Eucalyptus is a plant that is known for its refreshing scent and uses in helping to relieve sinus and chest congestion for humans. You may be wondering, “is eucalyptus safe for pets” and if eucalyptus can have the same benefits for our furry friends.
There are various factors that come into play to determine an answer to this question and it will depend on factors such as the source, concentration, dose, and how pets are exposed to this herb. The truth is that eucalyptus (Eucalyptus spp.) has many benefits for pets and humans, however, just like any natural product, eucalyptus in high dosage can be harmful (for both pets and humans).
Eucalyptus is a natural antiseptic and reduces inflammation of the respiratory mucosa, so it is excellent support for bronchitis and asthma due to its decongestant properties.
It also has common uses for flea prevention since it has anti-itch, antiparasitic, antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, antispasmodic, antifungal, and antiseptic properties. It also deodorizes skin, heals wounds, smells pleasant, nourishes skin and coat, soothes skin allergies, and boosts hair growth.
When diluted, Eucalyptus oil does not irritate the skin, but it can be toxic especially when swallowed, so always use products formulated specifically for your little ones to prevent any possible incidents with this potent herb.
When diluted, Eucalyptus oil does not irritate the skin, but it can be toxic to pets especially when swallowed.
Essential oils are extracts of plants with a large amount of volatile oil (easily evaporated at normal temperatures) and have become increasingly popular in recent years. Eucalyptus oil is one of the more popular essential oils. These oils are extracted and concentrated by distillation or cold pressing and they may be sold on their own or used in other products. They can also be found in a wide range of concentrations. Products containing essential oils can contain 1-20% of them in their composition. However, some of these products can go as high as 100% concentration of essential oils. Direct exposure, especially to higher concentration oils, can lead to dangerous cases of intoxication.
Studies have shown that cats, dogs, birds, rabbits, guinea pigs, and hamsters can be susceptible to certain essential oil toxicities. Factors such as the supplier quality, the type of oil, method of use, concentration, and individual sensitivities play a role in the risk of essential oil toxicity, so never apply concentrated essential oils such as Eucalyptus oil directly to your pet, never feed them with concentrated Eucalyptus oil, and never leave oils in areas where your pet may come into direct contact with them.
Avoid the use of Eucalyptus essential oils in a diffuser in households with pets with asthma, allergies, or similar conditions, and keep pets out of rooms with a high concentration of essential oils (fresh paint thinner, recently washed floors, or high concentration oils in diffusers).
Another essential thing to consider is to always pay attention to signs of toxicity in your pets. These signs will depend on the dose and type of oil, but often include dullness or lethargy, wobbly or trouble walking, weakness, tremors, seizures, drooling, vomiting, red areas on the skin, trouble breathing, coughing, cold body temperature, and slow heart rate. Call a clinic immediately if you see any concerning signs as mentioned above.
Eucalyptus oil is safely present and diluted in the formula for our topical spray, Coco Furcare.
