Last night I went to bed despairing over ever making Sophie comfortable. It isn't that I took it personally.....I clearly know that I had nothing to do what happened to make her so mistrusting of humans. I was just despairing over my lack of skills and patience to wait months! A friend had just told me it might take a year.
This morning, I gambled $30 for a little bottle of cat pheromones which I sprayed 8" up from the floor on every furniture leg in Sophie's room. There's a noticeable difference! Sophie is now comfortable with me at 2 feet! I can move, even stand up, within 2 feet of her and she doesn't run away. Tonight I am going to spray it around for Miki in the hope that he will stop yowling and let me sleep. I wonder what would happen if I sprayed some on me?
I don't know if this will work for you but we made "rag" collars for our cats and sprayed the "collars" with the pheromones and then tied them around their necks. It helped ours, maybe it will help yours.
