Pet Remedy diffuser/spray

[HollysKingdom]

Not sure if I should be starting a new thread, or adding this to the one about Bandit’s cystitis (Sterile Cystitis Questions)

Anyway, our vets have suggested using a Pet Remedy diffuser to help her be calm. I’ve had a look at the website and I’m not convinced; the essential oils in it (valerian, vetivert, clary sage, basil) don’t seem very piggyish to me.

Does anyone have any experience of using it?

It looks like there is a specific one for rabbits and guinea pigs.

So you want a guinea pig? Here's what you need to know - Pet Remedy, Pet Calming & Anxiety Relief

I love it, but I'm not sure if my piggies notice it. Valerian should have a calming effect. It's very pleasant and soothing (for me)

It looks like it contains the same ingredients, just in a spray form ...

Ah okay! I think they’re great for cats but not sure about the benefit for guinea pigs. I’ll ask Simon for his thoughts, next week.

Thank you guys I think I’m gonna buy a smallish spray to see what we think. Personally, I don’t like valerian in herb teas or the smell of clary sage. And I don’t like to use strong scents (laundry soap, perfume, hand cream, etc) around the piggies.
