Worked for both my cats
I first used this product on my vet’s recommendation when I had to fly my two cats across the US and then keep them at a kennel until I could move them into a new apartment. The folks at the kennel reported that my cats were everyone’s favorite and the best behaved.Of course I thought they were buttering me up, but when I moved the cats into the apartment, I left the collars on to help them acclimate. I immediately noticed that one cat who’s a former indoor/outdoor cat (he became indoor-only b/c he fought too much) who often cries mournfully to be let out as well as for his meals no longer did so and instead vocalized less and in a calmer and less grating manner — short “meawrs” rather than long wails. Both cats also purred and relaxed more easily.When the collars expired I didn’t replace them to see if it could have been the new location that changed their behaviors. The former crier began to cry more and more without his collar. I bought him a new one and the crying began to drop off. The collar doesn’t work like magic though. The cat has to get into the habit of calming down with it on. Early on, it works better if you try to help it by petting the cat and comforting it. You get a lot for your effort. Once I got the crier purring with his collar on, he’d lay down and purr and purr. Soon he could get into this relaxed stated with less coaxing.Another way I know the collar doesn’t work like magic is that the crier escaped the apartment one day and when he came back, he went back to wailing to go outside even with the collar on. The crying began to taper off again only with time. In the past, he’d escaped without the collar and he made a lot more noise for a longer period of time before it tapered off some. He’d still wail regularly without the collar — even after “forgetting” the outdoors. With the collar, the crying eventually tapered off nearly completely as his memory of the escape faded.I didn’t get the other cat any more collars after the trip since her behavior is generally good anyway. I do have one negative story about the collar involving her. When she tried to get the collar off of herself when I wasn’t home, she got it trapped in her mouth. It held her mouth painfully open and my girlfriend was too scared by the cat’s panicked state to try to cut it off, which is what I did when I got home. It may have been that I had the collar too loose on this cat though I remember tightening it to the recommended amount before trimming it. Still, I’m not sure I can blame the product in this case. I also think that a break-away collar (which this one isn’t) might always come off for some cats, but I wanted to mention this incident so others would be forewarned.I’ve tried two other companies’ calming pheromone collars because they cost significantly less. They both worked just as well as this one on the crier, but I found the sickening artificial “lavender/chamomile” scent much too offensive. I can’t imagine the cat liked smelling like a recently cleaned public restroom all the time either. He did scratch at the scented ones more often as well as over-cleaned himself when he had them on. While they both calmed him down, I’m willing to pay more for this brand because it’s virtually scent/odor free.In summary, this collar worked well to help a neutered 9 YO male indoor/outdoor cat be okay with becoming indoor-only.

This collar has fixed my catâs anxiety and reduced his bad behavior!
This color saved my cat. He can be quite naughty and difficult to love because of his constant misbehavior and attitude. Most of our friends dislike our cat. When we were at our whits end, we tried this collar and it made a world of difference! Turns out, Dobby just lives his little feline life in a state of high anxiety. This collar calms him down significantly and he has an easier time going with the flow of daily life and handling changes in routine.Weâve purchased it 6 times now and we always see a big change in his behavior when the effects begin wearing off (although in our experience, they last much longer than a month). Each time we put a fresh collar on he returns to acting like a normal cat (I mean, he still gets in trouble from time to time but now itâs at the same rate as most other inherently obstinate and arrogant members of the feline species instead of at a destructive, life-ruining rate).The first couple days with a fresh collar Dobby moves slowly and is far less active than normal (like heâs on some serious kitty Xanax). Once he adjusts to the new collar, his activity picks up and he behaves like a normal cat instead of a high strung terror. Itâs impossible to get our cat to take a pill so this is the perfect alternative to trying to medicate him.The very first collar we put on him resulted in a couple of minor sores around his neck because he kept scratching at it (heâd never worn a regular collar before). He hasnât had any sores or skin irritation since so we donât think he was reacting to the pheromone powder, just adjusting to having something around his neck.This product is WELL worth itâs price for the difference it has made in our home. My husband raised this cat from a tiny kitten and has always loved him enough to be tolerant of his persistently terrible behavior. Heâs had Dobby longer than Iâve known him. To finally be able to love this cat like he does has been such a relief and a blessing!

Well Worth the Money!!
I have three cats, one of whom was fairly aggressive and another who is afraid of strangers. The aggressive one would attack me a lot, half the time because she was hangry, other times because she would get riled up and didn’t know how to calm down or when to quit. She also wouldn’t let me be affectionate with her, nor was she that affectionate with me. I suspect that because she was abandoned by her mother at only 4 weeks old, she was not exposed to enough of her mother’s calming pheromones, thereby making her more prone to be aggressive. Almost immediately (maybe a day) after I put the collar on her, her aggression went from an 8 out of 10 to about a 3. And now, she cuddles with me nearly every night throughout the entire night, greets me with an affectionate sniff when I come home and lets me love on her a lot more. And she calms down much easier after playing and getting riled up. Now I buy one for her every month. For her, this improvement in her behavior and affection is SOOOOO worth the $14!!!The only reason for the 4 stars instead of 5 is because it didn’t work on my other cat who is afraid of strangers. But I suspect that’s because he’s older (about 8 years old, technically a senior) and more set in his ways, whereas the formerly aggressive cat is only 1 & 1/2 years.
