I found 'Felaway" (spelling?) for cats?

I'm glad to hear that Feliway worked so well for your cat. It's a much safer alternative to sedatives when travelling with pets and they find the scent really soothing.

It can also be used to discourage cats from scratching furniture etc. (Feliway mimics the scent from their facial glands and cats will rarely scratch anywhere they rub their face up against.)

I understand it is tough- however the average time to really panic about any lacking cat is when the time of it being lacking is pushing two weeks. It's excellent to determine with your nearby shelters and speak to your neighbors. (they will have adopted the 'lost' cat and haven't any thought) a different factor is idk when you received that chip put into your cat? My pal had a chip put into her cat and forgot all about calling the number to find the cat reason she panicked so much she forgot. Probabilities are your cat is simply out exploring and will come residence when he/she is excellent and able. When (if) the cat goes lacking for a week you could put up posters with a small reward. Hope you in finding your kitty quickly :)

Your question might get bounced, since you are only providing your solution, and not asking a question. Feliway can be useful spraying the inside of the carrier to alleviate stress in transporting.

I am glad it worked for you.
