Farnam Comfort Zone Plug-In Diffuser with Feliway does seem to help! March 14, 2010 B. Kim (New Mexico) This product does seem to help, and it certainly is WAY LESS EXPENSIVE to buy it here than it is in the pet store. Be aware - you need to use this at least 3 full months to make a long term change, and use it in all the rooms where you have a problem - for us, that turned out to be almost the entire house! Also, we finally had to add some anti-anxiety medication from the vet because our cat, who had been doing very well, would revert to spraying everytime he felt too stressed again - such as when we had company.
However, overall, this stuff (and the anti-anxiety meds) have made the difference between giving away and keeping a beloved cat.
I also recommend that you buy or check out at your library a book on cat behavior and learn why your cat is spraying in the first place - this stuff isn't going to fix everything if the source of the problem still exists, but we do have altogether 3 much, much happier cats!
Wish I'd known about this product long ago! March 11, 2010 C. Lemanski I have two cats who have lived together for about 18 months. Both were rescues and both had spent considerable time awaiting adoption.
My male cat, prior to my adopting him, had spent 5-1/2 months living in a pet store; when I got him, it was clear he was frazzled by the cat store lifestyle, although the people at the store told me what a great cat he was and how sweet. But when he was new to my home, he meowed in protest any time he was picked up, despite being a great hog for attention if you left him on the floor.
He was nervous and jumpy for many months; he had been between shelters and fosters homes and the pet store, so it was clear he was waiting for his "lap of luxury" rug to be yanked out from beneath him. After about 15 months with me he was due for booster shots. He was so stressed out after a couple hours out in the car/at the vet that he started acting out - mounting my female cat (which I had never seen him attempt before), running around the house, hiding atop the tallest cabinets in the kitchen. My biggest concern was obviously his mounting behavior, because that was stressing my female cat out. While neither cat had ever clearly become the "alpha" cat in our household, this was an obvious attempt on his part.
When he didn't calm down on his own, I started looking for a product to help him so I wouldn't have to resort to drugs. I saw this at the pet store but found it 50% cheaper on Amazon. I plugged it in and less than 48 hours later I could see a marked change in his stress and anxiety levels. It took a couple weeks before he quit running after my female cat.
The bottle did not last quite a full 4 weeks; for me, I think it lasted about 25-26 days. By the time I was onto the first refill by about a week, I would have to say: this is a changed cat. He's calm, he has gotten much more personable and seeks out attention more, he doesn't always meow when you pick him up anymore; he quit trying to mount my female cat -- I'm not saying he's a whole new cat, but it's certainly like somebody flicked a switch on his personality and turned off the crazy.
My other cat was mellow to begin with, so I haven't seen a change in her; but boy, what a difference in my male cat.
Didn't work with my cats March 11, 2010 R. G. Runkle (Springfield, MO USA) I have two cats, and neither of them had any noticeable changes in behavior when the diffuser was in use. I used up the entire cartridge, and when it ran out I decided to wait a couple of weeks and observe for any changes before buying another cartridge. The cats continued to behave in the same manner they always did--before, during, and after this diffuser was used. This may be a miracle product for some, but honestly I feel like it's just a gimmick... I'm just glad I decided to wait before buying a refill; it would have been a waste of money.
Didn't help our cat... February 24, 2010 I am (Maryland, USA) Our cat has a lot of issues. He's just a big fat cat who likes to potty wherever he sees fit. He'll pee in his box and get out and immediately poop on the floor. ...because he wants his box scooped immediately. He is very pretty but not very bright. I can't say the product is faulty because it didn't help him. He's just a tupey cat.
Had no odor. Easy to install. Just wish it would have worked.
Highly recommend February 22, 2010 Smileytee This product works great for our cat. We have a 17 year old indoor only cat. Our daughter recently moved back home with her indoor puppy. The cat hissed and was very unhappy with this change so we put up a baby gate to keep the pets separated. Our cat still felt threatened and was still very stressed. She even began to pull out her fur. She also lost lots of weight because she was barely eating. I was looking for anything that might relieve some of her stress without putting her on Valium. She does not take pills well and since she was barely eating, putting it in her food was not an option. This plug-in diffuser works great. Within a couple of days, I noticed she was much happier and had stopped pulling out her fur. She has also begun to eat better and rarely hisses at the puppy anymore. The only negative is it covers only about 600 square feet so I had to buy two of them. Be sure and put a note on your calendar to buy more refills because they only last about a month.
