More Information
Description
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 help prevent or reduce the stress caused by a change in their environment. The development of Feliway created a new field in veterinary medicine: Pheromonatherapy.
Feliway is available in 2 convenient forms: an electric diffuser and a spray.
How do I use Feliway?
How you use Feliway
will depend on the situation your cat is faced with and/or the
behavior he or she is exhibiting. Further details about using
Feliway to help cats face common challenging situations or showing
obvious symptoms of stress can be found at www.feliway.com. If your
cat is urine spraying: First consult a veterinarian to confirm that
your cat`s problem is not of clinical origin. After removing the
cat from the room clean the areas marked with urine using either a
mixture of water and surgical spirits or a warm dilute solution of
non-biological washing powder. Never use strong smelling
disinfectants bleach biological washing powder detergents or
deodorizers to clean the affected areas. They may interfere with
the action of Feliway and the strong smell may upset your cat
further. Shake the bottle and apply the spray daily for at least 30
days. Do not stop when you notice improvement.
Wait 15 minutes before letting the cat re-enter the area to allow time for the alcohol carrier in Feliway to evaporate off. If you need to apply Feliway to electrical equipment switch off the appliance allow it to cool down and then ensure it is completely dry before switching it on again.
