Preemptively i was looking to get this for herpes flares in my cats. My main worry is the ethanol. Are any of these ingredients harmful? Are any beneficial? Is there another option? •Active Ingredients Aconitum Napellus 3x Apis Mellifica 3x Kali Ioda
I'm so sorry to hear about your kitties! Unfortunately, there is no evidence that homeopathic remedies like these work. My other concern is that this is a pretty high concentration of alcohol. I'm sure the dose is small, but still, I worry that it could be potentially harmful. If you are looking for a natural support for herpes virus, I recommend trying Lysine. This is an amino acid that we think may help interrupt the herpes life cycle. It is very safe for any cat in the household and may be used long term to help prevent flare-ups. A few veterinary approved products I like are Vetoquinol Viralys (L-Lysine) Oral Gel for Cats and Duralactin Feline L-lysine Cat Supplement. Just follow the directions on label. If any cat has squinting eyes, is not eating, or seems very lethargic, it is time to visit your vet as these signs may indicate a secondary eye ulcer or bacterial infection that requires medication. Best of luck to you all!

ALP is 1,800 in her bloodwork today , vet referred me to another vet to treat it but didn’t answer my questions on treatment . Age 12 mini dauschaund . Any supplements would help ?
Thanks for using Boop by Petco! There are several conditions that can cause an elevated ALP and some of them do not require therapy right away. However, in terms of supplements, you could consider using a product called Denamarin which can help the liver in general with several different conditions. Good luck and have a good night!

Hello and thanks for using Boop by Petco! Pearl looks like she is very sweet! One of the things you may be able to do to help Pearl lose weight is to home cook for her. There is a website called balanceit.com that can help ensure the home cooked diet you are feeding is appropriate for weight loss and well balanced. From a holistic standpoint improving nutrition and having Pearl lose weight can help her overall well being. If she is on temaril P I assume this is for coughing related to reduce airway inflammation or tracheal inflammation. If she is coughing related to heart disease other medications may be useful so it may be a good idea to schedule a follow up with your veterinarian or even a veterinary cardiologist. There are other supplements and herbal medicine that can be helpful when heart disease is present but they vary from case to case. If You are interested in treating using these therapies I suggest looking into an integrative veterinarian near you. Or I would be happy to

My female cat has a some type of alergy and is broke out on her back to the point that is seeping is there a natural remedy I can use on her.
Thanks for using Boop by Petco! This is possibly due to allergies. It really comes down to figuring out what is causing her allergies so that they can be treated or the specific allergen avoided. A secondary infection is likely and also needs to be addressed. There are many things that can cause allergies though in most cases they can be broken down into 3 big categories: flea, food and environmental allergies. Allergies are usually worked up in a stepwise fashion starting with flea allergies as this is the easiest and cheapest to take care of. If not on a flea preventative, then it would be a good idea to get started on one. If already on one then it would be a good idea to change to something else (there are many new products out in the market). If not improved in 1-3 months then it is time to move on and check for food allergies by switching to a novel diet (new protein and new carbohydrate). If that does not seem to be the issue then you are left out having to check for envir

Hello my names Andrew my 14 year old mini moltese just recently got diagnosed with heart murmer and signs of heart issues. just wondering what natural vitimens on top of the medican they put him on could I add the pills are medson and heart health.
So sorry to hear that Sam has heart disease. I would recommend using an immune booster like Cell Advance. I don't know what you have available in Australia or if you can get that product over there. Here is a link to it: https://www.amazon.com/VetriScience-Advance-Canine-Formula-Capsules/dp/B01FWI6U6C/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1500432260&sr=8-1&keywords=cell+advance+dog+440 The other thing you can do is start an Omega fatty acid supplement. These fatty acids have protective properties and antioxidants that help the heart muscle. Here is product you can get in Australia: https://www.petbarn.com.au/dogs/dog-health-wellbeing/paw-dermega-3-6-oral-supplement-for-dogs-200ml I hope this helps. Best wishes to you and Sam.
