I have been involved with Essential Oils for animals for many years. And even before my introduction into the aromatherapy world, there has been a level of controversy regarding the use of essential oils with animals, especially cats. It became my passion and mission to truly figure out if essential oils were harmful or helpful. Through the work in my holistic veterinary clinic, I collected any data I could on toxicity reports, and also on cases that had proven beneficial results. To me, the results could not be ignored. Truly wonderful things could come by the proper use of high quality essential oils.

I have always felt protective of my patients. Only wanting the best for them. When I would recommend the use of essential oils for an animal, it always came with a level of caution. What if the animal caregiver used a poor quality oil along with my recommendation? What if an animal was harmed? Over the years, I felt comfortable with just recommending one brand of essential oils, in an attempt to remedy this potential situation. But, the honest truth is, I could never monitor every essential oil released by any company. And, there would always be essential oil singles and blends, that being created with humans in mind, were just not appropriate to use with animals, unless strict instructions and guidelines were followed.
