Hey all,

 

I know from previous messages that oils are not a

really good idea for cats. My problem is that I have

a friend who's cat has a bad habit of urinating all

over, and it was recommended to her to use oil of

citronella and/or oil if wintergreen to make him stop.

(by sprinkling it where he tends to go). I feel

incomfortable with her doing this and told her I would

try to get more information for her. I would

appreciate to hear your opinions on this.

 

 

Thanks in advance.

Hi Lisa,

 

Since I use oils around my cats all of the time, I'm wondering why it

would be considered wrong. Plus, you're talking about using oils in

the places where the cat does his inappropriate urinating. Citronella

would be great, Birch - ok, how about Orange, too? The thing is, it

will take doing this several times daily, for at least 3 weeks - just

to break the habit. Does anyone give kitty a bit of catnip, just so

his feelings of well being are improved? Maybe he just plain doesn't

like the type of litter being used. This is not an uncommon problem.

My kitties let me know in no uncertain ways when I'm not pleasing

their needs.

 

Anyone else got some great ideas?

 

Wishing you well in all ways,

 

Lynn
