Natural Healing for Pets

When I had my dog, I had a friend that worked for a vet and she bottled up some brewers yeast tablets for me with instructions for the weight of my dog. My dog loved the tablets and would gobble them up. Fast forward to my cats and it's not happening unless I hold their mouths shut like when giving them a pill. So, I will not subject my cats to that and wished they'd like it as well as my dog once did. Oh and putting it in their food doesn't work either. Finicky little things have us trained so damn well, lol.

What about using brewer's yeast powder and adding just a bit in their wet food?

I would still use the vinegar and see how that goes. The vinegar is also good for digestion system and much more. Everyone has mixed feelings on garlic. I use it on my animals no problem. I even give it to my pig. Since I gave her vinegar and garlic I notice less flies on her.

Tonight I am sitting on the deck, smoking a really good cigar, and all the furkids are outside with me. The next thing I know, Sophie, my elderly cat of 18+ years, decides to jump up to the hand railing. Instead of reaching the railing she missing and falls over the deck, hits her head on my neighbor's fence, and falls on the concrete patio below. O M G! I am frantic because he isn't home. And we both lock our gates. So, I pull out a shovel, put out the cigar. And I dig a hole inbetween the fences. I call her name for a good 10 - 15 minutes and finally she comes to me. And I pull her thru. No bleeding, no nothing visable on the outside. I know she is bruised. Now she is inside and eating some treats. It is tough being a Dad. I hate to see any furkid hurt or crying. Oh, this just took my breath away.

I'm sure she'll be ok.She's probably also scared. Just keep an eye on her. make sure she rest and doesn't jump around.
