So, I want to make a little hanging litter box deodourizer that is basically baking soda in some filter paper that hangs near the litter box. Sort of like a homemade version of those baking soda fridge things you can buy. I used to do this with my cloth diaper pails and it kept them smelling much fresher.
One thing I also did was to add a few drops of a nice-smelling essential oil, such as lavender oil, to the baking soda and shake it around. That's basically what those "pet deodourizers with baking soda" are. I'm allergic to pretty much all artificial fragrances and perfumes, but most natural products derived from plants don't bother me. I hate most things that are "scented", as do most cats it seems. That's why most people advise against scented cat litters, after all. So, I'm wondering if there's a natural scent that humans like that cats like, too.
So what are the essential oils that smell nice to humans and cats?
