... Read moreถ้าใครกำลังหาข้อมูลเรื่อง “กลิ่นที่เป็นอันตรายกับแมว” เพราะอยากทำบ้านให้หอม/ดับกลิ่นสัตว์เลี้ยง แต่กลัวกระทบสุขภาพน้องแมว บอกเลยว่าคิดเหมือนเราได้เลยค่ะ เมื่อก่อนเราใช้ก้านหอมและน้ำมันหอมระเหยเป็นประจำ พอเริ่มเลี้ยงเหมียวถึงได้รู้ว่าแมวไวต่อสารบางชนิดมาก และการกระจายกลิ่นในบ้าน (โดยเฉพาะแบบ diffuser) อาจทำให้เค้าได้รับสารเข้มข้นกว่าที่เราคิด กลิ่น/น้ำมันหอมระเหยที่ควรเลี่ยงกับแมวที่เจอบ่อยๆ ได้แก่ Tea Tree, Peppermint, Cinnamon, Lavender และ Clove (รวมถึงกลิ่นแรงๆ แนวเมนทอล/สมุนไพร/เครื่องเทศ) เพราะมีสารประกอบที่แมวกำจัดออกจากร่างกายได้ไม่ดี บางบ้านใช้แล้วน้องเริ่มมีอาการผิดปกติแบบค่อยเป็นค่อยไปจนมองข้ามได้ง่าย อาการที่ควรสังเกตหลังบ้านมีกลิ่นหอมแรงๆ เช่น น้ำลายไหลมากผิดปกติ เลียปากถี่ๆ อาเจียน ซึม เดินเซ หายใจเร็ว/หอบ น้ำตาไหล จาม/ไอ หรือผิวหนังระคายเคืองถ้าเผลอโดนโดยตรง (บางตัวจะหนีไปหลบหรือไม่ยอมเข้าห้องที่เปิดกลิ่น) ถ้าเห็นอาการชัดเจนให้หยุดใช้ทันที เปิดหน้าต่างระบายอากาศ ย้ายแมวออกจากพื้นที่ และรีบปรึกษาสัตวแพทย์ โดยเฉพาะถ้ามีอาการทางระบบประสาทอย่างเดินเซหรือชัก จากประสบการณ์เรา “ความเสี่ยง” ไม่ได้มาจากแค่น้ำมันหอมระเหยแท้ๆ อย่างเดียว แต่รวมถึงสเปรย์ปรับอากาศ เทียนหอม ก้านไม้หอม น้ำยาถูพื้น/น้ำยาทำความสะอาดที่มีกลิ่นฉุนด้วย วิธีลดความเสี่ยงที่ทำแล้วเวิร์กคือ 1) หลีกเลี่ยงการเปิด diffuser ในห้องปิดหรือเปิดใกล้จุดที่แมวชอบนอน 2) ถ้าจำเป็นต้องใช้ให้ใช้ช่วงสั้นๆ และต้องมีทางให้น้องเดินออกจากห้องได้ 3) ห้ามทาน้ำมันหอมระเหยบนตัวแมวหรือใส่ปลอกคอกลิ่นหอม 4) เก็บขวดน้ำมันหอมระเหยให้พ้นมือแมว เพราะหกเลอะอุ้งเท้าแล้วเลียเข้าไปได้ ถ้าเป้าหมายคือ “ดับกลิ่นสัตว์เลี้ยง” แบบปลอดภัย เราแนะนำเน้นที่ต้นเหตุแทนการกลบกลิ่น เช่น ตักทรายแมวทุกวัน ล้างกระบะสม่ำเสมอ เลือกทรายที่คุมกลิ่นได้ดี เปิดหน้าต่างให้อากาศถ่ายเท ใช้เครื่องฟอกอากาศ และวางเบกกิ้งโซดา/ถ่านดูดกลิ่นในมุมอับ (ให้พ้นการคุ้ยเล่นของแมว) วิธีพวกนี้ช่วยให้บ้านหอมสะอาดโดยไม่ต้องเสี่ยงกับกลิ่นที่เป็นอันตรายกับแมวค่ะ
