Essential Oils And Cats

[Guest guest]

Please be aware that many Essential oils damage the livers of cats even

if only used as aromatherapy.

" Cats are known to be deficient in their ability to eliminate compounds

through hepatic glucuronidation (they lack enzyme glucuronyl

tranferases). Glucuronidation is an important detoxification mechanism

present in most animals except cats. Lack of this important

detoxification mechanism in cats may result in slower elimination and

thus build up of the toxic metabolites in the body causing toxicity

problems. "
