Hi,

I'm thinking of ordering some of the Feliway diffuser refills from US as
they're not available (yet) in Australia. Can anyone tell me if it would be
possible to empty the contents into the vial of one of the household
"Ambipur" type diffusers (ie the supposedly nice smelling things people plug
into their houses to make 'em smell 'good'). I can't get a Feliway diffuser
from US (wrong voltage) and it's going to cost *waaaaaaaay* too much to
order one from UK (currency conversion issues).

Thanks,
Purplecat

I wouldn't try it personally. It could possibly start a fire. Can you
get a voltage converter to power the diffuser at 120 vac 60 hz? If not I
suggest using the spray instead.

You don't have to wait for it to come from the USA. I got mine from my local
vet. Yet, it is only a spray.

Yeah I've got the spray. The problem is I'm going through almost a bottle a
week with the introduction of our new cat, so it's getting pretty expensive!
I tried cutting back on the amount of places I was spraying it each day
(bedding, scratching posts, furniture etc) and they started squabbling. It
really is helping so I want to keep going with it until they're fully
settled but it's seriously impacting on my funds. At least the diffusers
last 4 weeks or so.
