Product Description
Zesty Paws® Cat Calming Diffuser Refill is a science-led, vet-formulated solution that mimics the natural soothing pheromones cats produce to help reduce signs of stress and promote a sense of calm and security. With its gentle Orchid Mist fragrance, these pheromones diffuse throughout your home to create a peaceful environment that keeps the purrs coming. Unlike traditional heated diffusers, Zesty Paws® uses patent-pending nebuliser technology for optimal dispersion and faster results.

The diffuser projects a pheromone mist forward across the room (up to 1,000 sq ft), using sound waves instead of heat, which avoids burning risks or chemical changes. Cats recognise these pheromones as natural signals of comfort.

Dos & Don'ts?
Dos & Don'ts?
Just plug it in at the main area your cat spends time (living room, bedroom, etc.). It’s safe to place in a room with AC, but strong AC airflow may reduce effectiveness, place it in a calmer area. Use multiple units for larger homes or multiple floors for improved coverage. With added auto-shutoff feature it is safe to leave it plugged in continuously over night for best results.
Avoid placing near...
- Open windows, as mist may disperse too quickly outdoors
- Behind furniture or curtains which would restrict air circulation reducing effectiveness
- Near food/water bowls or litter boxes
How long do I have to use it?
How long do I have to use it?
You can use it continuously as long as your cat needs support. Many owners keep it running for ongoing stress management. It’s safe for continuous, ongoing use.
What if I don’t see any effect?
What if I don’t see any effect?
Some cats may take longer to respond. Try adjusting the mist level or ensuring proper placement. If no improvement after consistent use, your cat may need additional calming support.
