Is Geranium Oil safe for cats and dogs?
If you’re unsure how to use essential oils of any kind around your pet, it’s best to check in with your vet. It’s important to remember to diffuse oils in small amounts around your animal, and to turn off your diffuser when you’re leaving him or her alone in the house. Geranium is known to be safe for cats and dogs, but it’s always better to play it safe by consulting your veterinarian first. That way you can keep breathing easy.
