Good morning L& L!!!!
Say good bye to 2016 Hello 2017
Wishing everyone a Happy New Year!
Hoping Fritz will work the juice and get into lower numbers.
I'm trying to give him his homeopathic stuff with his insulin and 2 hours later his pred. It looks like the homeopathic along with the insulin lowers his # then the pred shoots his #'s up. I really don't like whats happening. I wont give up . Today I start his inhalation treatment. I'm a bit nervous because I read on the internet that the three oils she wants him breathing can be toxic to cats. I can't imagine her prescribing something that would hurt him. I tried to e-mail the manufacture never heard back from them. i called they said e-mail them

Thinking and praying for all the beans and their kitties!

I hope you can find a good balance with everything. What are the oils she wants you to use? I've read lavendar can build up in their system and be toxic. Sending prayers.

ETA: This article does say they can be used if diluted:
"In some circumstances, some can be used to treat certain ailments under a veterinarian's supervision if they are diluted;"

Thank you I did see that a lot of the holistic vets have researched toxicity in pets and that the traditional vets and improper use of pet owners usually are the ones that end up having trouble. I was afraid so I boiled the 2 cups of water placed two drops of each and set it on the counter and closed the door to the room he was laying in. The oils I use are not the cheap store version.

What are the oils she wants you to use?[/QUOTE
Eucalyptus Globulus , Pine and Hyssop all of which when I did my google search said not to use with cats. But like everything you need to research the controversy I discovered that most traditional vets are not educated in the homeopathy treatments.
I still want to be very careful

I think your vet wouldn't recommend it if it wasn't safe, but I just wanted to mention the articles I've read. I hope it helps Fritz breathe better.
