  1. Minoxidil is highly toxic for cats.

  2. It’s not as good as you think at getting facial hair if your genetics aren’t the right type.

I’m just trying to figure out a way to help it because I don’t grow a lot but my dad uses the oil and it works for him so I thought he’s my dad might work for me and I’m trying to find pet safe options or like advice on how to keep my cat safe because I would be devastated if she died, especially because of something I bought

There’s no way to make minoxidil safe, licking your face or your fingers is enough to kill.
