[Everything doTERRA] Re: CATS

I was on holidays and missed this thread... I concur with the comments
here re oils and cats. Shelley, great comments on the thyroid issues
and cats. While cats and dogs and humans are all mammals, we are
biologically and metabolically different. By the way, a lot of the
original research on essential oils was done with animals (dogs and
horses especially). If you are using oils with your animals, please
purchase a good textbook on the topic and learn the associated safety
issues. Proceed with common sense and moderation... and do continue to
consult with your veterinarian!
