      Cat Calming Collars

      Anxious pets are often prone to undesirable behaviors due to stress. And if you notice your cat peeing in the house, hissing, swatting or scratching at furniture--calming aid for cats may help.

      FAQs About Cat Calming Collars

      Cat calming collars are an anti-anxiety treatment that may replace or go alongside cat anxiety medication or calming cat supplements. These devices look like a regular cat collar, and they may help stop unwanted meowing and other anxious behaviors. The collars work by emitting pheromones designed to soothe felines.

      Most cat calming collars are equipped with a breakaway feature. If your cat gets stuck on a piece of furniture, cord or any other obstacle—it will automatically break and stop your pet from becoming entangled. A single collar is often good for 30 days of use.

      Pheromones for cats are an invisible vapor. They work by mimicking the pheromones that are naturally occurring in mother cats. In other words, a calming collar gives your pet the same warm fuzzies they used to get by snuggling with their mom. This can help ease their minds and cool off frazzled nerves. These pheromones are also odorless. You won’t notice a thing while your cat is receiving a message that the area is safe to be in.

      Cats who are agitated may benefit from pheromone treatments in specific situations or around the clock, depending on their temperament. Some cats only need a pheromone treatment while traveling. Others can benefit from a collar at all times. If you move to a new home, you may want to introduce a collar until your pet becomes naturally familiar with the new space.

      Pheromones can be administered in a few ways. You can plug a pheromone release canister into a wall outlet in your home, spray pheromones from a bottle or use a calming cat collar. Home solutions only work in contained spaces, while calming cat collars emit pheromones around the clock, and the collar is always with your cat.

      If your cat is overgrooming or scratching due to anxiety, a collar might be more tolerable than cat recovery cones. Collars are small and light, and they won’t obstruct your pet’s ability to move freely.

      Likewise, calming collars are easier to put on than harnesses, nail caps and other cat health solutions for anxiety. A calming cat collar simply snaps in place around your pet’s neck. You should leave enough space for two fingers between the collar and your pet’s body. This ensures the collar won’t be too tight and restrict breathing.
