I do not know any holistic veterinarian in the area, can I use my regular vet? |
 |
 |
Keep in mind, veterinarians are equals of human doctors. They prescribe drugs and good at fixing bones and emergencies. We absolutely need them, just in case.
For all other issues your kitty may have or develop, try holistic practitioner first. They are less expensive and the methods they use are chemical-free, pain-free, though very effective, and fast-working. Go to a regular vet for tests, x-rays, diagnosis and such, and when you have all the findings, take them to your holistic veterinarian to look over and suggest a treatment plan if needed. That's what I do.
I find that success rate using natural remedies is higher than traditional drug-induced therapies in case of many chronic dysfunctions, allergies, anxiety, lack of focus and aggression.
I am not a medical practitioner but a pet nutrition consultant at my current job, and I love coming to work! I own a pet health store and work with many pet owners who "hit the wall" trying to treat their animal in a conditional way. People see that they invest a lot - time and money, but the results are not delivered.
I studied several alternative methods and can assure you - they do work.
In my experience, using
Rescue Remedy
on a stressed animal works in seconds. Homeopathic remedies are very effective on cats and dogs. Pets respond very well to chiropractic adjustments, herbal remedies, hydrotherapy and such.
Yes, you can use a regular vet but there is a another, safer and less invasive option you need to be aware of.
Many natural and holistic remedies are available in online stores, as well as useful books on the subject. Feel free to check them out!

Can't I feed my cat dry kibble food? |
 |
 |
There are several brands of dry food on the market now that I can trust and approve for feeding to my cats and kittens. All of them are grain free (no rice, corn, wheat, barley, etc.) and high in meat protein (not plant protein like wheat gluten or soy).
Meat content must be 35% or higher. Claims that high protein causes kidney problems are wrong. Cats thrive for thousands of years on raw meat what is at least 60% of protein. It is quality of protein, not quantity what makes the difference. When protein is poor quality, something the body of a carnivore animal cannot digest, it gets flushed out of the system in larger quantities, and that may strain the kidneys, causing problems and inflammation later.
If protein gets digested it goes into the system and gets utilized by a body verses being flushed out.
Dry cat food is available all the time for my cats to nibble on. Cats do not overeat because these brands are not only highly nutritious, they are free from additional flavors and taste enhancers and cats eat just enough to feel full. The consumption is half comparing to the commercial foods full of fillers and waste that was overcooked, flavored and sometimes colored. Therefore, feeding natural high quality grain free foods saves you money on food, and on litter. Since the waste is minimal and almost odorless, you do not need a whole lot of litter to buy.
If you buy a kitten or a cat from us at some point, the best brands of dry foods will be listed in your contract. Companies sometimes screw up their formulas, or get sold to larger commercial company, so I simply can't give the current list here. Things change very quick in the pet food industry.
For new cat owners I offer a starter pack, designed to make the adjustment period easy for your new kitten. Later, consider shopping at a local privately owned pet store where the owners are usually very knowledgeable about the foods they sell.
Since I myself own a pet health store, I sell the best foods I can find on the market. To see the brands that are for sale in my store - and all of these brands I feel comfortable feeding to my cats - visit Healthy Products online store
Other online stores that sell high quality foods are listed below. Look for no-grain varieties. Some also sell freeze-dried foods that are convenient to use.
