Where to buy reliable, vet-recommended Feliway for anxious cats?

I would suggest feliway spray; http://www.drsfostersmith.com/product/prod_display.cfm?pcatid=1061 Feliway Spray quickly puts an end to stress-related behavior like cat urine marking and inappropriate scratching. Use Feliway to treat surfaces your pet has already marked, as well as prominent objects that could be future targets. It also helps comfort your cat in new or stressful environments such as the veterinarian's office, a new home (or home with multiple cats), while traveling or boarding, and when introducing new cats to your home.

I would agree with Dr. Johnson. Catnip and Feliway spray can be helpful. You might also consider some training, by having her spend time in her carrier at home without actually going anywhere. Giving her treats in the carrier at home, and even progressing to short car rides around the block can be good baby steps to becoming comfortable for longer trips. I hope this helps.

Hi there! You could try Feliway pheromone spray in her carrier before the trip, along with a natural calming supplement such as Zylkene or Composure. All of these can be ordered online or purchased at pet stores without a prescription.

I would recommend using the Feliway products, which can be found online or at your local PetCo. You can also try NaturVet Quiet Moments Calm Chews with Melatonin which can also be found online or at your local PetCo and see if this helps calm her. I hope this helps! Please let me know if you have any other questions and I would be more than happy to help you further. Please remember to rate this answer as helpful or not. Thank you!

The multi cat diffuser may give you slightly better results but they both will likely help. The diffusers are nice because it’s a constant infusion of the pheromone that occurs even when you are not home. Other things that can help Trixie to feel more calm are to provide climbing opportunities that satisfy her natural instincts. A tall cat tree or shelves mounted to the wall with a bed on top can help some cats feel more secure. Set aside 30 minutes a day for vigorous play as tiring her out may result in less anxiety. Royal Canin also makes a diet called Calm that affects the serotonin levels in the brain and some cats do very well on this diet. If she continues not to do well, medications may help. I hope this is helpful and please feel free to post any additional questions!

In addition to the Feliway diffuser I recommend an anti-anxiety supplement. I use Solliquin but there are others at PetCo that are similar. Make sure she has a quiet, private place to go to when she's nervous. I recommend not pushing her to be with you when she's anxious since she may be more aggressive during those times. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach to help you care for Eva.

You can speak to another vet about anti-anxiety medications for Prim, but I can recommend a few things you can do at home for her. First, I suggest trying Feliway. It's a plug in diffuser that spreads pheromones around the room, which helps with anxious cats. You can also use a Sentry calming collar on her, which will also release pheromones when in contact with her skin. Certainly get a second opinion about medications for her as well.
