Indoor Cat Initiative
Remodeling
When you remodel your cat is exposed to many new sights, sounds, and even smells. Loud power tools, paint, chemicals, and construction materials can be frightening for your cat. A few days before you begin remodeling, provide a refuge for the cat. Leave a radio or TV playing in or near the refuge to provide calming "white noise" that covers up the noise of construction.
When you are finished you can use Feliway in the remodeled area to provide a calming influence on the cat. Let the cat explore the new room at her own pace and maintain her refuge so that she can return to a familiar place when she needs to.
