I know this has been a struggle. Have you tried feeding her other things besides the raw recently? Maybe add a topper? Is there something she likes better? I've had good luck with sprinkling Wysong DentaTreat on food. How many calories per gram are in the food you're using? (This info is...

I recommend this: Making Cat Food This is the recipe, but I highly recommend reading the rest of Dr. Pierson's info for all the how's and why's of making the food.

Some easy possibilities include flower essences, EFT, and Tellington TTouch. Things like WEBB, acupuncture, and chiropractic can be useful if there are physical imbalances. There are many calming herbs, but for a dog like Bhakti, you want to address the root of the problem, not just band-aid...

You still need to ask them, since we do not have a complete readout of what exactly how much of each nutrient is in it, what is missing, etc. When I was working with a formulator, the list of ingredients and nutrients ran to 11 pages of Excel workbook. Change one tiny thing, and changes cascaded...

As a backup Halo Ear Wash is okay, though I dilute it with water by 50% because the witch hazel can sting a bit.

Don't know if you remember, but Tonya was a vet school classmate of mine and was one of the four from our class who attended your weekend seminar in 1993, our Junior year!

I think yes, as well, but new info is coming all the time and I'm keeping a close eye on it!

Caution: do not use flower essences directly on the sores, they contain alcohol. Use on the paws, top of head, just get them into her energy body.

Hi Louise, well (of course) it depends. Here's what I can find in my research: You're right, it's not really a vaccine, and wouldn't carry the side effects of traditional vaccines, especially the adjuvanted ones. Adverse effects tend to be local and mild (injection site pain, redness...

I just posted our newsletter tonight. https://littlebigcat.substack.com/p/january-2025 One correction: I only gave Massachusetts, New York, and Maryland credit for having passed declaw bans. Virginia passed one, but it is so weak, watered down, and full of loopholes it doesn't count and I'm...

Just get the stool re-checked in a few weeks. It may take more than one treatment. But we definitely want those bad guys outta there!

The SP tablets are not particularly large but I guess it depends on your definition! They are pressed tablets, uncoated, and can readily be crushed. Of course, since boswellia, ginger and turmeric are all herbs, the same precautions apply. They are great for pain, but you don't take painkillers...

Remind me how old they are now? For nutritional joint support, like Omega-3 oil, hyaluronic acid or glucosamine, those can (and should) be given constantly and forever. Just having had my old arthritic joints x-rayed yesterday, it was a sharp reminder that they do not get better with time, and...

Good, glad he's eating better! He may have been fighting a bug along with the stress of moving. Getting a vet check is wise.

It may be wise to treat this as a total "new cat" situation since it is all new for him. The whole house may be too much for him. Try creating a base camp and introducing everything gradually: Base Camp -- How to Prepare for your New Cat | Little Big Cat - Dr. Jean Hofve Maybe try canned food...

All great suggestions, I would emphasize flower essences and EFT - simple and effective! Also add Play Therapy... anywhere a cat hunts becomes her safe territory. Here's all about it: Play Therapy | Little Big Cat - Dr. Jean Hofve

FF is a good transition food as Dr. Christina mentioned. It is not clean though, so moving to a better food would be your goal. I wonder if any of the frozen (e.g., Smalls) or freeze-dried raw diets (e.g., Stella & Chewy's, I know the other docs have their faves) would work for her. Those are...

If the food is complete and balanced according to normal standards then NO supplements are needed. Adding extra vitamins or minerals will absolutely undo that balance and can lead to toxicity. Products like Instinct and Alnutrin are meant to be added to plain meat and should NOT be used with a...

Great, will check it out when I have good internet in a few days.. Thanks!

Whatever is your preference… intuition, pendulum, finger ring technique, sway test…take your pick! Lots of info online!
