Thunder Vest for Cats – Anxiety & Separation Relief

Q: Will this help with my cat’s anxiety during storms or when home alone?
A: Yes. This calming vest applies gentle pressure to reduce stress behaviours like meowing, hiding, or scratching—especially during thunderstorms, solo-time, or vet visits.

Q: Can my cat wear the vest while I’m not home?
A: Yes—once your cat is comfortable wearing it. Start with short, supervised sessions. Over time, it becomes part of a predictable calming routine they can rely on when you’re away.

Q: What if my cat freezes or flops the first time?
A: This is normal. Some cats react to the new pressure sensation by freezing. Begin with a loose fit for 5–10 minutes and pair it with positive interaction. Slowly increase wear time as they adjust.

• Before Storms or Fireworks: Put on the vest 10–15 minutes before the noise starts to help reduce panic and hiding.
• When Leaving the House: Apply the vest shortly before you leave to help your cat settle during solo-time.
• During Vet Visits or Travel: Use it in the carrier to support calm during transport and reduce meowing or agitation.
• When Introducing New People or Environments: Put the vest on before visitors arrive or before exposing your cat to new situations for extra support.
