Comfort Zone helps alleviate stress-related behavior, urine marking and scratching by mimicking the facial pheromone secreted by cats. Perhaps you’ve seen your cat rub his face on objects around your home –he is depositing facial pheromones to mark the areas that are familiar in his territory. When your cat senses these facial pheromones in areas of your home, he does not feel the urge to urine mark or scratch.

Pheromones In Nature

Pheromones are natural chemicals emitted by animals through their skin and glands that help them to communicate with others of the same species. In mammals, the vomeronasal organ, a structure close to the nasal passage, receives these pheromone signals. When animals receive pheromone signals, there is an involuntary behavioral effect on those animals. There are many different types of pheromones and different classes have different effects. For instance, some serve social functions among animals, while others serve sexual functions among animals.

Feline Facial Pheromones

Pheromones are natural chemicals secreted by animals to communicate with others of the same species. Comfort Zone with Feliway mimics the feline facial pheromone that helps a cat feel at home in his environment. When your cat rubs his face on an object, or even you, he is releasing the feline facial pheromone that marks the area as familiar and safe. When he senses this facial pheromone through the nasal passage, he recognizes it as familiar and does not feel the urge to urine mark or scratch.

Reasons Cats Urine Mark

Cats are solitary, territorial animals and often use marking behaviors as a means of defining their territories. Pheromones released from several areas of their bodies serve as a chemical message to other cats. Although urine marking may be embarrassing to cat owners, this behavior is perfectly natural in cats. Your cat may urine mark for the following reasons:

• To initiate sexual activity

• Strange cats visiting the cat’s territory

• New pet or family member in the home

• Problems with a member of the household

• Problems with another pet in the home

• Moving or remodeling the home

• Visitors to the home

When a male cat is marking in response to the presence of a female in heat (this is usually accompanied by continual calling), it is not necessary to apply Comfort Zone Spray with Feliway on all prominent objects that could be attractive to the cat. In this case, it is sufficient to apply Comfort Zone Spray with Feliway only to the places marked, which are usually near doors and windows.

If the cat is directing urine to a vertical surface (marking), Comfort Zone Spray with Feliway is effective in controlling this behavior.

• Urinary tract infection or crystalluria

• Inadequate cleaning of the litter box

• Unacceptable type of litter or litter box

• Relocation of litter box to busy area
