I cannot thank you enough for this recipe! I had tried cedarwood oil before but the dilution wasn’t right and it upset my cat, a lot. This recipe is amazing. Not only does it work, if used once a week, the cats don’t mind it that much. I used to be forced to use a chemical because the fleas were so bad.I am SO grateful to you, that is over! My cats have never shown any signs of being ill from it, btw. And, it will last forever!

[rhondarichards]

I just want to say THANK YOU MUCH FOR BEING HONEST!!!!

[jennifersmith]

Omg I feel so much better! I put one drop of lav. With water and coconut oil&put it on the soars from fleas, then read online how lav. Oil will kill cats etc... I've been freaking out.. tnx

When you described the symptoms claimed for cats about essentials, it was spot on, with the same reaction, my cat had to Advantage! I use clove and peppermint oil, for flea and tick killer/repellant on my dog, but needed information about safe oils for cats. You never disappoint Dr. Jones, thanks again!

Thank you so much Dr. Jones, I have a cat, he has a lot of things going on like fleas, he won’t eat wet food, he has PTSD and a couple other things, I love that you know so much I trust you. God Bless you, I Glorify God for leading me to your Chanel… I look so forward to hearing all about your advice on cats.

Killer suggestion about the cognitive dysfunction thing! I hope I retain that, if I ever need it.

Hi! i am almost finished with Aromatherapy school to be a Certified Aromatherapist. I came here to see what you had to say about cats. Your video was great and your recipes were safe. I have 2 cats and they love cedarwood. One suggestion for a future video…using hydrosols on cats and dogs. hydrosols are amazing! Thanks for the great video!

[Hipoporita]

Thank you Dr. Jones to talk about this topic! So much conflicted information out there and so confusing. I was going to request to talk about essential oil safety for cats on your webinar but now I don't have to! Thank you so much! Well, while I'm here, could you talk about spirulina/chlorella? Someone mentioned it helps for weight loss. I couldn't find any study or anyone else talking about this as a potential weight loss helper supplement but I'm curious if you have any experiences with it. Thank you so much again!

[tardwrangler]

I think they should put warnings on the products for this.
What about diffusing in a room the cat isn't going to be in though?

[deniseogletree]

I’ve always heard lavender is toxic for cats! Thank you as this is my favorite to diffuse.

[roxigrl]

Thank you! Quite shockingly, there are so many products on the market that are geared toward cats that I had an idea they were not safe. Sure enough its true . Like you said, Who do you believe? I believe YOU" : ) - Not Corp marketing products for $$$$ that do not care about my fur family. My cat violently throws up and gets diarrhea when I administer Pharma Topical Flea treatments... Never again!!! Keep up the great work!!

[sarahwells]

I love my essential oils and I have only ever diffused lavender around my two cats. We are currently living full-time in a 8×27ft Travel Trailer and didn't want it to be too much.

[natalieharrison]

Thank you for this so very much. Now that I have inherent my sister's 2 cat's when she moved.

[karinaleal]

Hi Dr.Jones! Thank you so much for all the info. That you are giving to us!!! I really appreciate it! Do you know or can you talk about pet friendly candles?

[iwona]

Thank you for confirming that. I've been cautious with EOs for cats but now I'm going to add a drop or two to my neem oil diluted in coconut oil for fleas.
I have been using lavender and cedarwood in floor washing water for the last year and as a anti flea spray around the house.

Could you please explain which purpose does skin astringent serve in the spray? And what can it be replaced with. Thank you for the video.

Mr Murray is getting quite sassy. My overweight Tuxedo (Mr. Moonshine) hasn't yet popped at me but he is letting me know he no longer likes being picked up or carried. If he comes inside when I whistle there isn't a problem. He usually does come quickly but sometimes he is enjoying his outdoor time and I have to lug him back inside so I can go to the store. He yeowls loudly and shifts alot but no scratches so far. If it didn't rain so often I'd just allow him to stay in the fenced backyard since he never goes beyond the fence. But I'm afraid I could come back to a soaked and unhappy boy. He doesn't realize how much I love and protect him. Lol

[barbryll]

Oh I'm glad I saw THIS! I use a diffuser, and don't want to harm our new kitty.
I'll be making that flea recipe
