ATTENTION PET OWNERS
Essential oils are very concentrated. This allows them to deliver a lot of benefits to people, but the concentration of volatile compounds can potentially cause problems for your pets – in particular, your cats and birds.

The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA) lists essential oils as one of the 16 most common toxicological causes of tremors in cats. Cat’s have fewer metabolizing enzymes in their liver compared to dogs, but dogs can be irritated by essential oils too.

According to ASPCA, skin exposure is more dangerous than inhalation. Pets can absorb topically applied oils through their skin, or ingest them orally when they groom themselves.

In particular, be careful with lavender and citrus oils like lemon, orange, eucalyptus and tea tree. Keep your pets out of the room while you’re diffusing oils. Remember, the molecules in essential oils are very small – which helps them travel through the body, but they also float around in the environment after the diffuser is off.
