What does Feliway do for cats?
Feliway has a calming effect on stressed cats. It imitates a cat’s natural facial pheromone, which is produced in a gland on the chin. Calm, confident cats use this pheromone to mark people, objects and rooms that they trust. In this invisible and odourless way, cats mark the areas in which they feel safe and secure.
Stressed cats don’t produce these pheromones and, as a result, feel uncomfortable Feliway can be used to break this cycle and help your cat feel more at ease.

Can Feliway prevent cats from fighting?
The calming effect of Feliway can make cats more accepting of other felines. The pheromones suggest to the cats that they are in a safe environment. This relaxes them and can reduce aggressive behavior that leads to territorial fights. Therefore, Feliway can support the peaceful acclimation and integration of cats.

What problems can Feliway help cats with?
Cats demonstrate behaviours for many different reasons. Consult unusual behaviour, such as frequent urination outside the litter box, with your vet. If the behaviour is being caused by stress, Feliway can help reduce it. The following list contains examples of behaviour to look out for:
- Cat marks its territory by urinating
- Cat lacks cleanliness and refuses to use the litter box.
- Restlessness due to being in heat
- Anxiety e.g. if its carer is away
- Aggressive behaviour towards other cats
- Cat scratches furniture and curtains
The pheromones in Feliway can also be used preventively. If you already know that a stressful situation is approaching for your cat, you can apply Feliway shortly before. For example:
- during transportation
- during vet visits
- during a house move
- during a rearrangement of the apartment
- when introducing another cat
- during overnight stays in a different environment
- during New Year’s Eve
