I would recommend using the Feliway products, which can be found online or at your local PetCo. You can also try NaturVet Quiet Moments Calm Chews with Melatonin which can also be found online or at your local PetCo and see if this helps calm her. I hope this helps! Please let me know if you have any other questions and I would be more than happy to help you further. Please remember to rate this answer as helpful or not. Thank you!
