For years, pet owners have had to get rid of candles, wax melts, and other scented products in order to maintain a safe and healthy environment for their companions. Now, there’s finally a safe option for people who love their pets and enjoy having their homes filled with warm, pleasant scents.
We are excited to share with you the first odor-eliminating candles and wax melts that are truly safe for parrots and other pets — even when they’re in the same room.
Our non-toxic candles were developed with the assistance of Dr. Clubb, a leading avian vet based in Florida. She has analyzed each of the ingredients in our candles to ensure that they are safe for parrots and other exotic birds.
At Pet Safe Candles, we’re all about creating a cozy, inviting atmosphere that doesn’t compromise the health or safety of your furry, feathered, or finned family members. Your pets are cherished members of your family who deserve the very best. So, in addition to our line of parrot-safe candles, we’ve expanded to crafting a line of pet-safe candles that allow you to enjoy the ambiance and other scents that candles provide without worrying about the potential risks. Our candles place both pets and pet parents in mind, using ingredients that won’t harm your beloved companions.
Our pet-safe candles come in a variety of scents, from calming lavender to refreshing citrus, all carefully selected to be enjoyable for humans while being safe for pets. Every candle purchased from us is a step towards a safer, more pet-friendly home environment. Join us in celebrating the love for pets with every light of our candles.
Most candles contain ingredients that are toxic for birds. That’s because birds have highly efficient respiratory systems, and any chemical in the air will be absorbed by their bodies very quickly. Many unknowing bird owners have tragically lost their beloved pets by burning candles or using chemical air fresheners in their homes.
Regular candles often contain paraffin wax, which helps to throw the scent further and also drives the cost of the candle down. As many as 85% of “soy” candles actually have paraffin wax mixed in.
Most candles also contain UV blockers, which help the candle maintain its color. Some also contain phthalates, an odorless chemical that also helps to throw the scent.
Our candles and wax melts contain non-toxic ingredients that are safe for parrots and other birds living in your home, including finches, canaries, toucans, and more. They are also suitable for use near other pets, such as cats, dogs, small mammals, and reptiles. They’re even a better choice for people who suffer from respiratory issues.
Regular candles, unfortunately, can pose several risks to different types of common pets. Cats are highly curious creatures but have livers that cannot effectively metabolize certain compounds found in many candle scents and waxes. Phenol-based compounds in some scented candles can be particularly dangerous, causing liver failure or worse if inhaled or ingested over time.
For dogs, their keen sense of smell can be overwhelmed by the strong scents of regular candles. Additionally, some candle additives can also lead to health issues ranging from minor irritation to more severe conditions if ingested or inhaled frequently. Similar to birds, small mammals have sensitive respiratory tracts. The particulate matter from candle smoke and certain fragrances can cause respiratory distress or allergies.
The Avian Safe Candles that you can find in our store are 100% soy wax with ZERO harsh additives. That means:
Even the wick is made of 100% natural paper and soy, allowing for a much cleaner burn with fewer carcinogens released into the air compared to other wicks.
As for the fragrances, they are created with a combination of natural essential oils and synthetic aroma chemicals. While the individual components of the fragrance oils themselves are proprietary information, rest assured that they have been tested for safety — I use these candles around my own birds!
Our Avian Safe Wax Melts and candles are not only safer for birds, other animals, and people, but they are also better for the environment. Our non-toxic candles come packaged in a glass jar made with 70% recycled glass and an all-natural cork top. Beautiful, eco-friendly, safe candles — what more could you ask for?
