does this really work for cat spraying in one spot?

I have two female cats that usually don't spray unless they get stressed out. Last summer I moved and they really did a number on my old house. When they were still showing some stressed behavior (not spraying) my vet suggested Feliway. I re-ordered Feliway (it's much cheaper than from the vet) and plan on continuing use. Did it stop them from spraying? I don't know. Do they seem calmer now? Yes. I'll definitely continue to use Feliway for the sake of my sanity as well as theirs.

When we have had our cat boarded, he is very angry on return and makes messes everywhere. The Feliway plug in now prevents this. He stays calm and behaves well. It seems to subdue him. So I think it would work for spraying too.

I use it for a very nervous, jumpy cat. It works for that, but I've had no problems with spraying so I don't know.

I have found this definitely helps if the problem is behavioral and not physical. Always check with your vet to find out which it is.

I have used this in the past and it worked for me. The cat who was spraying on everything has now stopped spraying.

From what I've seen, yes. We have a total of 8 cats in the house, three that are kept in separate parts of the house. We also have a fairly decent sized feral cat colony that lives around us, and marks around outside, which is what is causing the cats to urinate/spray in the house I believe. We have gone from 2 or 3 of the cats urinating in the house at least once or twice a week, to the rare occasion per month now.

I can't say for certain. What I would recommend is putting it as close to that area as possible. Also, make sure you treat that area with some kind of odor remover specifically made for cat urine. If you don't get the urine removed - they will continue to go back to that spot.

I have used Feliway spray for that & it worked. However, I bought the plug in to alleviate aggression in a male cat & it really worked for that.

Depends on your cat and quality of the unit you receive. Our cat was initially startled and jumped away. Unfortunately the sensor and spraying were inconsistent. Sometimes it sprayed three times in a row when he was 6 feet away. This didn't bother him. At other times it would not spray at all - even when he was only 2 feet away. Curiosity took over and it didn't take him long to figure out when/where it might spray. So he simply adjusted his approach to the "no no zone" and went another way. In the end it startled us more than him :-)

Yup I think it worked great. I really sprayed on a covering by our garbage. I also put it on the couch and NOPE dog and cats stayed away. IT does not hurt anything you spray it on. JUST be liberal with it. The other thing is you can use a squirt bottle with only water. WHEN they do something just squirt the water and say NO ??. My adopted puppy does not chase the cat anymor since I spray and say stop chase. GOOD LUCK

it worked but my cat found other places on the sofa to destroy. covering an entire sofa or chair is not practical. i have chenille and it took off some fuzz but basically was ok. the whole thing did not work for me. my couch is in tatters in various locations. never underestimate the cleverness of the feline who wants to scratch!

We have 2 cats and a dog. When I spray it on the carpets (just to freshen them up) and let it dry, then vacum, all the smells are gone. Use as directed to treat any spots.

This spray does nothing to deter my cat from getting on things. It does keep her from scratching where I've sprayed it but that effect wears off after ~3 days and I have to respray.

I did not try using it for that, but it might be worth a try. I have a ferral cat problem. The cats would spray all over my porch and furniture, and sleep on the furniture as well, leaving fur all over the cushions. I couldn't use my porch because of the cats. The spray does seem to deter the pests but I had to spray several times per week.

I use it to keep the neighbor's cats & their muddy footprints off the upholstered bench on my front porch. I placed cardboard between the bench and the cushion & spray the cardboard. The liquid absorbs into the cardboard and maintains the orange scent for about a week. The cats never actually come in contact with it, but it works -- they hate the scent, and don't jump onto the bench. It has proven to be an easy fix.

Yes, if you rub it on shotgun shells. We use it in a mixture with Dawn dish washing liquid and water for an organic fire ant killer. Have no experience with cats.

It works great on cat hairball stains. As far as old stains, I've had some come out and some not come out. However, it does take the oder out of the old stains and the new. I actually will not use anything else or try anything else. I have been through a lot of different products and this one tops most of them...not to mention the price is great. I love it for my cat that is a sprayer.

It seems that everyone has different experiences with the product based on their individual cat's nature. For me, it doesn't keep the cat away from a piece of furniture (and therefore wouldn't prevent jumping on it), but it DID work to keep her from vertically scratching the side of the furniture. But you do have to be diligent, and spray the area daily for a few weeks. It's not a spray-it-once and forget it kind of product.

Just one and it sure didn't seem to last 200 sprays. It seemed to spray us more often than the cat

Cats spray to attract other cats. They will always go to that spot or near it. That is why many cats will use the same litter box. I use the sass at to keep them from getting on the counter and table. It works.

It may but my neighbor had the same problem with one of her cats and I told her to use a large tote for a litter box and it stopped the problem, they can spray in it but it still stays inside of the tote.

I have a cat to peed on both front and back doors cause cats were out side. I just kept spraying it t both doors inside and out like 3 times a week. The first time i used it, i soaked the area with the fizzion and stepped on it with old towels to remove as much as i could. I bought two sets of this stuff and we don't have a problem with Cheyenne an ymore

I am not sure this will keep them from spraying but I know that my older cat that was not using the box now uses it regularly.

When there is a behavior problem such as spraying, I used the spray can 4 times daily for a couple of months. I used it in the places where the cat would spray and after I used Stink Free urine remover, which I would let dry first of course. Some times I would also spray area like the couch with the Feliway and Kong catnip spray. It solved the problem with the cat spraying. If you are dealing with a cat that has anxiety, I have sprayed it in the main areas that the cat liked to hang out in and also used the diffuser with Feliway together and it helped to calm the cat.
