I keep one going all the time - this thread reminded me that I needed to get more refils so, Ela, I have ordered them from the link on your site.  For any folk who don't know, this means Chesterfield CP gets a small donation.

I don't think so, she's quite a clean cat, it's more likely she's slobered on it! I'll give it a few days and see if she settles. It was the burning smell (which has stopped now) coupled with the fact she's a bit unsettled.

Thanks for the advice, I'll watch the liquid level and if it doesn't go down in the next week I'll replace it,

Thanks

I've just checked on the feliway site and it says there may be a burning smell for a short while when you plug one in so if it's been off for a few days you may get a bit of a smell.  But I wouldn't have thought it would last for more than a few hours.

It does also say to make sure they've not peed on it!  Any chance that might have happened?

That's what i thought. It was off for three days and I thought the buring smell was probably just dust which had settles in the mean time, but I wondered whether I may have damaged it as it will have run out a while before I turned it off. Sounds like it should still be working. But she's started crying again at night and the feliway usually stops that - I can't cope with another sleepless night!!

I've had one plugged in since last April - must have had about 8 or 9 refills and I've never had any burning smell.  That doesn't sound right.

Hi ladies,

Just wondering if anyone has experience of feliway diffusers and when you need to replace them. My refil ran out last week and since I replaced it, it made a burning smell for a few days and now is giving out heat, but not as much as usual I think. cat goes bonkers when ever it runs out and she still hasn't settled. Just wondering whether I need a new one it's the third refil I've just put in (including the one that came with it).

Thanks
