It's important never to use any of the essential oils on cats, unless it is known not to be harmful to them - I haven't had a chance to read ASPCA piece yet because I'm kept rather busy, 24/7, bottle feeding a teeny kittens since it was one day old - now, 2 weeks old. However, there are some products on the market with oils, but it's probably either safe or safe in tiny amounts.

MANY CAN BE HARMFUL. IT SEEMS CATS DO NOT METABILIZE THEM LIKE WE DO AND THAT CAUSES THE PROBLEM. I HAD ALREADY BOUGHT SOME TEA TREE OIL FOR MYSELF AND WHEN I FOUND THIS OUT, THREW IT IN THE GARBAGE. DR. FOX ALSO HAS SOME MOE INFO ON OILS AND CATS. ---- Beth <[email protected]> wrote: > Stay away from tea tree oil. It is toxic to cats & I've seen it in "Natural" > remedies for cats - scary!
