The reason no one has answered is possibly because we are not sure about the cats. I understand the phenols but we have no alcohol in our oils so that cannot be a problem. I do have a friend who uses the serenity on her high strung cat but really don't know much else. I do know that it is okay for horses and a moist towel with a drop of breathe or serenity would help in times of fire and/or anxiety. I know of a friend with hamsters who would freak out when the cat came up to the cage. Putting an open bottle of balance (small sample bottle) next to the cage kept the hamsters happy, but even more interesting is it kept the cat from jumping on the table.
You can muscle test your cats. Open a bottle of oil that you think might help them and see if the cat will come to you. I know this is hard because cats are known not to come when called. However if the cat will come to you, then chances are the oil is okay for them.

P.S.I have been finding some research saying essential oils are toxic to cats. I have asked the everythingdoTERRA community their thoughts on this, but will no reply. Be careful using oils on your animals as they are smaller with a waaaay more powerful sense of smell than us, some vets say cats can't not metabolize the phenols and alcohols in some oils like we can so they can build up a toxicity. I guess just do some research before using oils on cats.Arin

I took a bandana and soaked in cold water (it was super hot outside) placed a drop of breathe and held it up to the dogs muzzle. It really helped. Also lavender or Serenity can help them calm down if it is making the animals anxious.Arin--

We are having a big fire here in Tehachapi. Question: Has anyone used Breathe on animals, dogs, cats or horses? We've lost 40 homes and this is horse country. Please let me know. Thank you!
