Directions for internal infections and conditions: Drip directly into the side of your pets mouth or hide in food or tuna water. For fussy cats, drip it on top of their paw or back and they should lick it off when grooming. Protect furniture and clothing from oil stains if using this method.
Dosage: See label for details.
Directions for dental health: Drip 1 or 2 drops of OregaPet Oil of Oregano onto toothpaste. Repeat daily.
Dosage for cats: The amount of oil used needs to be in proportion to the size and weight of the animal. While 15 drops a day may be perfect for a 150 lb. person it would be 10 times less or 1 drop for an animal that is 5 - 15 lbs. For cats, this drop or two should be added to a ½ cup of cat food or tuna water. This method will allow your cat to choose if they want the essential oil or not.
Dr. Moira Drosdovech describes another method which can be accomplished by dripping the Oregano Oil on the back of their paw, which a cat is sure to lick off. Try this method if you have a finicky cat. A small percentage of cats may drool foam (similar to spitting for humans) if they don't like the taste. If this happens, return to diluting it in tuna water or food to improve palatability.
Cats, Essential Oils & Phenols: While many individuals have used oil of oregano for their cats successfully and without incident we recommend consulting with a Holistic Veterinarian prior to use.
Additional Notes: Many veterinarians believe that a healthy digestive system is a key foundation for a healthy animal, maximizing the potential for a long life, free from many related diseases. Use OregaPet Oil of Oregano regularly to support your pet's digestive system in their battle to stay parasite and infection free.
Good dental health can prolong your pet's life! Mississippi State University reports that dental care helps pets live longer happier lives. Dental disease prevention may save your pet's teeth and prevent further health problems. For example, bacteria that cause gum diseases and their by-products can travel through the blood, blocking or damaging blood vessels that lead to the heart or brain causing heart attack, stroke or other types of cardiovascular disease.
Are you keeping pets (and children!) safe from Salmonella poisoning? Salmonella food poisoning causes severe sickness and over 600 deaths each year in North America. Five-year-old children are five times more likely to contract Salmonella poisoning. Investigators feel that this may be due to contact with pets who get infected with Salmonella from contaminated food and smoked treats. Protect your pet with OregaPet Oil of Oregano to help reduce risk of infection.
Additional support: Eliminate access to garbage, compost, feces, stagnant water and high risk animals. Use OregaPet Bed & Body Spray for topical infections / infestations as well as OregaPet Ear Drops to deter invaders that attack sick pets.
