What is Feliway?
Feliway is a synthetic copy of the feline facial pheromone, used by cats to mark their territory as safe and secure.
By mimicking the cat’s natural facial pheromones, Feliway® creates a state of familiarity and security in the cat's local environment.
As a result, Feliway® can be used to help comfort and reassure cats, while they cope with a challenging situation and/or help prevent or reduce the stress caused to a cat during a change in their environment.
The development of Feliway®created a new field in veterinary medicine: Pheromonatherapy.
How do I use the Feliway Diffuser?
- the unit is for indoors use only.
- plug the diffuser in a power point in the room most used by the cat during the day and don't turn it off at night
- place the diffuser near the cat's bed or common sleeping area if possible
- don't put the diffuser behind a door or cover it in any way
- don't put the unit under furniture - the vapour is oil-based and can rise and possibly stain furniture
- the more contact the cat has with the diffuser, the better the effect will be
- consider housing your cat inside if it is a roaming cat or has 'outside the house' issues
- one diffuser lasts for approximately four weeks and covers an area of 50 - 70 square meters.
- the vapour produced by the unit is heavy and will sink down to pet level so the height of a room is not a problem but the vapour will be dispersed by strong breezes
- the pheromone has no effect on humans or on your love life!! It is species specific.
