• WHAT ARE THE CAUSES OF CAT STRESS?

  Cats can be sensitive and there are a whole range of factors which can contribute to cat stress. This can include:
  
  Changes to their environment or home
  Our cats are definitely creatures of habit and changes within their home can be a cause of stress. This could include things such as having guests over, decorating and moving furniture or the introduction of a new pet/baby.

  Being given too much attention
  Some cats love a fussing, but others, not so much. If your kitty is naturally a little more aloof, being given a lot of attention in the form of being followed, stroked or picked up can be very stressful. Even more so if your cat feels unable to get away easily.  

  Holiday separation
  Taking your cat on your travels isn’t usually an option, but holiday separation can be a real issue for some cats. If you’re checking your cat into a friendly cattery or arranging for someone to cat-sit in your own home, our Chill Out calming pheromone diffuser is a great way to reduce stress and anxiety and help your pet feel calm and relaxed.

  Fireworks
  As we all know, this isn’t just an issue on Bonfire Night. They can go off all year round with various celebrations taking place, although the main season can extend from October through to New Year. It’s not uncommon for cats to find the sight and sound of fireworks distressing. 

  Threats to their territory
  Is there a new puss in the neighbourhood? If they're encroaching on your cat's territory and marking, this can be quite a stressful experience for your cat. This may trigger a fight or flight response which is associated with high levels of anxiety. Depending on the nature of your cat, they may try to fight off this new intruder or submit.

  Visits to the vet
  This is a common cause of cat stress and won't come as a surprise to many cat parents. From resisting getting in their carrier, wailing en-route and crouching low with their belly on the examination table, these are just some of the many ways our cats express their displeasure of having to go to the vet. It could also have something to do with where the vet puts the thermometer... 

• WHAT ARE THE SIGNS OF CAT STRESS?

  If your cat is stressed, you may notice the following signs:

  • Scratching furniture

  • Urine marking

  • Puffing up their fur to appear larger

  • Vocalising - growling, hissing, wailing

  • Crouching with their belly low to the floor

  • Dilated pupils

  • Becoming withdrawn or trying to hide away

  • Engaging less with humans

  • Eating and drinking less

  • Overeating

  • Vomiting or diarrhoea 

  
  This isn't an exhaustive list, nor are these exclusively signs of stress. If you notice any of these changes and you're concerned about your cat's health and wellbeing, please speak to your vet.
