Feliway Spray

Feliway is a Pheromone spray from Farnam Pet Products. Clinically proven to end urine marking within 30 days with a 95% success rate. Calms cats in stressful situations or new environments - such as transport, boarding, or hospitalization, meeting new pets or people. Previously available only through veterinarians. 75ml.

Pheromones are natural chemicals secreted at various locations on the animal's body that communicate with other members of a species to affect their behavior. They're the key to feline marking and scratching behavior.

There are pheromones that make the cat feel calm and secure within his environment. These are facial pheromones. You've probably seen a cat rub his face on objects around the house - or even you. Feliway mimics these natural face pheromones. Sprayed in the cat's environment, it creates a comforting, reassuring feeling in the cat that has a calming effect and reduces the impulse to urine mark or scratch.

How to use Feliway
Feliway is easy to use. To end urine marking, clean off urine using water or alcohol ONLY. Cleansers or detergents may diminish Feliway's effectiveness.

1. Apply a single spray of Feliway twice a day wherever the cat has marked

2. Also spray on prominent objects such as furniture, doors, potted plants and corners of rooms, once a day

3. Continue use for 30 days to ensure no relapse in marking behavior

4. Spray from 4 inches away and approximately 8 inches from the floor

5. If the cat is seen marking an object with his own facial pheromones, it won't be necessary to respray it

It's important to continue treatment for 30 days. Marking should cease within that time. In extreme cases, however, "reminder" maintenance sprays may be necessary every 2 to 3 days.

If the cat is over 10 years old, spray areas once daily for 45 days. Repeat every 2-3 days for the rest of his life.

To prevent sexually oriented marking, it's only necessary to spray the soiled areas - which are normally near exits.

If you believe a change in the home may initiate marking, you can prevent it by spraying Feliway on furniture, doors and in the corners of rooms as you would if the cat were marking.

To prevent scratching, Feliway should be sprayed once per day on areas or surfaces that could be attractive to the cat (typically surfaces that are fully visible and vertical).

To Calm Cats In Stressful Situations

Calms cats during:

Transport
Hospitalization
Veterinarian visits
Boarding
Helps cats adjust to new environments, new pets and new people

For transport in a cage, spray the inside of the cage with Feliway about 20 minutes before introducing the cat.

For transport in a car or other vehicle, spray 3-4 times around the cat's usual place in the vehicle before placing the cat in it.

When boarding, spray each corner of the cattery accommodation before introducing the cat. Repeat the sprays daily until the cat is observed to rub its head in the areas of the sprays.
