With foes in front, and foes in our rear, our journey is like to be one of danger.
Many plants have scents cats hate. There are some smells that cats just hate. You may want to avoid these smells or use them to your advantage. Utilize scents to keep kitty out of your new houseplant or to save your favorite sofa from being scratched. Lemons, limes and oranges are all scents that cats hate. For an easy way to use these smells around the house, try a dab of orange oil. If you are trying to deter cats from coming into your garden, try scattering your discarded orange peels throughout the area.
Cinnamon bark should be avoided for the health of your cat. In very small quantities, ground cinnamon is safe enough in cats. Some may even enjoy the taste of a little powdered cinnamon, though most cats seem not to like the odor. Do not allow your cat to ingest more than the smallest amount of cinnamon. In larger quantities, cinnamon may induce vomiting. Cinnamon, like peppermint and other herbs, can have a variety of effects on cats.
