About NATPAT

What is NATPAT?

NATPAT is a holistic health and wellness brand that specializes in making natural health products for children. The company was founded in 2020 by parents looking for a natural way to treat minor health ailments, like allergies, sleep, and anxiety, and provide outdoor protection from insects. To do this, they created stickers infused with essential oils that are scientifically proven to reduce symptoms and protect against outdoor invaders.

While the brand primarily focuses on wellness patches for humans, they also have a few products for furry family members, including Pet Tick Repellent Stickers and Pet Zen Vapor Stickers.

Which Types of Pets Are NATPAT’s Products Best Suited For?

NATPAT designs their products for dogs and cats of all breeds and sizes. They have two different kinds of patches for pets–stress-relieving patches and tick-repellent patches. So if you’re searching for a non-toxic tick repellent or looking for a holistic way to relax your pup, these are a great option.

Key Features

Finding natural products for your pup can be hard, especially when so many of them contain chemicals that can be toxic. Luckily, NATPAT’s pet patches work wonders to keep your fur baby protected and calm without using harmful chemicals.

What to Expect

The patches are easy to use and only take a few minutes to apply. Simply peel a patch off the sticker sheet and stick it into the Pet Locket. The Pet Locket has a little door that opens and the sticker fits perfectly inside. After the sticker is inside, snap the door back onto the locket and you’re all set.

You can also apply the patches directly onto your pet’s collar or harness if you’d like. Once the sticker is on your pet, its effects will last up to eight hours. For maximum benefit, NATPAT recommends applying one patch on small pets and two patches on medium and large pets.

How it Works

The patches are made with AromaWeave technology, which is a biodegradable bamboo fiber that holds and diffuses essential oils. When you place a patch on your pet, the technology slowly releases the aroma of the essential oils over several hours so your furry friend consistently benefits from the oils throughout the day (or night).

Since the essential oils in NATPAT’s patches are scientifically proven to calm the nervous system and ward off bugs, when you place them on your pet, the aroma is either detected by your pup to keep them calm or detected by ticks to keep them away.

Ingredients

There are a lot of pet products on the market that have a long list of hard-to-pronounce ingredients with an even longer list of side effects, so it’s always reassuring to find brands committed to quality, safety, and clean ingredients.

One of the best things about NATPAT is they only use natural ingredients in their products. This means you don’t have to worry about your pup breathing in chemicals or absorbing toxins through their skin.

The Pet Zen Vapor Stickers are made with the following ingredients:

The Pet Tick Repellent Stickers are made with the following ingredients:

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

How long do the patches last once the package is open?

The patches are best used within six months of opening as long as they’re stored in their original resealable bag.

Where are the patches made?

All of NATPAT’s patches are designed and made in Australia.

NATPAT stands by their products. If you use the patches as directed and they don’t work, you can contact NATPAT’s customer service team for a full refund.

Our Reviews of the NATPAT Products We Received

1. Pet Zen Vapor Stickers

Whether your dog is afraid of thunderstorms or has a hard time settling down, NATPAT’s Zen Vapor Stickers work wonders at reducing anxiety anytime your furry friend needs a little extra zen.

The patches are made with a specially formulated blend of essential oils, like lavender and clary sage, which are known for reducing stress. When the aroma is detected by the receptors in your pet’s nose, calming messages are sent to their nervous system and limbic system (the part of the brain that controls behavior and emotions) to help them relax.

The Zen Patches come in four colors–yellow, blue, green, and pink–and each sticker sheet has six uniquely designed patches on it. The patches are soft and bendable and have a soothing earthy scent that’s strong enough to be effective without being overpowering.

One pack has 24 stickers (four sheets) and costs $19.00. You can also buy a bundled pack for a discounted price.

2. Pet Tick Repellent Stickers

As a pet parent, you know the importance of protecting your furry friend from ticks. Between tick-borne diseases and bite infections, these aren’t bugs you want to mess around with. Luckily, NATPAT has the perfect product to keep your pet safe from the great outdoors.

NATPAT’s Tick Repellent Patches are infused with a blend of essential oils that interfere with a tick’s chemoreceptors. Since ticks find pets by picking up on their scent, the essential oils overpower the scent your dog emits to make them invisible to outdoor invaders. It’s important to note that although this combination of essential oils has been found to repel insects and arachnids, it does not kill ticks and should not be relied on to prevent tick-borne disease.

Similar to the Zen Patches, the Tick Patches come in four colors–yellow, blue, green, and pink–with six different designs. They have a soft, felt-like texture and are easy to peel off the pad and stick to your pet. The essential oils smell great too! Unlike traditional bug spray, the oils don’t have a strong citronella smell. Instead, they have a mild scent that actually smells good.

One pack has 48 stickers (eight sheets) and costs $19.00. Like the Zen Stickers, you can buy a bundled pack for a discounted price.

3. Pet Locket

NATPAT’s Pet Locket is exactly what the name suggests–it’s a locket for your pet! As NATPAT’s designated sticker holder for furry family members, the Locket is designed to attach to your dog’s collar to keep the patches safe and secure during everyday use.

Similar to a pet ID tag, the Locket clips onto your pet’s collar so they can wear it wherever they go. But unlike a traditional tag, the Locket has a removable door that opens so you can place a patch inside. Once you place a sticker inside, you can reattach the door and clip it onto your pet.The Locket is designed with a closed backing on one side and open grates on the other. The open grates allow the essential oils to release their aroma over several hours for long-lasting effects.

Pet Lockets are sold separately from the Pet Stickers and cost $12.50.

Our Experience With NATPAT

Holistic pet products can be hard to come by, especially if you’re looking for ones that aren’t food-based. My dog, Micah, has a hard time tolerating oral supplements and medications, so I was eager to try NATPAT’s Pet Tick Repellent Stickers and Pet Zen Vapor Stickers since they work aromatically.

The products arrived in a super cute envelope covered in colorful characters and fun designs and the patches themselves are adorable. Each sticker has a different animal cartoon printed on it and the sticker sheets are all different colors.

The first product I tested was the Tick Repellent Stickers. Every year, I take precautions for ticks, but I’ve never had an issue with them or found one on Micah. Fast forward to this summer and I found three on Micah’s head. Needless to say, after finding one tick on him, I was checking his fur every time he came in from outside and searching for the best natural tick repellent on the market.

Luckily, it was around this time when NATPAT’s Tick Repellent Stickers arrived. Since Micah is a larger dog (54 lbs), I put two patches on him (as recommended by NATPAT), and so far so good. Micah has been tick-free since wearing the patches, and it gives me peace of mind knowing he’s safe outdoors.

One of my favorite things about the tick patches is the mild scent. A lot of tick repellents smell strongly of citronella, and I didn’t want Micah smelling like bug spray all day. After opening the package, I was relieved to find out the stickers had a mild, woody scent that didn’t smell like citronella at all.

Next, I tried the Zen Stickers. Micah is an active boy who needs a lot of mental and physical stimulation. Because of this, he can have a hard time winding down. He also gets very excited when he greets people and pets, so I was curious to see how these would work to calm his restless energy.

A few minutes after putting the stickers on him, he settled down and was noticeably calmer. I was surprised by how fast they worked and they’ve been perfect to put on Micah during the day for social activities and in the evening to help him mellow out before bed. They also smell amazing. Sometimes essential oils are a little too potent, but these have a softer, earthy scent with hints of lavender and vanilla.

While you can stick the patches directly on your pet’s collar, NATPAT also makes Pet Lockets to hold the stickers. Each locket comes with a cage-like door that detaches so you can stick a patch inside. There’s even a gap in the locket for easy removal. The door can be a little challenging to open but overall, it worked really well. Once the patch is secure, you re-attach the door and you’re good to go. Such an ingenious design and I loved using them for Micah!

What Our Vet Says

When it comes to dealing with ticks and tick borne disease, there are no homeopathic or natural products that can both kill ticks and be safely used on pets. The NATPAT Tick Repellent Stickers may help deter ticks from choosing your dog as their next meal, but they cannot provide the same level of protection as products that have been specifically formulated to kill ticks. Natural tick repellents may be a good option for dogs that are not regularly exposed to ticks, but if you are in an area with high tick density, particularly if there are risks of deadly tick paralysis or infectious diseases like Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever, Lyme Disease, or Ehrlichiosis, you need to use something stronger.

Conclusion

NATPAT refers to their patches as “stick on superpowers”, and this couldn’t be more accurate. These stickers might be small, but they pack a powerful punch when it comes to deterring bugs and calming your pet.

I love using NATPAT’s Pet Patches on Micah to protect him from ticks and help him relax, and the Pet Locket is the perfect way to keep the stickers on him throughout the day. These really are little miracle patches, and I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a holistic remedy to help their pet.
