Best place to get Feliway?
Are there any Feliway bargains out there at the moment? I've found the refills for £12.99 on Zooplus but wandered if anyone had seen any better?

How long would you leave a cat home alone for?
My cat is 99% a house cat, with the occasional brief foray outdoors in good weather - and she will come in to use the litter tray, rather than going outdoors.

Yesterday we picked up our new dog from a rescue kennels. He is an 18 month old stb. He's completely mad! The only time he sits still is when he's in the car (looking out of the window).

The neighbour's cat - quandary
We recently moved to a new build and one night when we came home, a rather friendly cat appeared and started meowing. He/she was very affectionate and we stroked it. We went in and thought nothing more about it. A few nights later at 10pm, we heard the cat meowing at our door. It didn't come in but we stroked it (my…

Poor design of cat flap
We have just fitted a replacement PetSafe 300 series cat flap in our conservatory - the design appears flawed in that the outside of the mechanism has a cut out - directly over the red knob - which rain will obviously enter the flap through which will leave a pool of water on the floor - could someone who has one - please…

Feliway
We need to get some Feliway refills before Nov 5th and see that Mr Pets appears to be the cheapest available in UK (£14.40) ? I also see that other sites mention that OLD refills are only compatible with OLD diffusers, which implies that they have changed them ? Could someone please confirm whether we need diffusers as…
