Although  there has been limited to no research done on the effects of Aromatherapy for pets, just like humans care should be used and a consult with your vet is advised.  Also as with humans topical application is not advised for some oils and the oils that are ok must and should be diluted.  Since oils are derived from plants, as we know animals are very sensitive to some plants if ingested can cause gastrointestinal issues and even be fatal.  Everything that may be ok with us does not apply to our furry friends, hence again consult your vet before considering any use.
