Our Natural Anti-Histamine For Dogs And Cats Has Many Benefits

AllerEaze is an all-natural pet allergy supplement combining Quercetin and Nettles.  It has many anti-inflammatory and antihistamine benefits for pets.  AllerEaze helps control symptoms of seasonal environmental allergies in your pet  such as itching, scratching and eye tearing.  

AllerEaze is also helpful for cats with stomatitis,  an autoimmune condition where cats develop an allergic reaction to the plaque in their mouth.  This painful disease results in red inflamed gums and mouth ulcers.  Stomatitis is also referred to as "Teeth Plaque Allergy" so feeding cats a hypoallergenic diet along with using  natural antihistamine AllerEaze to control the allergic response can help.  

AllerEaze can help dogs with mast cell tumors because the quercetin suppresses the dog's histamine release.  Many dogs get recurring tumors so using the AllerEaze as a natural antihistamine along with a hypoallergenic diet is helpful.

Acid Reflux Natural Remedy Helps Cats And Dogs

"Candy my dog used to suffer from serious acid stomach until I found your products."

"Thank you so much. I want to tell you that if it were not for your products I do not know if my dog (Candy) would still be with us. For 4 months she threw up every night. She would wine and whimper throughout the night because of her acid stomach. I did everything her veterinarian said to due. I gave her Pepcid, changed to Prilosec and nothing worked. And I am well aware of the side effects of antacids long term which really worried me. The same day I started her on the program ( all 3, the Power Probiotics, Soothing Digestive Relief and the Gastro ULC) she stopped getting sick at night, no acid reflux. I have never seen anything like it. I was at my wits end and so worried until I found your products. I just want to say thank you."

"Here is a picture of my cat Penelope that is also on the same product for her kidney disease which causes her to  have acid stomach as well. This is working great on her as well. Pepcid did not work on either of them but this stuff does."

Hepatic Lipidosis In Cats: How Long Can A Cat Go Without Eating?

While a fat cat might appear to be a happy cat, there is actually a deadly condition that your cat can develop from being obese. Cats are highly dependent on protein in their diet, the protein is needed for fat metabolism which is then used for energy. "Feline Fatty liver" can develop when cats go for days without food (can be as little as 36 hours). 

Hepatic Lipidosis in cats (feline fatty liver) is when the liver stops functioning properly and stores fat, instead of metabolizing it. The cells swell and become "fatty". This build up of fat inside the liver cells can be associated with diseases that cause decreased appetite, or metabolic disorders such as diabetes or in some case there is no identifiable cause. 

It is important to seek veterinary help as soon as possible for the best prognosis.  Your veterinarian will use ultrasound and  blood tests (to evaluate liver enzyme levels) to help make a diagnosis. Once a diagnosis is made it will be critical to find the underlying cause of why your cat was not eating as this will help determine the best course of treatment.  

Why Are Cats At Risk For Hepatic Lipidosis?

This unique combination of cats' physiology, dietary requirements, and metabolic adaptations makes hepatic lipidosis a significant concern for cat owners and veterinarians. Prompt recognition and treatment are essential for a successful outcome in affected cats.

Obligate Carnivores: Cats are obligate carnivores, meaning they have a biological requirement for meat in their diet. Their livers are adapted to metabolize high amounts of protein and fat. However, if a cat suddenly stops eating, their liver can become overwhelmed with fat, leading to hepatic lipidosis.

Rapid Mobilization of Fat: When cats stop eating, their bodies quickly start breaking down fat stores to meet energy needs. Unlike other animals, cats have a limited ability to convert fat into glucose, which is essential for energy. As a result, excessive fat mobilization overwhelms the liver, leading to the accumulation of fat within liver cells.

Metabolic Adaptations: Cats' livers are not as efficient as those of other animals in handling large amounts of fat. Their metabolic pathways are adapted to deal with the high protein content of their natural diet. Sudden changes, such as fasting or a drastic shift to a high-carbohydrate diet, can disrupt these metabolic processes and lead to hepatic lipidosis.

Risk Factors: Cats are prone to stress-induced anorexia, which can trigger hepatic lipidosis. Additionally, obese cats or those with certain medical conditions are at higher risk. Female cats, especially those who have recently given birth, are also more susceptible.

Hepatic lipidosis can progress rapidly in cats, leading to severe liver dysfunction and even death if not treated promptly. The condition requires intensive veterinary care, including nutritional support and sometimes hospitalization.  Diet changes and supplements like liver support, probiotics and enzymes can also help.  Natural treatments for hepatic lipidosis can be lifechanging for cats.

Natural Hairball Treatment For Cats

Hairballs may be a common occurrence, but cats that regularly get them often have a motility or digestive problem.   Long-haired cats have more of a hairball issue than short-haired cats, but poor digestion is the biggest culprit.  Hairballs form when excessive amounts of hair accumulates in the stomach and is later coughed or vomited up. Feeding a hypoallergenic, high moisture diet (avoid dry food as cats are carnivores and the starchy carbohydrates in dry food are hard to digest) along with Power Probiotic, Lypozyme and Amazing Omegas can improve digestion and motility. Add Ask Ariel's Soothing Digestive Relief to relieve discomfort.  You can also try mixing a small amount of canned pumpkin into meals. Finally brushing your cat can also help.

Supplement For Mast Cell Tumors In Dogs

What are mast cells? Mast cells appear in connective tissue and are responsible for allergic and histamine responses. Mast cell tumors are one of the most common skin tumors on dogs. As dogs age, they may get lumps and bumps and it's important to see a veterinarian to differentiate between fatty lipomas and malignant tumors. Ask Ariel's AllerEaze contains quercetin and nettles to control histamine response, reduce inflammation and support your dog's immune system. It is a veterinary recommended supplement for mast cell tumors in dogs.

FDA ISSUES WARNING ABOUT PIG EAR DOG TREATS

Pig Ear Dog Treats Linked To Salmonella Outbreak

The FDA and CDC (Center For Disease Control) have issued warnings not to give pets pig ear treats due to a widespread salmonella outbreak across many states. People have been getting sick after handling the pig ear treats and pets could get sick from ingesting them. Multiple products have tested positive for salmonella and some are being recalled. For your safety and your pets, the FDA is recommending that ALL pig ear treats be avoided and not to touch them. If you have any pig ear treats, throw them away in a secure container and carefully clean your hands and any surfaces that came in contact with them.

Sago Palm Can Be Deadly For Pets

The Sago Palm has beautiful feathery foliage and is a very popular plant that is easy to grow either indoor or outdoor as it requires minimal care. However, this beautiful plant can be deadly for your pet.  It is important to be aware that while all parts of the Sago Palm are poisonous,  the seed (nut) is considered the most toxic as it contains the most Cycasin, which can lead to severe liver failure in dogs.

A dog can start to have a reaction within 15 minutes of ingesting the plant, but it can also take several hours which may make it difficult to know what is causing your pet the distress.  The amount ingested relative to the size of your pet can affect the level of toxicity. Every minute can count and the key to a favorable outcome is to seek immediate medical attention if you think your pet has consumed Sago Palm.

With early detection and quick treatment, a positive prognosis is possible and many dogs and cats make a full recovery. But, fast action is essential so that a veterinarian can use medical treatments to eliminate the toxin.  Short-term and long-term supportive care for liver function will also most likely be required.

Common signs of Sago Palm Poisoning

·         Vomiting

·         Diarrhea

·         Lethargy

·         Inappetence

·         Abnormal fluid accumulation in the abdomen

·         Abdominal pain

·         Jaundice
