FELIWAY Classic Cat Pheromone Calming Diffuser Kit

I heard of this product from a new vet I just started taking my cats to. My cat usually is very tense and nervous when riding in the car or going to the vet, and this most recent visit seemed no different. Riding in the car and sitting in the waiting room, she was meowing desperately, frightened of her surroundings. However, a few minutes after bringing her to the exam room (which had a Feliway diffuser going), it all melted away. She acted so calm and sedate, she acted as if she were home. The effects lingered for the drive back, where she didn’t make a peep and just cruised along with me like a champ. Of course I was sold. I got one for our apartment in the hopes that it would calm some territory related tension between both of my cats in my small apartment. I put it in a central location- in between important resources for the cats (like food or litter) but not next to. I didn’t notice as huge a difference at home as I did in the exam room, but that is probably because of the fact it was covering more sq footage and being diffused in my apartment, which is probably a good thing because you wouldn’t want them zonked all the time. It does get quite warm so make sure it has plenty of room and won’t regularly come in contact with anything. I just got the multi cat version now in the hopes it more successfully tackles my specific problem with my cats, but all in all it seemed like a useful purchase! The only other thing I might find worth mentioning is that I think once it ran out, the cats got riled up and acted kind of agitated because of a mild withdrawal from having soothing hormones in the air 24/7. That again could just be me drawing lines between things that aren’t connected but there you have it. Tldr: It’s no panacea for every cat behavioral issue, but it is worth it. Get multiple and spread them throughout the home for best results

The FELIWAY Classic Pheromone Diffuser has been absolutely incredible for calming my anxious cat! This 30-day starter kit delivers genuine stress relief that has transformed my pet's behavior and overall well-being. The effectiveness is remarkable - within just a few days, my cat's anxiety behaviors like excessive meowing, hiding, and inappropriate elimination significantly decreased. The calming effect is noticeable and sustained throughout the diffuser period. What makes this special is the science-based approach using natural feline facial pheromones. It creates a comforting environment that helps cats feel secure without any sedating effects or behavioral changes - just natural relaxation. The plug-in format is incredibly convenient and covers up to 700 square feet effectively. The diffuser works continuously and silently, providing consistent calming benefits without any maintenance or daily administration. The 48ml refill provides excellent value for a full month of continuous calming support. Having measurable relief for stress-related behaviors makes this investment worthwhile for both pet and owner peace of mind. This has been particularly helpful during stressful situations like moving, new pets, or household changes. The diffuser helps my cat adapt more easily to environmental changes that would normally cause significant anxiety. FELIWAY has genuinely improved my cat's quality of life and our household harmony. Outstanding product that delivers real behavioral benefits through natural methods. Highly recommend for any cat owner dealing with feline stress or anxiety!

For a week after a recent move my cat just WOULD NOT stop screaming at me when I tried to sleep. The first night after I plugged this in, he was calmer, and since the second night after he's been very chilled out. It could just be chance, and since I can't know I'd give it 5 stars... BUT... I bought this years before to calm down the same cat and it had no effect (I was just really desperate this time), so it gets 4 stars.

I really wanted this to work because it has so many good reviews. Unfortunately, I didn’t see any change in my cat’s behavior. He still seemed stressed and continued marking around the house. Not saying it won’t work for other cats, but it wasn’t worth the price for us.

I've had a cat for 11 years that I got from the humane society when she was 1 year old. She was a stray and when they found her she was cowering behind a garbage bin. She is absolutely the sweetest cat I have ever met and has never bitten or scratched anyone, even small children who are overly rough. But... She has a nasty tendency to pee on our beds, sofas, blankets, and anything plush, especially if we leave the house for a night away or a vacation. She has even peed on us while we were sleeping in our beds. Yuck! We've dealt with this peeing problem for years. We've tried the vet, medications, different litter, multiple litter boxes, sectioning off the apartment, sprays, letting her outside, etc. Nothing has worked. Finally, after she peed on everything for one month straight, multiple times in one day, my husband said we had to get rid of her. For the first time I agreed, but I figured I would give it one last ditch effort. I went on Amazon and bought a slew of products that I thought might help. I got another litter box that was huge (PetMate Giant litter box), new cat litter that guarantees the cat won't pee outside the litter box (Cat Attract), and the Feliway diffuser. Since I started using the three products she hasn't peed and it has been 1 month. Literally she was peeing everyday and then I installed the three products and it instantly stopped. What is more, other problems we have had with the cat are getting better too. She is incredibly shy and always hides when guests come over. This past month she actually let one of my friends pet her. She has always had problems with her eyes. We didn't know what it was from and different vets had diagnosed different things over the years ranging from infections and allergies to the fact that she is white. Apparently it is stress, because now her eyes look great. Friends used to call her the one eyed cat because she would constantly scratch her eyes until they bled and then she would subsequently not open her eyes. Plus, she has stopped biting the fur off of her paws. She is much happier and I don't think it is because of the new litter. I am thrilled and am now worried that she will get used to Feliway and it will stop working. Before I bought Feliway I read all of the one star reviews and was pretty skeptical. However, after using the product for a month I couldn't be happier. I think if your cat's problems stem from stress, then Feliway will probably work, but if your cat is marking due to some dominance issue or something else, then it may not. Also, aside from the instantaneous break in the peeing, I didn't realize it was working until someone pointed out to me how different the cat was. Finally, a note on the product. It lasts for just about 25 days. I know because as soon as it stopped working my cat started scratching her eye again. It doesn't really have a scent. I plugged the diffuser in at floor level in our family room in a small apartment. It's two story but we don't really let the cat upstairs. If you have a large house, you'll probably need a lot more diffusers than just one. It worked for one 600 sq ft open room (kitchen, dining room, family room). The diffuser gets hot, so you don't want to put anything flammable by it. Also, it takes up the whole outlet. I'm really happy with the results and hope others are helped by this review. Peeing is the number one reason people relinquish their pets, and I'd like to help others if I can to keep their pets.

First a little background, we have five cats. One (Pete) has been blind since birth. His sibling Benjamin started getting a little to aggressive when they all played. Based on Feliways claim that it’s supposed to calm and reduce stress we bought a plug in. After a few days we noticed Pete started spraying everywhere. We immediately took him to the vet to make sure there was nothing medically wrong and they were 100% confident it was behavioral. We racked our brain for a few days and tried everything. Added more litter boxes, created more safe spaces, nothing worked. After exhausting all efforts we started thinking it may be the feliway, so we unplugged it. We put it in a bag and placed it outside far away from the house. We aired out the house and that was the last day Pete sprayed. A leather chair, a table, curtains and hundreds of dollars in vet expenses all wasted because of this product that did the exact opposite of what it’s supposed to do. We did more research into feliway and found that all of the studies they reference are paid by feliway. Even worse there was also no control group in the studies. So it is basically just “take our word for it”. The independent studies that have been done saw absolutely NO positive impact. Basically what this product has done is taken a cats natural pheromone and amplified, heated it up and sent it into the air. It is basically creating an imaginary cat with a super strong scent to basically dominate everyone else. This cannot be good for a cat’s natural hierarchy. In Pete’s case he smelled another cat and since he could not see one he felt threatened and started trying to reclaim his space. Blind cats naturally have a heightened sense of smell so this must have been super stressful for him. I feel the marketing of this product is highly deceptive and is cruel. If your cat is stressed or misbehaving, take the time to find out why they are behaving the way they are and find a more natural way to resolve the situation. There are other options. This I don’t think is one of them. If you do decide to try it, use with caution. In the cases where it has changed the behavior of the cat I worry it is out of fear not out of relief.

I was extremely skeptical that this would work. My cat has been bullied by another cat and he wouldn't go to the litter box. So he would fall asleep and relax and pee in my bed! So I tried this as a last resort and within 30 seconds of plugging it in my cat went to the litter box! I couldn't believe it worked. Been using them ever since and have had no accidents! I recommend this product! The tension is not as bad between the cats anymore either. No fights.

I'm a rescuer but after a Trap, Neuter Release left me with two unadopted kittens (for three cats in the home), I decided that was the end for a bit for me. One of the new kittens (now a year old) has remained feral, but he's not a fighter, so it was okay. A month ago, a full-grown cat showed up on my deck and decided he lives with me. He's 7 years old (estimated), was un-neutered, but had obviously been in and out of someone's home. I had him neutered immediately, but he made the FOURTH male cat in the house. And he is a big boy and seems like a true Tom. I had to keep him apart from the others as he healed, and the bathroom I housed him in smelled like a Tom cat spray. This is new for me. I couldn't have that with the others, especially given two are fairly feral. The first trip out of the bathroom for the new Tom (Mr. Bojangles, Bo for short) and he walked over and sprayed something. Ugh....I was scared. Friends paid the vet bills with the idea that I would then care for Bo for his life. I was petrified he would set the feral kitties wild spraying up my little home. When he got out and about, he would wake up at 3 am howling, running through the house. I am convinced he lived with someone who worked in a bar or strip club. The vet suggested Feliway diffusers, and I was totally skeptical but desparate. So I loaded up on them. WOW!!!!! I read up on them after the vet told me about them, and people had reported that they seemed to mellow the cats out in addition to controlling the urge to spray. Again...I was wildly skeptical. These boys circled one another for a day or so and one of the kittens threw a few kitty punches, but this stuff did the trick. I would have loved it just for the spraying aspect, but it really has mellowed them in a way that isn't drugged. It's a bit pricey. I found I had to have four through my small house. I don't think it will cover the area it reports to cover...perhaps in a more open environment. So, I added extras. I figured one dedicated to my bedroom was a good idea. I bought another round of refills that will carry me another month. Then I may see what happens without them. Another odd thing is I have found they are not wearing at the same rate. The one in the bedroom is still 3/4 full, while the one in the hall is nearly empty, so you'll have to gauge what you need. If you are going to try it, however, I'd recommend that you go all out for one round. To under buy is to not give it a fair shot. Don't buy one to cover your entire downstairs, for example, because you won't know if it just didn't work for you or you didn't buy the right amount. Good luck!

Mi gato orinaba por todos lados a pesar de que ya está esterilizado y mi otra gata se la pasa molestandolo, lo cual le derivó estrés, decidi darle una oportunidad a este producto porque llegué al punto de lavar sus orines diario en sabanas, sillas, etc. Y increíblemente dejó de orinar en lugares donde no debe y mi gata ha dejado de molestarlo tanto, el único punto malo es que no dura 1 mes como dice, a mi me duró 3 semanas, pero ya compré recambio porque si mejoró mucho la convivencia de mis gatos, si vale la pena a pesar del precio algo elevado

Please i'm only writing this so other customers are safe... its the worst product I have ever bòught on amazon. It melted with stings of plastic all the way to the ground with in 15 mins of me plugging it in and the liqiud container went flying across the floor like a bomb due to which my lights flused ...if I wasn't in the room to switch it of my room would have caught fire and to think of it my cats were in the same room still horrified by this event. So i complained to the company and all they said was can't refund the product as the date expired. ....like I wanted another of thier product. ...not even for free...

calms the kittens

I bought 3 of these, and every time I plugged one in, the diffuser worked for a short time and then stopped completely. Very disappointing, especially for such an expensive product.

Produto muito bom!! Recomendo para acalmar e ajudar na adaptação entre gatos.
