Course Description

Cats are unique. In the veterinary community, we express over and over that cats are not small dogs. This is especially true in my area of expertise — essential oils. Even the mention of essential oils and cats in the same sentence can send aromatherapists and cat lovers into a frenzy: “Essential oils are toxic to cats! Never use them!” However, much of what we “think” we know about cats and essential oils is misinterpreted and outdated.
