While tea tree oil is known to be highly effective on its own, there may be instances when a person wants to dilute tea tree oil for cats or dogs for application. It can also be used as a preventive measure to keep pets from fleas if applied to their skin. Tea tree oil is used against a wide range of pathogens, as well as being an excellent anti-inflammatory agent. Many of its uses focus on improving skin conditions, acting as an antiseptic and killing bacteria, fungi, viruses and mites. At the same time, it can be toxic if not used correctly, so it’s advisable that you dilute the tea tree oil before use on your cat to ensure that neither you nor your kitty suffer from side effects. Tea tree oil is a wonderful product made from the leaves of the Melaleuca alternifolia tree; it’s been used for centuries to treat injuries and wounds. It’s also useful for a large number of ailments and has been proven effective against cancer cells in scientific experiments. However, dilute tea tree oil for cats is not recommended due to its toxic effects (it’s very toxic to pets) on both cats and dogs.

It is also critical that you test a small area on the back of your cat’s neck first before applying any diluted solution in order to make sure that they do not have an allergy towards it. If they are allergic, then you will see some redness and irritation at the site where you tested the product. This reaction would indicate that it was not safe for them so please discontinue use immediately! If there’s no visible reaction after testing though then go ahead and follow these instructions:

• Mix one part water with one part vegetable glycerin until well combined (about 5-6 parts water). Then add 5-6 drops of tea tree essential oil into this mixture until well blended together again (about 1 drop per tablespoon).
• Use an eye dropper or syringe filled with this solution when applying it directly on affected areas such as between their shoulder blades where fleas like hiding out most often due their sensitive nature around light sources being exposed there more often than other places like underarms/legs etcetera when grooming themselves regularly throughout daylight hours.)

Section: Dilute the tea tree oil with a neutral carrier oil such as olive or almond though not mineral or vegetable oils because they do not mix well with essential oils. Use a five percent dilution (1 tsp. of tea tree oil per 1 cup of carrier oil) for spot treatment of infested areas on your cat. You can also spray your cat’s bedding or its favorite resting spot with a dilution of one part tea tree oil to 10 parts water; this will provide residual protection against fleas as well as provide a pleasant scent.
