Calming and Dental Care

Pheromone products copy the signals cats use to mark a space as safe. Diffusers cover a room, sprays target carriers and spots, and collars go wherever the cat goes; most makers say results build over one to four weeks. Sudden behavior changes can be medical, so involve your vet.

For teeth, brushing with a pet toothpaste is the most effective home care; water and food additives, rinses and supplements help when brushing isn't possible.

Before you buy

• Pheromone type. Single-cat formulas for stress, multi-cat formulas for tension between cats.
• Coverage. One diffuser per main room; sprays for carriers; collars for indoor-outdoor cats.
• Dental routine. Brushing first; additives and rinses for cats that won't be brushed.
• Vet first. Sudden changes and painful mouths need a vet before any product.
