Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

URGENT WARNING TO ALL CAT OWNERS: many of the essential oils used in diffusers are TOXIC to felines, including citrus, cinnamon, lavender, eucalyptus, tea tree, lemongrass, pine, cedar, and many more. ANY oils containing phenols cannot be processed by the liver of a cat (unlike humans) and are therefore toxic. Eucalyptus and tea tree oils are especially dangerous and cause organ failure! My cat is currently recovering from a 5-day vet hospital stay due to kidney failure caused by essential oils. She was hooked up to an IV for 5 days to flush her kidneys, and is now on antibiotics to fight secondary infection, steroids to induce appetite, and b complex/iron supplements to increase the protein in her blood which was lost during the 5-day IV flush. Diffusers create a build-up of oils on a cat's fur, which the cat then ingests when grooming/bathing itself. Oil can also be directly inhaled by the cat and collect on nearby furniture, carpet, and bedding, and then be transferred to the cat's fur and paws. To remove the oil build-up, I used my clothes steamer filled with half vinegar, half water to steam the furniture, and rag with a bowl of boiling water and vinegar for the carpet. This is a 5-star review because these diffusers are delightful for those without cats and are high quality. I will miss being able to use mine every day! The wood look is beautiful, and the colored lights are fun and function as mood lighting and night lights. Makes an outstanding gift (again, for those without cats).
