Cat - Naturally Animals Products

Cats are sensitive and intelligent animals who independently make up their own minds very quickly about what medicinal herbs they will select and why.  In terms of how to offer our selection of medicinal herbs, it is important to never force an aroma or oil onto a cat.  Cats lack an enzyme in the body that allows them to easily get rid of toxins from the body.  Therefore, if they are unable to self select herbs or oils for themselves and run away from the aroma if they do not want them, this could lead to a toxic build up in their body and you may not be helping to improve their condition.  It will also make them very unsure of trying other herbs and oils you may offer at a later date. Due to the sensitivities of offering essential oils to cats, this should only be done by (or under the supervision of) a trained zoopharmacognosy practitionner.

Nevertheless, if a cat selects a particular remedy, they are able to cope with that selected remedy as their body is selecting it to rebalance the body.

The macerated oils in our cat selection of herbs mimic what a cat would find in the guts of the animals they would kill in the wild.  The macerates are taken orally and benefit the body in a number of ways (please see individual oils for more information).

Instructions

Place a little of the dried herbs on a towel and allow your cat the option of smelling or rolling in the herb to release the aroma and medicinal properties. Cats are very intelligent and if they do not require the aroma and medicinal benefits they bring, they will not go near the herbs you place in their surroundings.

For the macerated oils, slowly approach your cat at a time when it is quiet.  If it turns its head away at any time this is an indication that they do not require that remedy.  Normally the macerates are licked by the cat.
