Spot, the Holistic Kitty

Spot was found in a shelter with his brother, Spike, in 2003, in Oceanside, CA. Full of spunk and all heart. He suffered through life with feline herpes, allergies, and finally IBD. He never ever wanted to stop fighting, living, and loving. When he was brought home from the shelter a little over a month old, he could barely take a breath in his little lungs because of his feline herpes. The vets said there was nothing to be done for him and to “make him comfortable” - see if he lives. I heard that over and over again throughout his little life when the vet could not fix him with their drugs. I had to learn the hard way through lots of research, and trial and error, how to help Spot fight. When I held his little kitty body in my hands when he suffered his first bought of feline herpes I learned through research that it was ok to give a kitty essential peppermint oil to help him breathe. And I’ve been researching ever since. He recently lost the ability to fight in December, 2015, due to severe IBD. During that dark time, I looked back at all the things I wish I would’ve known up front - and not have wasted so much time with confusing trial and error. We hope that you can learn from Spot and I … and our journey. From a holistic perspective, the whole cat body, mind, and spirit. Thank you for taking the time to read this and especially for looking for ways to give back to your kitty when I know they’ve given so much!

 

Me, I'm here to share what Spot wants the other kitties in the world to know about being healthy and living a long life!
