Weekly Wellness Tip: Try Essential Oils with Your Pets


Sara Kenney, LMT, LE, Animal Care Specialist, recommends using essential oils with your pets, much as you might use them for you and your family. Lavender is excellent to to calm and aid restless puppies. Place a drop or two on their feet (not right on the pads.) When traveling with cats, put a few drops of lavender on a cotton ball and drop that into the cat carrier. Lavender can also be used to treat insect bites, burns, and hot spots on pets.
