My pet just got hurt, what to do……Essential oil emergency kit for animals
When your out on the trail and something happens, what do you do? The nearest veterinary clinic is miles away and it is a Saturday afternoon or Sunday. A kit of essential oils maybe the answer.
This is a simple list of some of the most common essential oils that can be carried along with a pet owner. The list is the oils that cover the most conditions in the least number of bottles.
The list is not all conclusive and the many other oils can be substituted if another essential oil is more tolerated. The kit can be used on all pets. With the proper dilution all pets can benefit from the wonderful essential oils that nature has given us.
The Kit:
PURIFICATION The blend is useful for external parasites such as fleas, ticks, and moquitos. It provides protection from infectious agents as well. For any area that has ticks this is important because of the ease of transmission
and the number of ticks carrying disease.
