It's helped with Shakiti (aka 'magic marker')...he was very, very feral but loves his mama :0) I can hold him like a little baby and he will just drool on my shoulder but it took months to be able to even pet him. With this being a multi-cat household (7) we have some sibling rivalry issues. The Feliway helps keep everyone calm and happy. It's helped with some skiddishness too -- I have 4 who ever quite feral at one time. I've had better luck with the spray than with the diffusers.
(by the way -- there are wonderful piles of clothes to roll in here too :0) elizabeth in alabama On 6/30/07, Susan Dubose <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Well, he has actually gotten much better, it kinda comes & goes...... Isn't it funny how the house ferals will run from you when you walk towards them, but you can sneak into your bedroom and they are asleep on your pillow, or rolling around on your dirty clothes that you tossed on the floor? (Yes, folks, I am a slob)....... It's like they REALLY want to be petted & loved, but it's soooo scary......... :( As for Feliway, I have had heard lots about it, and I know folks who use it, but they cannot actually tell me if it works or not. What do you think? Does it work for you? I have considered it, but it's pretty pricey and I always think "heck, that's a cat spay" or whatever. But if I knew it would work, I certainly would pony up the money........ Let me know your thoughts, folks....... Susan J.

It makes you smell like a cat (or so the theory goes). It really helped with the Royal Princess Kitty Katt (rehomed from my Mom's). It certainly helped establish a "safe area" with her.........not the awful smell of the terrible person who catnapped her from her chosen person.
