Feeling guilty about your stressed cat? We have a solution.
The family home is constantly evolving. You may decide to have another baby or build an extension but whatever it is, it’s likely these changes will put stress on your cat, as Helen found out with Cassius Disco.
Cassius Disco is a seven year old rescue cat, whose owners Helen and Matthew describe as tough. But since they’ve had a baby, Cassius has become increasingly unsettled.
On top of this, Cassius is having to deal with home renovations — one of the biggest jobs of which is putting down a new floor.
He has started to scratch in various places around the home, as well as biting his owners. Most worryingly, Cassius is becoming territorial over the baby’s cot.
Feeling guilty about the stress they’ve caused to their cat, Helen and Matthew have decided to take the 30 day challenge.
10 days later…
After plugging in the diffuser for the first time 10 days ago, Helen and Mark have already started noticing small differences in Cassius Disco’s behaviour. Cassius has been spending a lot more time with them — he even watches TV with them, something he hasn’t done for months.
What happened after 30 days?
“It’s a revelation” says Mark, commenting about the fact Cassius has started playing with him again. Even though they noticed changes in the first few days with the diffuser, over the rest of the challenge Cassius has improved a lot more. Now the baby doesn’t stress him out. Helen and Mark feel that they can now be “friends with the cat again” and that Cassius Disco fits into his role in the family a lot better than he did before.
