How to offer essential oils

Hold the bottle firmly in your hand. (Some overzealous animals may try to grab the bottle, and some horses and dogs like to mouth the remedies that they’d like to ingest). Hold glass bottles completely so they can’t nibble the top. If you’re in a stable, don’t leave bottles lying around as horses can be curious. For cats, either offer just the lid or make sure the whole bottle including the top is covered by your hands, so there is no chance of the essential oil rubbing onto their coat. Take the lid off, holding the bottle 1-2 metres away from your animal. Remember your animal’s olfactory system is far more powerful than yours. The molecules are volatile so as soon as the lid is removed, the molecules are already in the air for them to smell. Wait to see if they respond. Respect a ‘no’ response at any time and remove the remedy. If there’s no ‘no,’ slowly move the bottle closer and observe again if there is a response. If he or she turns their head away, stay where you are. This is their optimum dose. If your dog or horse licks at the bottle, add one drop to the palm of your hand and allow him or her to lick it. For prolonged interest, for dogs and cats, place a drop of the oil onto a piece of cloth (allowing it to dry first) or on a piece of card like an aroma stick and allow them to choose to lay with the oil.
