Holistic Pet Care
Herbs For Pets & Free Resource List for Furry Companions (not medical advice)
Hpathy.com has a great, free newsletter and a monthly Q&A with a homeopathic/holistic-minded veterinarian. I’ve found some really good tidbits of information for both cats and dogs in there from past Q&A’s.
Pet Vaccines Information
Pets are like family, and we deserve full, informed consent for their health choices, just like our own. Recently there has been more discussion about the possible side effects and harms with vaccinations, so I have compiled here a list of resources where you can get more information to make an educated decisions with your vet.
mRNA Pet Vaccines
Recently, many manufacturers of vaccines (including Merck) have started switching pet vaccines from the traditional format over to the mRNA platform. Traditional non-mRNA particle vaccines supposedly worked fine before, so I’m unsure for the reasons behind the switch as mRNA technology objectively seems to have many issues, including damaging the immune system, increasing inflammation markers, clotting disorders, and incidence of cancers. Personally, I advocate titer testing (which is where you test if your pet has immunity for the pathogen and only vaccinate if they are no longer immune), and recommend getting the traditional non-mRNA vaccines if required by state law.
