Study Period Group | Equilibration | G0 a | K1a | G1a | K2a | G2a |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Placebo | 0% | 0% | 0% | 0% | 0% | 1% |
Pheromone | 0% | 2% | 10% | 4% | 13% | 20% |

G#, group‐housed period number; K#, kennel‐housed period number; SS4, snapshot‐4 time point. Bold G0: diffusers placed at the start of G0.
n = 84 observations: 14 observations per 6 kittens per 2‐week study period per group; n/a=not applicable due to too few observations.
Unadjusted P values from Fisher 2‐tailed exact test are displayed for the comparison between groups.
Statistical significance achieved at P < 0.05.
