Cats
The skin is not only the largest organ of the body, but it is one of the most important as it forms a barrier to protect from infections, parasites, and the elements. The coat’s primary function is to protect the skin from physical and ultraviolet light damage. It is also helpful in the regulation of body temperature.
How we feed our pets and the various stresses placed on them can alter the balance between the good microflora in their gut and those that can cause disease. It can also alter the defense mechanisms that occur in the lining of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract.
At birth, puppies and kittens only have partially functioning immune systems, which makes them more vulnerable to diseases as they are unable to protect themselves. To help protect them from dangerous diseases, maternal immunity is bestowed on the puppy or kitten in its mother’s “first milk”.
Nutrition is one of the most significant variables when it comes to your pet's health. Luckily for pet owners, it is also one of the easiest variables to control. Adjusting your pet's diet for optimum nutrition will lead to healthier, happier pets. Take a look at my recipe for optimum pet nutrition and learn how you can help your pet thrive.
A raw diet recreates the way our pet’s ancestors ate in the wild for thousands of years. Dogs and cats are carnivores. Left to their own devices, their typical daily diet, like that of their wild cousins, would involve catching and eating another animal. A raw diet returns our cats to this more natural form of nutrition, as if they had hunted and caught their perfect dinner.
I often hear pet owners, pet food manufacturers and even veterinarians describe modern day canines as omnivores based solely on their being fed a diet consisting of both plant and animal matter. Few stop to think that today's domesticated dogs consume what we have decided is best for them.
Cardiomyopathy is the name given to any disease affecting the heart muscle. This is the most common form of heart disease seen in cats, and the most common cause of feline heart failure. It occurs more often in cats 5-7 years of age, although cases have been reported between 3 months — 17 years.
One of the best ways to improve your pet’s health is through nutritional supplementation. Just as most people understand the need to supplement their daily diet with vitamins and other nutrients; nutritional supplementation is now regarded as a valuable option for canine and feline performance and health as well.
