When used with care, horses, dogs, & cats may benefit from essential oils & pure hydrosols.

Essential oils may be used on our beloved "fur babies" with great success.
DOGS love essential oils and respond quickly. As a general rule, use only 1-2 drops on medium-to-large dogs. 1 drop diluted on small to miniature dogs.
HORSES respond particularly well, but require larger quantities in proportion to their size. Will research specific info for your horse's situation as a consultation.
CATS are more difficult to work with since their livers cannot process phenolic compounds! Some oils are TOXIC to cats. As a general rule, kitties prefer flower & tree EOs. AVOID EOs from the myrtle family: Tea Tree (Melaleuca), Myrtle,Clove, Eucalyptus & all EOs with phenol compounds. Do your research! OR Phone or email for a consultation.
BIRDS may also respond well to essential oils, but used in tiny, diluted quantities or diffused. Have notes on how others have successfully used essential oils for birds. Am happy to share them in a consultation.
