FAQ

Plug into a properly functioning electrical socket that has a clear space above it of at least 1.20 m (the oily vapour that carries the FELIWAY messages rise above the diffuser as a column of warm air).

To ensure the proper delivery of the pheromone messages, do not plug in the diffuser:

• behind a door
• under furniture
• in any socket that does not have a clear space of 1.20m above it.

To ensure that the diffuser works properly, it should not be connected:

• in a multi-plug or multi-socket adapter adapter
• with an international adapter
• in an extension lead.

Use 1 diffuser for an area up to 70m² (approx. a 3 bed house).

For a large house, or a house with several floors, use several diffusers.

1 refill lasts up to 30 days. It is recommended to replace the refill every 4 weeks, even if there is a small amount of liquid left inside the vial (the vial can never be completely empty as the last drops of liquid are not in sufficient contact with the wick to allow diffusion to occur)

With continuous use, a diffuser lasts 6 months. Replace the diffuser after every six months of continuous use to ensure optimum effectiveness.

Within 24 hours, the diffuser will be fully functional and FELIWAY messages will spread throughout your home.

When a situation can be anticipated, it is best to plug in the diffuser 2-3 days in advance to best support your cat.

Do not unplug or turn off the diffuser at night. Cats are often awake and active at night!

It is therefore best to leave the diffuser on all the time. Clinical trials show that the diffuser is effective when used continuously (24 hours a day) as this allows your cat to continuously perceive the reassuring messages of FELIWAY.

FELIWAY refills should never be used with any other electrical device.
FELIWAY Diffusers should never be used with any other refill from another company.
FELIWAYOptimum, FELIWAYClassicand FELIWAYFriendsrefills and diffusers are compatible.

FELIWAY Diffusers are supplied with a plug that is compatible with the local electricity supply of the country in which they were purchased. They cannot be used in a country with a different standard voltage. They should never be used with an adapter or voltage converter as this can lead to serious safety issues. Before use, please check that your diffuser has the correct plug for your country. Only use in properly functioning 230-240V electrical sockets.

Refills are made from recyclable plastic (PET).

The cardboard box can be recycled with your usual paper waste.

The shelf life of the refills is 36 months (the expiry date is shown on the packaging). In case of continuous use, we recommend to replace the diffuser after 6 months of use.

When plugged into a socket, the diffuser will gradually heat up, indicating that it is working properly.

The diffuser contains a heating element that diffuses the product, so it is designed to be warm to the touch. 

The level is going down, but you can't see it!

The diffusion of the liquid from the Diffuser is a very slow process. When used normally, it is difficult to see any change inside the vial during the first week of use. Slight variations will occur depending on air turnover.

To check that your diffuser is working properly, make sure that :
* the wick is not broken
* the device is permanently switched on (sometimes an electrical socket is controlled by a wall switch)
* Finally, try plugging the diffuser into another electrical socket.

The oily vapours (which carry the FELIWAY "messages") rise above the diffuser in a column of warm air. If this air column is blocked (e.g. under a shelf, table or furniture), the oil may recondense, leaving a visible stain.

Do NOT connect the diffuser under any furniture or object that protrudes from the wall (minimum clearance above the diffuser needs to be 1.20m).

Be sure to connect the diffuser away from air conditioners, vents, drafts, or air extractors. This may result in diffusion at a faster rate and the product may not last the expected 30 days.

Using the diffuser in a ventilated room (open doors and windows) may result in diffusion at a faster rate. This may result in product running out before the expected 30 days. In this case, consider placing the diffuser elsewhere in the house, targeting areas where your cat spends the most time.

When you are planning temporary events that could be stressful your cat, such as:

• party at home/guests coming to visit
• redecoration
• going away for the weekend
• your cat returning home from the vets.

In your cat's favourite room, where they spend most of their time.

The FELIWAY Help! diffuser covers an area of approximately 50 m2 (approx a 2 bed house) If your home, and the rooms where your cat spends the most time, are larger, you can use several FELIWAY Help! diffusers.

In hallways: cats spend very little time in hallways, so the efficacy would be reduced if used here.

Near the litter tray: cats spend very little time near their litter tray, so the efficacy would be reduced if used here (if the litter tray is in the room where your cat spends the most time, there is no problem plugging it in this room).

If you have cats showing signs of conflict, or your cat has been showing signs of stress for a long time, we recommend that you use a product that provides long-term comfort for your cat: FELIWAY Optimum provides enhanved serenity to your cat for 30 days.

Ideally, plug FELIWAY Help! at your holiday destination 1-2 days before your cat arrives.

If this is not possible, plug it in when you arrive and leave your cat in its carrier for 15 minutes near the diffuser. Then open the door of the carrier and let your cat come out when they choose to. Leave the carrier there, close to the diffuser, with the door open as this will provide your cat with a reassuring place to return to during your stay.

Plug the diffuser into an outlet with a minimum space of 1.2m above the plug. The warm air containing the reassuring messages of FELIWAY Help! will rise above the diffuser before circulating more widely in the room.

The diffuser must be plugged into its own, proper functioning socket.

• behind a door,
• under furniture,
• in an socket that does not have a minimum of 1.20m of free space above it,
• in a multi-socket outlet,
• in an international adapter,
• in an extension cord.

Some species of caged birds are known to have sensitive respiratory systems (particularly those in the psittacine family: parrots, parakeets, etc.). Therefore, if you are using a FELIWAY diffuser (FELIWAY Optimum, FELIWAY Classic, FELIWAY Friends or FELIWAY Help!), we recommend that you plug it in another room as a precaution.

FELIWAY is completely harmless to fish. However, if you are using a FELIWAY diffuser (FELIWAY Optimum, FELIWAY Classic, FELIWAY Friends or FELIWAY Help!) as for any diffuser device, we recommend plugging the diffuser in room without an aquarium as a precautionary measure.

If your cat spends most of their time in the room where the aquarium is located, we recommend that you use the socket furthest away from the aquarium. This precautionary measure is intended to prevent the oily carrier from settling on the surface of the water. The components themselves are not classified as environmentally hazardous.
