I was skeptical as to whether it would work with my two cats.
For the most part they got on quite well but occasionally the younger male is a bit of a bully to my older female. (She does give it back tho!) since getting the plug in they’ve spent a lot more time grooming eachother and genuinely seem to enjoy eachothers company It hasn’t performed miracles but it’s definitely made them both a lot more calmer (especially my older female who is much more skittish and anxious)
I have had cats for years so had to use this product before. My current cats are brothers and always sleep curled up together. As they started to go outside, one of them had come into contact with another cat, and his brother didn’t like it one bit. I had to keep them apart as they literally didn’t recognise each other. Fast forward to purchasing Feliway, the hissing, growling and living separate ended very quickly. I would say within 24 hours of the plug in being switched on, they were back to being curled up together and friends again. I didn’t use much and the plug in should last a long while as it’s not on constantly, but it’s a good go-to if they fall out for any reason with fast results.
I was a bit worried about how warm the plug in gets but definitely made a difference to my cats. I’d had a problem with redirected aggression whenever they saw a certain cat in the garden they were fighting with each other. Along with some cat repellent on the fence and some extra play time, leaving the radio on when I’m out I think somewhere in there the combination works
It works great!
For a summer when windows are on the ventilation mode constantly I do place it in living room AND bedroom, sometimes even combined with OPTIMUM or other kinds of feliway qnd IT IS A LIFESAVER.
I’ve had the normal Feliway on the go the entire time but decided to switch onto Friends to see if things could be improved. I plugged it in 10 days ago and nothing seemed to change, and I honestly forgot about it given I was still having to put down World War III skirmishes daily.
But what do you know, this evening I was lying in bed and they both came to join me. Pretty normal. Then the kitten went over to the cat for a wash. Again, pretty normal. It was when the cat let the kitten wash him back without chomping down that I realised – it was working! I expected it to impact on the kitten’s rambunctiousness, so I was stunned to see it working on the highly dysfunctional, poorly socialised, elderly rescue instead.
I confess, I shed a tear or two. It wasn’t instant and they still fight occasionally, but it’s play fighting, and the hissing has almost stopped completely, except when the pensioner is rudely awoken from a nice nap. I now feel some hope that we’ll all be able to get past the difficult teenage months in one piece, and they’ll come out the other side as the company for each other that I planned for them to be.
You can leave it on permanently but we only stick ours on at night as it’s pointless during the day as the cats are usually out and if you got windows open what’s the point having it turned on its pointless plus it lasts longer when its switched on from about 7.30pm to 8.30am when we start hoovering. I recomend these to all cat owners as these really do work. It’s made our life so much better especially now all the spraying has stopped as that smell is horrendous. Plus it’s nice to see calm cats. You are advised to use this one for more than one cat or they do another for a single cat home but usually if you only got one cat you dont get the hassle of spraying so much if you have a Male that has been castrated and the females dont spray.
