How to stop a rehomed cat from scratching people due to stress?

Question

Rehomed cat is scratching people? She's never been violent, is it just because she's not used to the lady? How long will it take for her to be okay

Dr. Leigh, DVM · Accepted Answer

Her behavior may be caused by the stress of changing homes. You could try some Feliway spray or diffuser and see if that helps. Otherwise, talk to your vet about trying an anti-anxiety medication, like Prozac or Trazodone. http://www.feliway.com/us/#redirected
