A question on Cats and EO's

[Guest guest]

Is there anything in our archives which either supports or does not cats

living in a house with an aroma burner going? I am a soapmaker who sells them

and

if they are not safe for households with cats and dogs I want to be

responsible about saying so. Any advice?

If we listened to our intellect, we'd never have a love affair. We'd never

have a friendship. We'd never go into business, because we'd be cynical. Well,

that's nonsense. You've got to jump off cliffs all the time and build your

wings on the way down.

>>Hi, Jody-

>>It is my understanding that cats are not able to metabolize

essential oils, so they can build up in their systems and cause liver

damage. I think some essential oils are safe to use with dogs. This

site has a lot of good information on how essential oils adversely

effect cats, they also have a link to a site that discusses AT use

with dogs: www.thelavendercat.com

Hope that helps!
