Hi there and thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach to address your concern. I would recommend trying the Feliway products, which you can find easily online or at your local pet store. NaturVet Quiet Moments with Melatonin, which can also be found online or at a pet store is also something to consider. I hope this helps! Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns and I would be more than happy to help you further!
