I use it when I've got a new cat customer in for grooming. I think it helps when dealing with a new cat thats a bit nervous and unsure of you and in a new situation. Supposed to be good for anybody that has to handle cats, lke vets etc.

I used felifriend when I got Mosi.  Hard to say if it worked as I don't know what they would have been like without it.  You rub it on the actual cat (spray it on hands then wait for the alchohol to evaporate before rubbing on the cat).  it's supposed to make them feel a bit more confident being handled and help with introductions by making 2 cats smell the same (and reassuring to each to each other)

Felifriend assists in the confidence/bonding between the cats and people. Valerian can also help in the same way.

I saw this on VetUK. It says to use it onnew things bought into the house to prevent soiling but I thought Feliway was suppose to do that?

Wonder if its worth trying. Problem is with willow, she will pee on anything made of cloth on a floor or table - ie teatowels  :sick: so I can't spray everything
