The product says "it may help overcome parvo". Did you use it once the fourlegged obtained the dis-ease? Or for preventive measures?

I`ve sadly seen dogs in the throes of parvo and it is the most horrific, debilitating thing I`ve ever witnessed . I inoculate yearly for it as it`s prevalent here. Now they`re saying perhaps we`re over - inoculating our friends. Until I see proof that a dog is safe with less, I will continue to give them their shots and rely on nothing less than a proven prevention.. With diligence,I believe we can eradicate the nasty dis-ease.

my roommate went out and bought the herbs last week. she found everything except for fleabane. i ground up a small batch in a clean coffee grinder and have been sprinkling and combing little by little onto willard's back. the smell is quite powerful willard half closes his eyes when i come near him with the powder.

he displays anxiety by pulling out tufts of hair, particularly from his back side. ever since he has been living with me closely post-surgery, i've noticed that he's pulls out only a little bit and keeping fit with regular diet and play.

here's praying those fleas find another home.

Willard has eased up a lot with plucking fur since sprinkling the herb mix. Now he is profusely cleaning himself. We won't give him water baths because he hates water and could potentially get violent.

Thank you for asking. You are sweet.

Love,

The very short story is that we were treating suspected parvo, but our 18-month old fully vaccinated dog also became ill, as did the mother of the pups (who was also fully vaccinated). I actually rarely vaccinate, but I don't feel like getting into it all here ~ I've emailed you the full story, I hope that's okay.

Thank you so much for sharing it and I look forward to it!

Much love to your four leggeds. I trust they are full of energy & healthy now

The problem is this: she'll urinate on the blanket in the living room often and somtimes I'll find turds outside of her litter box.

I've taken her to the vet often for the urinating problem and sometimes it's been an infection (whereas they gave me antibiotics to give her and she got better), sometimes not.

I am patient with her, but my boyfriend, who means well, is up to his ears in this stuff. He's had it. I wish he could be more patient, but he is a dog person rather than a cat person and while my cat gives me oodles of love, she is very skiddish for no apparent reason and runs away from him whenever he moves.

Anyway, the doctor lately said that they will take blood tests to rule anything else out but also to think about anti-anxiety meds.

I thought, "huh?!"
I'm on a lot of anti-depression and anti-anxiety meds, I don't want my CAT to be. Does her being on anti-anxiety meds sound odd to you? Animals aren't supposed to be on such altering chemicals, are they?

The doctor suggested the anti-anxiety meds because my cat seems to get very hyper at night and yowl a lot. The hyper thing I think is cute, she runs all around and pounces on things...but the yowling is especially upsetting my boyfriend. Again - I WISH he could be more patient.

But it's hard to be patient when, on weekend mornings, you can hear her yowling for food and attention. and yes, we give her enough food. Since the dr. said to give her wet food, she can't get enough of it and is constantly asking for it.

Any suggestions would be great.

No anti-anxiety meds! If all tests come back ok, get Bach Rescue Remedy.It is a miracle flower essence for trauma & acute anxiety. You can find it in any good herbal shop. Our kitties are such stinkers when they`re upset and won`t clue us in. So dern independent! I use it for all leggeds and is the best, most natural and safest product.A must to have on hand for the household.

Hrmmm, give the boyfriend some doses too and he`ll get over his frustration as well.

Let us know how kitty is doing & how boyfriend is adjusting. Kudos to him for working thru the turds & puddles .
