This is the recording of our monthly Q&A session where Drs. Jeff Feinman and Christina Chambreau join forces to tackle pet guardian questions.

In this session we covered a range of health topics, including:

• Jennifer adopted a 2-year-old rescue cat with limited health records. She plans to speak with her holistic vet about establishing a baseline for the cat’s health, including bloodwork and urinalysis, to monitor its condition going forward. Dr. Christina recommends using the Healthy Cat Journal to track the cat’s health and early warning signs.
• Melissa’s 10-year-old cat Poe has had slightly elevated SDMA levels in recent bloodwork, indicating early-stage kidney disease. Christina advises Melissa to find a holistic vet to work with, review the resources on the Holistic Actions! website, and consider dietary and supplement changes to support Poe’s kidney health.
• Nick’s 22-year-old cat with kidney disease has been eating strange things like silk plants, which can be an early warning sign of an underlying imbalance. Christina recommends exploring the cat’s diet, mental/physical stimulation, and energy healing modalities to address the root cause.
• Andrée’s 22-year-old rescue cat has had a history of urinating outside the litter box, which may be related to abandonment, grief, and aging. Christina suggests working with an animal communicator and trying various energy healing approaches to address the emotional and physical aspects.
• Dr. Christina summarizes the overall approach of Holistic Actions!, emphasizing the importance of addressing the underlying energetic imbalance, soothing symptoms, and using a variety of modalities like homeopathy, Chinese medicine, and energy work. She encourages participants to keep detailed journals, experiment with different treatments, and not discount older animals.
