    Teddy - cat taken to ER - pancreatitis diagnosed

    Thank you all for your replies. I have a few more questions: Dr. Jean, do you have any specific recommendations for what brand or where to purchase quercetin or curcumin supplements from? It seems like ground beef is still okay for him, so which is better: 96/4 ground beef (grain-fed, not...

    Teddy - cat taken to ER - pancreatitis diagnosed

    If that's the case, then I'm definitely better off feeding him his raw ground chicken and chicken hearts. Mike looked up the ingredients in the Hill's i/d food, and they re garbage and the fat content is 23%. Thanks, Dr. Jeff.

    Teddy - cat taken to ER - pancreatitis diagnosed

    Thursday morning, I gave him breakfast and everything seemed normal, then I was away for the day. When I came home at 5:00, Mike said Teddy did not eat much for lunch. I could not get Teddy to eat his chicken for supper, even after I cooked it. He was very congested and stuffed up. At 7:00 p.m...

    Teddy - cat taken to ER - pancreatitis diagnosed

    We had to take our 14-year old Maine Coon cat to the ER on Friday, and he was diagnosed with pancreatitis (he also has hyperthyroid and heart disease). The vet there recommended Hill’s Science Diet i/d prescription diet (canned). My cat only gets raw chicken and beef, so I don’t know if he will...

    Need help - Teddy (cat) with probable HCM and right-sided congestive heart failure

    Thanks, Dr. Jeff. Also, what brand of freeze-dried chicken hearts do you recommend? I would like to get him a snuffle mat, as you suggested.

    Need help - Teddy (cat) with probable HCM and right-sided congestive heart failure

    Thank you for all the replies. Teddy's medical issue was identified as a possible heart issue at his visit with Dr. Stern on Feb. 15. She recommended we take him to Dr. Jonathan Goodwin, a cardiologist that had previously treated her own cat. By the grace of God, he was seen by Dr. Goodwin on...

    Need help - Teddy (cat) with probable HCM and right-sided congestive heart failure

    Unfortunately, what Dr. Tewari meant is she can't help Teddy with homeopathy. Is it time to look for another homeopathic vet?

    Need help - Teddy (cat) with probable HCM and right-sided congestive heart failure

    Dr. Stern did not want to try to take any fluid out without using an ultrasound. I don't have a snuffle mat for him, but perhaps it is time to get one. We got Standard Process Feline Cardiac Support and SP Cardiotrophin PMG and Sustenance Herbs Cardio-V from Dr. Stern today and started giving...

    Need help - Teddy (cat) with probable HCM and right-sided congestive heart failure

    Yesterday was a very bad day for Teddy and me. It started off fine, with him sitting in the recliner with Mike and watching Cat TV and napping. Then we went to his vet appointment, and immediately Dr. Stern noticed he wasn't his normal self. I knew something was wrong because his abdomen has...

    @DayshaG Hi, Daysha. I get my CBD supplements from Canna Companion USA (Contact Us - Schedule Consultation - Cannabis for Pets | Canna Companion). When I first started my journey of learning about holistic care for Teddy, I did a consult with Gail Pope. She is the one who recommended this...

    Question about how I know it's time to try Solensia for arthritis

    I wanted to write an update to this post. Teddy had his first Solensia injection in September. After about 2 1/2 weeks, he started moving around better. He had his second Solensia injection in October, and three days later he started scratching himself open. It was just a small area at first...

    Questions about NMN supplement by iHerb for my cat

    After seeing the Empower Hour talk by Dr. Peter Dobias where he spoke about NMN supplements, I would like to try giving some to my 14-year old, 18 pound Maine Coon cat, Teddy, to see if it might improve his energy level. Dr. Jeff, I think you referred to the California Gold Nutrition NMN...
