Thank you ALL so much for helping me through what may (and probably is) feline herpes with my little Butters.
As I posted in that post, I did order a Feliway. Right now, I think one might be enough, since he is quarantined to our upstairs (which is a bedroom, office, hallway, and bathroom).
But we have over 2400 square feet of house, including the basement where their litterboxes are. How many of these should I invest in? If it's good for the cats, I have no problem buying many in bulk (one per room and two for the basement even if needed). I was just wondering what would be overkill and what would work.
And do the fillers last 30 or 60 days? I will have to make a habit to change them at the first of every month, when everyone gets flea meds.
Thank you again, and this site is going to be my saving grace.

since he is contained in the bathroom, and your worry is the transition to the new home, I would put it that room while he is in there, then move it to the room where he spends the most amount of time when the time comes...
It helps them both, though.
). He's not confined to just the bathroom right now -- he's in our entire upstairs, which has our bedroom, our office/den area, a longish open hallway, and the upstairs bathroom. So it's a sizeable area, and the other two cats are downstairs. I did just get the one, but I was going to put it next to his litterbox / food area, which is probably about 10 feet from the bed where he sleeps with us. He seems to spend most of his time on the steps waiting patiently for us to come home, though...I'd say the entire area is about 700 sq. feet, but that's just a guess, since the first floor is larger, and the house, minus the basement, is 1700 sq. feet. *shrugs* Still think just the one will do the job?
