Animal Scents® Collection

Last week I talked in general terms about using essential oils with animals and what precautions you need to take. This week I wanted to take a closer look at the options that Young Living has to offer. Not only does Young Living offer me non-toxic solutions for me and my beloved pet, I also love being a part of a company that gives back:

Animal Scents Ointment: a protective and soothing salve enhanced with Tea Tree and Myrrh essential oils. The great thing about this salve is that it is so versatile! You can use it on pets, humans, and accessories!! (hint: if you love Rose Ointment but don’t want to spend the money, Animal Scents Ointment is a great substitute!)

How to use: Clean the affected area. Apply as needed. If using Young Living® essential oils, apply oils prior to application of Animal Scents™ Ointment.

Use on specific areas on your pet or yourself to support healthy skin.
If using essentials oils topically, use the oils first and then seal it with Animal Scents ointment. It will help to seal the oil in and nourish your skin at the same time.

Animals and essential oils

If your pet or animal has a medical issue, please consult with your veterinarian before administering essential oils.

When I say that essential oils can be enjoyed by the whole family, I mean the fur-babies too! Why should they be left out of the fun? But because our pets can’t tell us how oils make them feel, and are generally more sensitive to scents and oils than humans, we should proceed with caution and keep a few salient points in mind

Start by heavily diluting oils and using in moderation. For instance, use one drop of oil mixed with 4-5 drops of carrier oil. Monitor your pets reaction before proceeding further. For larger pets, decrease dilution as needed. Smaller animals should always be given a diluted dose.

Do not apply oils near a pets eyes, nose, mouth or other sensitive areas.

Do not use hot oils such as Wintergreen or Peppermint

Avoid using high-phenol oils such as Oregano, Clove and Thyme with any animals, especially cats. Also, cats are generally adverse to citrus oils.

The smaller the animal, the less oil you should use.

To acclimate your animal to the scents of essential oils, try diffusing or wearing the oils as you are near your pet.

to apply topically:

For cats and dogs, the paws and pads are a great place to start
For hooved animals, apply to spine or flank
Try rubbing oils on your hands and then stroking on your pets fur
For larger areas, try mixing with water or carrier oils and spraying on your animal. (Be careful around the eyes!)
Use Animal Scents Ointment to seal and protect any area where oils have been applied, if desired.
