Are Wood Wyck Candles Safe for Pets?

At Wood Wyck Candles, we know that pets are family. Whether you have a curious cat, a lovable dog, or any other furry (or feathery) friend, their safety is a top priority. That’s why we’ve carefully crafted our candles using clean-burning, non-toxic ingredients that not only fill your home with beautiful scents but also keep your pets safe.

What Makes a Candle Pet-Safe?

Many traditional candles contain ingredients that can release toxins into the air, which may be harmful to pets and humans alike. At Wood Wyck Candles, we take extra care to ensure our candles are:

✅ Made with 100% Coco Soy Wax – Our candles are crafted from a premium blend of coconut and soy wax, which is all-natural, biodegradable, and non-toxic. Unlike paraffin-based candles that can release harmful chemicals, our coco soy wax burns cleanly, ensuring better air quality for you and your pets.

✅ Vegan & Cruelty-Free – We are committed to using plant-based, ethically sourced ingredients, meaning our candles contain no animal byproducts and are never tested on animals.

✅ Phthalate-Free Fragrances – Many synthetic fragrances contain phthalates, which can irritate your pet’s respiratory system. We use phthalate-free fragrance oils so you can enjoy delightful aromas without worry.

✅ Lead-Free Wicks – Our wicks are 100% lead-free, meaning they don’t emit harmful heavy metals into the air. This ensures a cleaner burn, making them a safer choice for both pets and people.

✅ Minimal Soot & Smoke – Excessive soot can contribute to air quality issues, especially for small pets with sensitive lungs. Our clean-burning coco soy wax is designed to produce minimal smoke and soot when used correctly.

Tips for Burning Candles Safely Around Pets

Even with pet-safe candles, it’s important to take extra precautions when using them around your furry friends:

🐾 Keep Candles Out of Reach – Curious pets may get too close to the flame or knock over a candle. Place them on high, stable surfaces where pets can’t reach.

🐾 Ensure Proper Ventilation – While our candles are free from harmful toxins, always burn them in a well-ventilated room to maintain fresh air circulation.

🐾 Never Leave Candles Unattended – Always extinguish candles when leaving a room, especially if pets are present. A wagging tail or a playful paw could accidentally tip one over.

🐾 Use Candle Alternatives When Needed – If you have particularly sensitive pets, consider using wax melts or reed diffusers from our soon-to-be collection for a flameless, worry-free option.
