Mozzie, my mad Bengal kitten, is very strange. I am just getting over flu with very bad sinuses, and use Olbas Oil to ease them. The thing is that Mozzie goes mad, and hyper purry for the stuff. Last night I put a few drops on my nighttop, and ended up fighting him off me for the majority of the time, until I was so tired I slept through his antics. Mostly he sniffs it, until his little nose wrinkles, and then he starts licking the stuff...or trying to. If he can't get to it, he will claw and bite me to access the Olbas Oil patch, all the while purring and dribbling madly. He also steals and eats anything minty, no matter how strong, and ate all my Victorian Bitter Mints, that I got at Christmas, that have a high percentage of mint oil. Is this normal ????
Also, as I woke up covered in cat dribble and smelling like cat breath, I know he must have licked my clothes, neck and face, that the oil was on, or had contact with. Is that harmful to him...the oil, I mean ???? Here is the stuff that I copied off the bottle :
What is in Olbas Oil?

How does Olbas Oil work?
Olbas Oil is a mixture of essential oils which gives off a vapour that helps clear congestion. It also acts as a counter-irritant, relieving pain when applied externally.

Olbas Oil is manufactured by the licence holder G. R. Lane Health Products Ltd., Sisson Road, Gloucester, England GL1 3QB, under licence from PO-HO-CO, Basle, Switzerland.
What is Olbas Oil used for?
Olbas Oil is a blend of pure plant oils originated in Switzerland for the relief of bronchial and nasal congestion, hayfever and minor infections of the respiratory tract by inhalation. Olbas Oil also relieves the symptoms of muscular pain and stiffness including backache, sciatica, lumbago, fibrositis and rheumatic pain by application to the skin.
Not suitable for babies under 3 months old. For inhalation and external use on unbroken skin only. Do not use if you are allergic to any of the ingredients.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
He also loves any other decongestants !!!
He can open properly closed doors, inspite of the fact that we have
round pull handles, and not the drop down lever ones, and he also is able to open the fridge and then the kitchen sliding door, so he is no longer shut in, safely at night, and is free to yowl the whole house down.
He is 12 months old (?) and is castrated. Any advice ????
Peace, Love, and Happiness, Always
