"I couldn't get the product out of the packaging because it was too sticky. Once it was out (and extremely deformed) I put it in the cone. My cat kept getting his ears in the product which turned into a fiasco. Would not recommend this product. Way too big, way too sticky."

Bottom Line

This calming patch is effective but needs improved design for better handling. Recommend based on your cat's needs and your willingness to deal with the sticky hassle.
