Essential oils usually used in aromatherapy
have been found to kill the deadly
MRSA
bacteria according to research carried out at
The University of
Manchester.
Tests revealed that three essential oils killed
MRSA and E. coli as well as many other bacteria and fungi within just two
minutes of contact. The oils can easily be blended and made into soaps and
shampoos which could be used by hospital staff, doctors and patients in a bid to

- The Natural Way is the Actual Way!
It’s that time of year again. Time for us to get ready for the summer explosion
of the kitten and puppy population. Next to the holiday season, this is the time
of year when many people decide to bring a new pet into their home. It’s time
for their clumsy skittering across our kitchen floors and an unfortunate influx
of hungry cries on America’s streets and alleyways. According to the American
Humane Association, 64% of animals that enter shelters in the United States are
euthanized, which equals 2.7 million in a national survey which involved 1,000
shelters. Sadly, about 20% more cats tend to be euthanized than dogs because
cats are more likely to enter a shelter without owner identification.

- Get Your Pet Safely Through a Storm
What causes fear of storms
and other noises?
It is unknown why some pets become afraid of
noises; it is a common problem in dogs, but less so in cats. The fear can soon
become a phobia, which is defined as A persistent, excessive, and irrational
fear response. In the case of thunderstorms, pets may also be fearful of
storm-associated events such as a change in barometric pressure, lightning,
electrostatic disturbances, and even smells associated with the storms. Noise
phobias can include fear of thunderstorms, firecrackers, gunshots, and even
the sound of birds.

- Ear Factor
Now that Spring has returned and our pets are once again rolling around in the
grass, swimming in ponds, going for long investigative walks or even lying at an
open sunny window, we should think of the ears as being a furry magnet for dirt,
bugs, fungus and just about any other thing that floats in the air, lies deep in
the carpet or hugs the tall green grass.
