Cat Health is about giving your little furry friend the best chance to live a long and healthy life.
Did you know that a cat fed a proper diet can live 25 to 30 years? But most domestic cats are lucky to live to 12 years old.
Frustrated Veterinary Doctor Reveals Simple Secrets To Safeguard Your Cat's Health, Slash Vet Bills, And Even Save Your Pet's Life!
Dr. Andrew Jones, DVM, a practicing vet for 10 years has written a revealing book about how modern vetinary practices are shortening the life of our beloved pets. He didn't come to this conclusion lightly, after all he was trained in modern vetinary practices and never thought to question them until he was forced to by the premature death of one of his own animals.
He isn't the first vet to question many of the accepted animal health practices. Others too have expressed concern about many aspects of pet health care as it is practiced today. Did you know, for example, that annual vaccination is known to cause cancer in some cats?
" Over the last few years, the veterinary community has discovered that some cats develop sarcomas--malignant fleshy growths--at the site of vaccinations. ... says Dr. Barbara E. Kitchell, oncologist and veterinarian at the University of Illinois Veterinary Medicine Teaching Hospital at Urbana. " Something about cats makes them more vulnerable; cats don't need much trauma to induce such a mutation. "Cats have developed sarcomas at sites of antibiotic and even steroid injections. Also, when cats get tumors, the tumors tend to be very aggressive, high-grade forms."
Nutrition is another controversial area. Why do we feed our cats and dogs food that is so unnatural? Cats don't need their food to be cooked. When they are living in their own environment they eat small prey, and of course they eat it raw and they get their vegetables from eating the stomach contents.
The dry and canned food we give them contains products that they would never eat in the wild, and some of these products are harmful. Read the label on most pet foods and you will see what the problem is- preservatives, too much carbohydrate, wheat, meat by-products, animal fats and so on. Meat by-products are the bits we can't eat- like claws and fur and any other old rubbish that even the poorest people on earth can't do anything else with.
No wonder our pets get sick. You want to do best for your pet and what could be more important than giving him or her the right food to eat?
But back to the manual that Dr. Andrew Jones DVM has written. In it he tells you everything you need to know about keeping your pet in good health. There are hundreds of home remedies that will save you a great deal of money in vet bills, as well as allowing your cat or dog to live out their natural lifespan.
It isn't just about food, maybe you just aren't ready to try and emulate a natural cat diet just yet, and you certainly don't want to have to catch mice for your kitty! There are easier alternatives you will be pleased to hear. (If you want to learn more about feeding your cat a healthy home made diet there is a very good info here by another vet.)
Since you have read right down to the bottom of this page I know you are interested in giving your cat the best possible health! To that end I highly recommend Vetinary Secrets Revealed. If you have other pets such, as a dog this manual covers them too.
