Comfort Zone60 Day Starter Kit: 1 Cat Calming Diffuser & 2 Refills; Cat Pheromones Help Anxiety; Reduce Stress, Urine Marking, Scratching

Why did you pick this product vs others?:This definitely works! We got a new dog and our cat was struggling to adjust. She practically lived behind the couch until we got this diffuser. It helped calm her anxiety and help her adjust better to the dog. I am so glad a friend recommended this! Spray effectiveness:It has no smell and one bottle lasted about a month. Small plugin to fit behind couch.

I originally bought this for a very scared new kitten I'd gotten years ago. I tried every trick I'd learned to help a new kitten adjust to a new home and new owners but nothing was working. She was so scared, I couldn't get her to come out from under the bed. So, I decided to try this because a veterinarian recommended it to me. It is a synthetic pheromone that mimics the pheromone that new cat mothers release in order to keep their newborn kittens calm and safe while they nurse and sleep. I didn't have much faith in this, at first, but was willing to give it a try.I was told it could take up to 2 weeks and should be plugged in the room the cat is in most often. It doesn't affect humans and we can't smell it.I continued to lay on the floor and talk to her as she hid under my bed, made eye contact with her, would reach my hand out to her and even sing to her. Nothing.By day 4 with Comfort Zone plugged in two different outlets in my bedroom, I heard her start to purr as I talked to her. Then, I put my hand out and she slowly sniffed it. Eventually, I had her rubbing her face against my hand, which means she's marking me with her scent; an honor coming from a cat. Little by little, I noticed a bunch of changes from her coming out from under the bed during the night time to eat by the window, rather than eating under the bed, walking around the room in curiosity about what different things there were to smell and climb and then came the biggest change which I began to fear may never happen: She jumped up on my bed and slept at my feet. After that, I knew that with time she'd be the affectionate kitty I knew she wanted to be. The poor thing was just so overtaken by fear and anxiety that she wasn't able to do anything about it until she felt safe enough. That was my first experience with this amazing product. I've used it for many cats for a variety of different issues, most recently being, my 4 year old Burmilla cat bullying my 2 year old Burmese cat. I've plugged two in for them. One is in my bedroom, where my younger cat hides from the bully cat and the other is plugged into the outlet near the cat tree downstairs, where my lovely but bully kitty tends to hangout. These have been plugged in for a week and a half now and there have been a lot less fights, my younger cat has gained some confidence and leaves my bedroom during the day for small periods of time, here and there. My older cat isn't stalking the younger one as much and seems to be less pent up with urges to attack something or someone.It's hard to know how much is time, work on the owner's part and how much is from this pheromone but given the number of times I've used it and there has been some change, though neither drastic nor complete personality change, it's enough behavioral change to give me belief that it definitely plays a beneficial role in most cats' progress.

Works well the refills are a little bit pricey. Calms my out of control orange cat.

I’ve only ever used Feliway plug ins before but I use comfort zones calming collars for anxiety issues and they work. However, I got the plug ins for some kittens that I am socializing and it hasn’t made a difference. They are only in one room and there’s no windows open so I can’t blame my layout. IMO the collars work best by this brand.

My daughter's cat has been having severe anxiety with aggressive outbursts. We have been using this for one day and she is already acting so much different. She came over and let me pet her earlier, which she never does. It seems to work well - I think she's already feeling a lot calmer and better.

After a couple of days I noticed my cat was calm. After about 10 days the cat became very aggressive! She would start biting us. She would even lunge at our face. She has never done that before. I unplugged the device and the next day she was better. No more biting. A week or two later she was acting stressed so I plugged it back in. I soon noticed an odd smell in the house. I finally decided it was the diffuser. It smelled hot. When I unplugged it, the unit was extremely hot. I won’t be using this product anymore. A total was of money!

Pheromones are known to help with so many unpleasant situations cats go through, and these pheromone diffusers work magic! No smell to humans, just plug them in and let the magic fill the air with kitty-calming fierceness. I use them when introducing rescues, keeping the peace & around the time when fireworks seem to go on forever. I have a one bedroom apartment…about 620 sq ft and I plug one diffuser into a living room socket. After 8 hours I move the diffuser to the bedroom. The pheromones work quickly, and honest to goodness, after 1-3 days there is harmony with the kitties here.Kitty folks know skittishness and stranger introductions can be nerve wracking. Trust me…try these diffusers. You’ll be just as amazed as I am with the wonderful results.

I can't praise this stuff enough! It has helped my moody cat so so much. It does put out a leather like scent when you first plug it in. I did not see any oil marks or anything like others have, but I did make sure to keep things clear of it.
