My cat (Bengal) battles with allergies, monthly. I have not been going to our vet (his drugs were killing her).

I have her on Immune Balance, Aller free 7, and Calming solution (4 drops of each) 2 times per day. She is doing better, but not gaining weight.

Should I be doing more?

Thank you for your time.

My 12 year-old, silver tabby lives inside and has itchy skin.

I am only interested in holistic suggestions.

She weighs about 7 lbs.

Please suggest a shampoo (without toxins) as she will tolerate a bathing. She is as finicky about food as I am.

hi i have a 4 mth old west highland puppy and i just noticed that she is limping and some times she would also vomit her appetite seems to have lessened but she is still as playful. she just started losing her teeth but they are dropping fast is that normal for puppies? her breath is also quite bad but we normally give her bones and chew toys. she also eats soil though we would scold her if we caught her is there a reason whyu is is limping and vomiting? she also scratches herself alot.

I have a 12 year old greyhound who is experiencing difficulty after eating–coughing harshly and gagging. He eats a wetted-down kibble mixed with canned food with glucosamine, chondroitin, and fish oil mixed in. I have also noticed that more and more frequently when he barks no sound comes out, and when he does manage to make a sound, it either sounds like he has laryngitis (very hoarse) or is very high-pitched. He has always had a relatively high-pitched “voice” for a greyhound, but recently he sounds more and more like a tenor.

I am concerned that I am seeing the beginnings of laryngeal paralysis, and wanted to know if I should take him to his vet now, or if it would be acceptable to wait until his annual, which is mid-January.

He is otherwise healthy, excepting some hind-end weakness which seems to be progressing.

Thank you,

Laurie

Just had my 4 yrear old golden vaccinated with yearlys-bordatella,rabies,parvo and distemper. At the same time vet prescribed temperil-p for a skin rash she has. I was wondering if the steroid in the medication will negatively interact with the vaccinations . Decrease the immune response that is the desired response of the vaccinations?? a concerned pet owner.
