I was talking with the vet tech yesterday, and she mentioned something call Composure that is supposed to help calm cats or make them less stressed. She was going to talk to the vet about it and get back to me, but I've done a little research in the meantime and was wondering what you all think. Something has frightened Cindy and I suspect it hast o do with our other cat, Swanie. Cindy is about 8 pounds and Swanie is about 25 pounds and kind of frat boy cat. He's not mean, but he can be rambunctious.They usually get along really well, but lately Cindy has been avoiding him. She is seeking out high places to hang out and when she is down on the floor she will run really fast to get back to a high place. For example, this morning she followed DH into the bathroom. With door closed she was very relaxed and happy, enjoyed a "water show," nosed around at stuff. Then, the minute the door was open she stopped, looked around, and ran like a cat out of hell to the bookcase. I have two Feliway Comfort Zone plugs ins, but so far they haven't been much help (I just put them in a couple days ago). I really need to find something to get her out of the habit of peeing on our bed and back into using the litter box. She seems exceptionally frightened of the room where we keep the 2 litter boxes that she normally uses. We do have another box in a different location, but I think she feels exposed when she's using any of them and, therefore, is avoiding them all. This is a fairly recent development (last Saturday is when she started), but it's been every night except one since then. I'm trying to think of a place I could put a box that Swanie couldn't get into, but I can't come up with anything for that yet.
