| It just looks like an extremely small tight shirt....I get visions of Simon Cowell looking at it...lol Is there something else to it? Some special material, heat, pulse, pheromones excreted...something that's supposed to somehow be reassuring or calming? Cos I look at it & think someone is laughing all the way to the bank.

Donating YT 30K Club Member | I felt the same way, but Pixie was all of a sudden panicked by thunderstorms. I finally broke down and bought one and the first time I put it on she laid down for a couple of minutes and I thought greta it works. But then she was right back to panting, shaking and clinging to me. One night we had storms all night and I put it on and she stopped shaking but I held her all night and she was panting the whole time. So I wasn't seeing the results I had hoped for. The next night she woke me up by panting and shaking and sure enough a minute later I heard thunder. I put her thunder shirt on and held her. 10 minutes later she jumped down and i checked on her an she had gone in to my walk in closet and was laying in there. I discovered she likes to go in there when scared. I fell back asleep and when I woke up hours later she was sound asleep in the closet with her thunder shirt on. So I think it definitely helped Pixie but took a couple of times. We are expecting more thunderstorms this week so I will see if it continues to help.
