Pet safe candles?

18 15:01:48

Question
I love to burn incense, candles, and tarts. But I am worried they may not be safe for my pet birds.
Is there any type of scented burners that are safe for birds and other pets? Or am I just out of luck?

Answer
kayla, thanks for being so concerned about your bird. Be sure not to use teflon pans to cook it. That is toxic.

Some birds and some incense can have problems, but I am not enough of a bird expert to know. Some cats can be sensitive to these, too.

To really have your birds live a really long and healthy life please call Dr. Ramelmeier who uses homeopathy and holistic approaches and specializes in birds. 410-531-9213
