Alleviating Stress In Your Cat

Cats are by nature independent, and like to be in control of things

. When they are not, they can become very anxious and nervous. Some common causes of stress in cats include a move to a new home, travelling or being caged, visits to the vet, or the introduction of other cats within its domain.

Usual signs of stress include wild eyed frenzy accompanied with the desperate need to escape; irritability, including continual meowing; urinating or scent marking; and clawing at furniture, bedding, or carpets. Some of these symptoms are often mistaken for bad behaviour, but in order to cure the behaviour, one needs to reduce the levels of stress your cat is feeling.

Feliway Feline Facial Pheromones (try saying this after you've had a drink) is a product recommended by vets to soothe and comfort stressed cats, and alleviate unwanted stress related behaviour. This product uses artificial feline pheromones that cats naturally discharge from their facial area to mark a safe territory once they feel safe and secure within the confounds of the area. Cats do this by rubbing their faces on items within their area, giving off facial pheromones to mark the territory with their scent, which acts like a kind of kitty comfort blanket that gives them a sense of security and well-being.

The spray replicates the natural scent that cats leave when they perform this scent marking procedure, and in so doing, offers a sense of security to alleviate anxiety and calm the cat down. Feliway feline pheromones offer an effective solution to reducing anxiety in distressed felines by replicating the cats natural mechanism that it would use to relay a sense of comfort and well-being, in order to help him cope with a stressful situation.

This product can be purchased in spray form, which is perfect for applying straight onto objects, for example spraying inside a cat basket to offer contentment and reassurance and alleviate stress associated with crating and travel.

The Feliway Feline Facial Pheromone Diffuser offers a novel method of keeping a well-adjusted, happy cat that always comes home to snuggle up in a cosy corner, or just laze contentedly around the house. The diffuser plugs into an electrical wall socket, giving off a continual burst of pheromones. Your cat will definitely believe that there is no place like home. Aside from relieving stress and worry in cats, this product is also great for controlling behaviour such as territory marking by urine spraying, and scratching the furniture, which are often related to stress associated with the introduction of a new cat or pet into your home (or rather, the cats home). The diffuser fills the room and the calming effect of the pheromones will help reduce anxiety and alleviate the behaviour associated with territory and scent marking.

The Feliway Feline Facial Pheromone diffuser comes with a 48ml vial, which lasts up to a month. Refills for the diffuser can be bought separately. Feliway Feline Facial Pheromones can also be bought in a 60ml spray bottle and a 15ml travel bottle for easy portability when needed away from the house.
