Pathologies, moving, going on vacation, cohabitation with other animals, change of routine… Many causes can cause a behavioral disorder in your pet .

You can then, as a first resort, use animal pheromones to reassure your tomcat or doggie and try to soothe his mood swings.
Calming your cat
Like most felines, the cat is a territorial animal . His space, his home, he marks and defends it. As a result, he can be anxious when he has to change his home. This can result in different ways: deterioration of the furniture, excessive meowing , marking of the territory by urinating everywhere … It is therefore essential to reassure him as soon as he arrives in his new home . This, with the natural pheromones available in pharmacies . They aim to create a safe environment and reduce the stress associated with change .
The essential role of animal pheromones
Although they are odorless and imperceptible to humans, pheromones allow animals of the same species to communicate with each other . The sex pheromones emitted by females to attract the male during heat are the best known. But there are also specific ones that animals spread to mark their territory or intimidate aggressors .
In cats, the odors and pheromones that he or his fellows emit are perceived by the vomeronasal organ or organ of Jacobso n which is located in his palate. To reassure itself, the cat performs a “Flehmen” (it raises its head, half-opens its mouth and remains motionless for a few seconds), in order to capture familiar pheromones . However, when he is stressed, he cannot secrete enough pheromones to calm himself down , which aggravates his feeling of anxiety . Hence the need for outside help, through natural animal pheromones .
