Hi Sheena! Wow you have a lot going on! I had a cat with Addison's, so I understand what you're going through! One thing I found to be very important for him was raw meat, in particular steak cut up small (he also had hemophilia so getting a lot of iron into him to combat the anemia was...

I answered this in the other thread, but I am fine with HPP. Safety first!

I don't personally have a problem with HPP, and in the current environment, I am glad they're making that decision. Customer opinions are far less important than science and safety!

Yes, grief can be deep and long-lasting. Ignatia is a great remedy for that but you're right to check with Dr. Herman. You might also consider EFT/Tapping: EFT Tapping for Animals | Little Big Cat - Dr. Jean Hofve

Hi Keath! Thanks for posting about Ruta! In the wild, once kittens are weaned, they eat the same diet as every other adult cat, for their entire lives. I wouldn't be too concerned about "early" kidney issues, IMO it's more important to feed good quality protein and high moisture, which is what...

Absolutely, cats grieve. This flower essence formulas was made specifically for this kind of situation: jacksongalaxy.com/products/loss-solution?_pos=3&_psq=gri&_ss=e&_v=1.0 (You can take it too, as I know this has been very hard on you as well, or just spritz it all around the house to raise...

Sometimes you *do* have to "start over" with the introduction, especially if it was rushed or the cats did not themselves set the pace. This is the protocol. Re-introductions may become necessary for many reasons. (See Redirected Aggression: A Case Study | Little Big Cat - Dr. Jean Hofve)...

Oh, Keath, sorry to hear that, but we knew it was coming. I'm glad I could help ease his last days. Love you lots, and sending big hugs!

As far as I know zeolite is okay, though I don't know what it will do for a vaccine. Not every cat (or even most cats) will react badly to the vaccine. Here is a protocol for preventing reactions here: Preventing Vaccine Adverse Effects | Little Big Cat - Dr. Jean Hofve

Here's a pretty good summary: . As your cat gets older, it may become important to have a box on every level of the house, since arthritis may discourage much going up and down stairs. Lining up several litter boxes in one place is kind of wasted, but there should be at least 2 in a house with...

Because respiratory issues in cats almost always viral, and the culprit is usually herpesvirus, I would especially recommend the amino acid l-lysine. The liquid immune supplement doesn't contain enough (only 500 mg per 2 ml). You'd have to give double that, and I don't know how many...

Hi, this is interesting food but obviously not a balanced diet, nor does it claim to be. Rabbit is notoriously deficient in taurine, and ruminants (lamb, venison, beef) are lower than other meats, so you definitely want to add it. A cat requires about 100 mg per day total. You can't overdo it...

Peroxide is great to knock down the surface bacteria contaminating a fresh wound. But only use it once for the initial cleaning. Continued use disrupts the fibroblasts and skill cells that will be working to heal the wound.

Hope you started with the tiniest bit, gotta be sneaky with cats! Maybe take a break and atart again with teeny amounts and very gradually increase. The other general supp I recommend is Completer Gut Health from Only Natural Pet.

I don’t know what is available or can be shipped to Norway, see catinfo.org to see what supplements are needed. You can then compare what you can get with that recipe.

My latest newsletter from Little Big Cat is posted on Substack! It's for a more general audience than you sophisticated holistic readers, but my approach is to gradually edge people in our direction! :) It's free, so c'mon down, comment, and help me educate more folks about holistic care for...

Hi Matthew, this is a very common condition and often brought on by stress. Now that he's back home and feels safer it should start resolving. Buprenorphine is the most effective painkiller but it can be sedating since it is an opioid. Pain relief is the most important thing here. The other is...

I will be out of range for a while but the other docs can help!

Onsior is fine. I usually use clindamycin as t gets more mouth bugs but either is ok!
