on-line.
We recently bought a house that was previously inhabited by a cat who urinated all over the basement. Unfortunately for us, this brought out the worst in my normally litter trained cat. We found her urinating outside of the litter box on many occasions. After taking her to the vet and finding out that there was no medical reason for this, our vet recommended feliway. We have been using it for 3 months now and there are no problems, just a happy kitty!
