Guest guest Posted October 25, 2003 Report Share Posted October 25, 2003 Comments? Misty L. Trepke http://www..com For the Family Pet By: Renders N.D. While puppies and cats have long become an extra family member, we also recognize their value in hundreds of Nursing and Convalescent Homes across the United States. Their visits to such facilities, it has been noted, have significantly lifted the moods and spirits of many shut-ins, alleviated depression in some and even lowered blood pressure readings of others. Therefore, we can easily understand the concern of such pet owners when their " extra " family member is not feeling well. In this close relationship between the family pet and the owner, the responsibility of taking care of the pets' needs can often put a dent into the family budget. Remembering that should your pet become ill or exhibit serious symptoms such as fever, loss of appetite, noticeable weight loss or other symptoms, which may require the fidyl expertise of a Veterinarian, we hope that you do not hesitate to contact your Vet. For minor problems which might save you an unnecessary trip to the Vet, along with the added cost of pet prescriptions, you may want to consider a few of the following: * Black Walnut Extract: Kills and expels worms * Cascara Sagrada: Relieves constipation, improves digestion. * Cornsilk: Soothes inflammation of the kidney & bladder * Echinacea: Boosts the immune response and helps to keep your pet healthy * Red Raspberry: Strengthens the uterus, helpful in labor prior to delivery * Tea Tree Oil: Anti-fungal, add to bath water regularly to kill fleas. * Valerian Extract: Calming, helpful when given prior to a nail clipping or grooming * Vitamin E: 400 IU, (the heart and circulation vitamin) * Yellow Dock: Made into a tea and used to swab the ears may prevent ear mites. * Zinc: 25 mg.
