==F3==
The pheromone F3 (Feliway) is a synthetic analogue of pheromones from feline cheek glands, known as the ‘familiarisation pheromone’. It can be used to reduce general anxiety in stressful situations (such as moving house, transport, presence of other animals) so that the home or training environment is less threatening. It has been particularly beneficial in cases of cat to cat aggression within the same household and is thought to provide a sense of reassurance for cats in new or stressful circumstances.

The use of F3 diffusers (Feliway) can simulate the effect of dense facial and flank marking within an environment, whilst the cats re-establish their own marks and exchange odours that identify them.
