Ways To Get Your Cool Cat To Like You

Getting your cool cat to like you is a lot like dating, especially if you are bringing a new cat into your home. Here are steps to help make your “relationship” with your cool cat a life-long love affair.

Speak Their Language
Your common language is body language and understanding your cat’s body language as well as paying attention to what you are displaying can have a big impact. Consider getting down on their level. Also, avoid sudden movements and eye contact which can be conveyed as a sign of aggression.

Playing It “Hard To Get
Most cats are not like dogs that might greet you at the door with great enthusiasm. Many prefer to be in control and come to you on their terms.

You May Have To Work At It
Just like human relationships it may take work to get your cat to like you. The key is to find what it takes to make your cat happy by learning their likes and dislikes.

Stay Calm and Carry On
Generally, cats like calm and quiet. Exuberant interactions can scare your cat and send them running to a safe place. They also are very sensitive to stress, anger and frustration, so try to avoid showing those emotions to your cat.

Go Ahead and Spoil Them
Everyone likes to be spoiled a little and your cat is no different. Sharing a special treat as a reward for positive behavior can help solidify your relationship.  Give your cat some extra attention by engaging in an activity your kitty likes along with some extra kisses and cuddles.

Is Your Pet's Antibiotic Use Becoming A Habit?

Pets can get infections every now and then.  Antibiotics can be a lifesaver, a necessary medication to treat the infection.  They are a pet's first line of defense when an infection is present. However, many times, rather than being a one-time cure, they become a way of life. That’s not to say sometimes a second dose or a different antibiotic is needed to knock out a bad infection, but all too often antibiotics are prescribed repeatedly for the same recurring, chronic infection rather than determining the root cause of the chronic infection in the first place.  Long term use of antibiotics can lead to many side effects including weakened immunity, bacteria resistance, yeast and digestive problems.  

If your pet is getting repeat infections, it's a sign that something is out of balance. It could be your pet has an underlying virus,  is allergic or intolerant to the food or stressed out.  Yes, it's possible for a pet that has had repeat infections to finally get better and overcome them, but this involves a natural, holistic approach.  Using immune support supplements such as the Immune Support Kit and making diet changes can be life-changing, especially  if the pet's weakened immunity is due to an underlying virus or food allergy.  Changing your pet's diet to a hypoallergenic, low-inflammatory diet can make a tremendous difference.

Loyalty of a Companion Pet

When you hear the word loyalty you may picture the unwavering love and companionship of your faithful dog. However, there may be others (most likely those that have never had a dog) that question this loyalty and believe it is only driven by their dependency on us for food and shelter. Rest assured dog people, they only need to witness the excitement of a dog upon the return of their people to know this is not the case.

Let us not forget our felines…they may appear aloof and independent, but they are reciprocal by nature. If we just show them love, respect and loyalty first, they will return the loyalty to us many times over!

September is Happy Cat Month

Happy Cat Month was originated by the CATalyst Council, an organization focused on educating people on the health and welfare needs of companion cats. It was their hope, in the month of September, that people would stop and reevaluate the health needs of their cats. They found that many people believe that cats are self-sufficient and may neglect preventative healthcare, but it is important to remember a healthy cat is a happy cat.  

Ways to Celebrate Happy Cat Month

1.  Take your cat to the veterinarian for a check-up
2.  Review your cat's diet – cats are carnivores and need a feline appropriate diet (limited carbohydrates)
3.  Provide preventative supplements (such as Power Probiotics and Amazing Omegas which help support their immune system) and supportive supplements (depending on their needs)
4. Spend some extra time cuddling your kitty

Natural Treatments For Feline Viruses (FIV, FeLV, FIV)

​Kittens and cats can get viruses such as FeLV, FIV and feline herpes. Viruses can weaken their immunity making them more susceptible to infections. Kitties with viruses can have chronic health problems such as sneezing, upper respiratory infections, eye discharge and lethargy. Using a holistic approach along with conventional treatments from your veterinarian can reduce flare ups and improve your kitty’s quality of life. Diet and nutrition play a big role in immunity as feeding cats a hypoallergenic, low carbohydrate diet can be helpful. Also Power Probiotic and the Immune Support Kit (contains three tasteless, liquid drops) have been an essential part of helping cats feel better too.

Immune Support Kit – The Immune Support Kit is very helpful for cats with sneezing and upper respiratory infections.  It contains three tasteless liquid immune support formulas:

• Easy to use drops (with minimal smell and taste - no alcohol)
• Fight infections to reduce nasal discharge and sneezing
• Clears up sinuses, nasal tract and improves breathing
• Gentle, natural formulas that can safely be used on an ongoing basis
• Supports your pet's own immune system to reduce viral flareups or asthma attacks

QuentaSAN and NotaSAN--Two powerful homeopathic formulas that are most effective when used together. Easy to use gentle drops that can have powerful and effective results in treating infections and relieves nasal and sinus discharge. The drops can be used long-term for immune support.

Silver Immune Support for Pets - Broad spectrum antimicrobial that can be used along with antibiotics. Safe for young kittens with upper respiratory infections too. AKA  "The Germinator"
