I should also add that more and more information is coming out about essential oils even though there are very few professionals getting paid to research it.

And GENERALLY speaking essential oils do not belong on pets - especially cats.  Your individual pet may have exceptions but these are very strong scents that small bodies aren't used to dealing with yet and pets can be made sick with essential oils.

If you want I can hunt down some links.
