(Part 2) Best cat health supplies according to redditors

My dog was scratching her chest raw, and I came across a product called Vetericyn, and it really seems to have helped. I've seen it recommended for spay sites to speed healing. I hope your little one feels better soon!

Yes, i see this VERY frequently amongst animals (i care for animals for a living), and yes its uncomfortable (often actually quite painful) for them. Animals naturally hide their discomfort, so dont assume that their lack of obvious discomfort means they are actually not bothered by it.

I HIGHLY recommend that every pet owner keeps a bottle of saline eye rinse (available in any pharmacy store like cvs/walgreens/rite aid/etc) in their home.

When animals get hair/dust/etc in their eyes, rinse it out for them. They can't do it themselves and its much harder for them to try to dislodge debris in their eyes bc rubbing it with their paws often makes it worse. I also keep a bottle of lubricating eye drops in the house just for my pets as well bc when they've had something in their eye, it often has been there long enough to irritate it.

Product recommendations for any pet owner (cats, dogs, small and large animals included):

Saline eye rinse (to rinse debris/allergens/etc from the eye)

Antimicrobial opthalmic gel (to help facilitate healing and treat/prevent infection from any mild but uncomfortable corneal scratches, also really good for animals whose eyes are irritated due to allergies).

Lubricating eye drops (when an animal has had something in their eye for a while, the eye is often quite sensitive for a while after, a lubricating eye gel helps soothe and protect the eye, it helps them to put in drops 2x daily for 1-3 days after youve flushed something from their eye, or if they have allergies, this is something that is very soothing for them on a daily basis during times of allergy flare ups).

Edit: do NOT use just any random bottle of eyedrops. There are a variety of different types of eyedrops in drug stores and many of them are NOT suitable for use in animals eyes. Use ONLY lubricating eye drops (artificial tears), DO NOT use anything that has ingredients targeted towards other eye issues (redness, allergies, itching, contact lens care, cooling drops, etc). You only want to look for drops that say lubricating eye drops. I keep a bottle of Genteal lubricating eye drops (moderate to severe dry eye formula) in my house for animal use.

Catmilk

I use something like this which you just sprinkle on their food. BUT! It's actually just this which is incredibly cheap in comparison.

My dog gets a little scoop of that on his food during each meal and NOTHING else. I check his teeth frequently as well as regular dentist visits - perfect teeth and no bad breath.

Some recommendations are getting used to brushing help. Also, try other flavors of tooth paste. If you can't find a flavor, use a kids tooth paste. Yeah, she needs the fluoride, but brushing is better than no brushing. Talk to the dentist about adding separate fluoride treatments that aren't flavored. It does exist and she can use it as an extra treatment. You can try these toothbruses. They have worked for some of my students. If you can't find a toothbrush, I recommend one of these. I know it says for dogs. However, they make ones just like that for autistic folks that's labeled as such and its twice the price. I would also look into a waterpik or water flosser of some kind.

It's probably an ear infection. This is common for dogs with floppy ears that drag along the ground as they sniff the world. Your vet can give them a good cleaning and provide you with some antibiotics to clear it up. (Ear infections are quite painful.)

To prevent ongoing ear infections, you can clean their ears with a vinegar solution; but my Beagles hated that due to the strong smell. We use this ear cleaner because it has a very mild odor. Combine a weekly ear cleaning session with some treats, and Beagles will happily comply.

But, yes, vet first to get antibiotics. No one wants their Beagle to have ear pain.

I don't want to say anything about your father's perspective - many many people come from cultures where dogs are not all that important. In fact, even in the US, the extremely attentive (and expensive!) world of dogs is really relatively recent.

I may have been a bit harsh on your folks. If they love the dog, that is the primary concern. But problems like this really do need to be taken care of.

Here's a link to the US Amazon shop where they sell EpiOtic. You might want to see if your folks would buy it to try.

It won't work if it's mites, and it will help the ears but won't take away the allergies if that's the underlying cause. But it won't hurt him, and isn't very expensive.

Good luck!

Hello to a fellow Coloradan!

Things you'll need:

-A crate, either wire or airline works. Get the largest size you can reasonably fit (42-48 inches if you can). Check craigslist for sure, as you might not need it forever, and people are always selling and reselling crates.

-Dental supplies. I use water additive for my pups (a few drops in daily drinking water), as well as tooth wipes, foam cleaner. I also give my dogs daily chew things (ears, dental treats, etc) to do ALL I can to avoid dental cleanings. My male hound is coming up on 10 years old, and never once has needed a dental!

-Boots of some kind, though my guy only tolerates pawz rubber boots. They are disposable and reuseable, but make walking in cold CO weather MUCH easier. Otherwise their paws tend to go numb quickly, usually a good 1/2 mile from your house!

-I unfortunately don't have recommendations on jackets, as I got my dog's coat secondhand from his rescue on the east coast, and also got another from a greyhounds in gettysburg back when I lived in MD. DO get something really warm though. I put a coat of some kind on my guy if it's less than 40 degrees out, and do the heavier one if it's less than 20. You can also layer up if need be. Jammies are also something to consider (mine can't deal in the house if it's less than 69 degrees inside and paces around a lot trying to stay warm): This kind is great and very inexpensive for indoor use! I think we got the large, and it's still a bit big. A smaller female might just need a medium.

-Chews. In my experience, greyhounds aren't big on nylabones and antlers...the most cost effective ones ;). They LOVE cow/lamb ears, bully sticks, natural bones, compressed rawhide, etc. The site I linked to above, Jefferspet.com, has a great, inexpensive selection of natural chews that seem to agree better with my hound than any of the artificial stuff (greenies, dentastix, busy bones, etc. that are high in fat and gluten products).

-Consider a dremel tool for their nails. I still trim manually from time to time. but the dremel takes the guess work and stress out of possibly nicking your dog's vein. I have the dog lay down for me on a bed and work on a few nails at a time at first, up to 3 seconds at a time (it gets hot!). Some dogs nails grow faster than others, but for beginnings, I find they take to this much easier. It IS very important to keep their nails nice and rounded, as they are so easily prone to scratching/injury on themselves.

-A first aid kid. Your dog will get scrapes and cuts on the regular, especially if you do anything outdoorsy in CO. Invest in some gentle antiseptic, gauze, vet wrap, neosporin, liquid bandage, etc. and always know right where your kit is. A lot of people see greyhounds and assume they were abused by the scars some have; it's difficult to explain to them that most of the scars they've incurred have actually been during their time with me! They can be very clumsy, and particularly when playing with other dogs, a paw scratch or playful nip can result in stitches -_-.

This isn't obviously a comprehensive list, but just some ideas of things others might not have mentioned. Good luck to you on your greyhound journey!

Poor guy! That definitely doesn't sound fun for any of y'all! We have an older husky mix that used to get chronic ear infections that involved almost psychotic levels of ear scratching, and after frequent and expensive vet visits about it, I found this stuff: Zymox . It has been a life saver. It clears up the infection quickly, and then we put a little in his ears every week and it keeps them from coming back. The best part is that it has cortisone for relief of the itching and scratching. Maybe the infection is gone but it's still itching him and this stuff could help? You can get it at Petco and Petsmart if you don't want to wait for it to come from the internet. Good luck with your pup!

One of my cats has irritable bowel syndrome. This results in chronic diarrhea. We used to have her on a prescription food, and it helped, but here's what we found worked best, diet wise to control the diarrhea:

We give her a quarter can of Friskies Turkey with half a tablespoon of pumpkin purée - the stuff for pumpkin pie filling. It has a lot of fiber and works wonders. We also buy a cat probiotic from Amazon and follow the instructions on the jar, which is one scoop in with the food. We mash it all together, that's what she eats all day, and it's has changed her movements from pure liquid to a more solid "soft serve". We still wipe her bottom, but it's so much better.

As far as not using the litter, it can be a lot of things. We had an older cat who developed arthritis and could no longer step into the box we had so she started having accidents. A much lower box solved the issue.

She may not like the kind of litter you're buying. The box might not be clean enough for her. The box may not be in an area she feels safe going potty in. She may have a UTI or other health issues.

I'd start with fresh, new litter boxes that are nice and clean and in a low traffic, quiet spot. Throw away as much as you can that has been pottied on so the cat doesn't smell the mess and think "oh, this is my poopie place." Move up to trying the pumpkin if you can and maybe add in the probiotic. Try to get her to a vet if you can.

You're a good person and you're doing all you can. I wish you the best.

Edit : I saw someone mentioned fortiflora! That's what we were using! We didn't have much luck with it and so we switched to this probiotic because in the ingredients it had more active probiotics. We've had much better results, but you do your research and try what you think is best. And if you can get to a vet, of course listen to them! :)

This ear cleaner works great for getting rid of ear mites.
Put coconut oil on the ferret's fur, it will mat it down and look bad, but it will smother out the fleas naturally.

I give mine these

http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B006OCG4JY

You want Lactose reduced milk for cats. You don't have to keep it refrigerated. Also, its color is not white.

Not a vet, but I just want to mention that there is an alternative.

My vet also mentioned that store bought treats and diets aren't really scientifically proven to have an effect. She recommended some special diet kibble that only vets are selling and gave me some samples for my kitty to try out. He kind of hates them, so I asked about an alternative.

So I ended up with this thing:
http://www.amazon.com/Proden-PlaqueOff-Dental-Care-Dogs/dp/B0047VWPNI
It's 15$ and generally lasts you for a whole year for an average sized cat. You just mix a tiny bit in with wet food.

I have no idea how well it works yet, I just started using it a few weeks ago, but the vet says it's great.

It's also possible to brush your cat's teeth, if she will take it! She's still young, so maybe you can get her to accept it if she's used to being handled by you...

Anyway, best of luck!

A general pet-safe ear cleaner should be fine as they're not ingesting it. e.g. https://smile.amazon.com/Virbac-3008-Epi-Otic-8-Ounce/dp/B002CZT12O/wabbi-20?sa-no-redirect=1

This is highly recommended, Mad About Organics additive. There is a toothpaste and water additive too.

Adding that we’ve been using it for about two weeks now (powder and brushing) and her breath is much better so I assume the plaque is going away.

Smelly is doing pretty well. He is going to a scenting class and it just just fantastic. I am finding that he sniffs more on walks as well.. almost that he has learned that is is a-okay to sniff on walks. Perhaps he even is a touch more confident!

I am using the calming cap and it has been working wonders in preventing lunges in the narrow apartment hallways. It works more to confuse him, not calm him, but I'll take anything to stop the lunging.

The weather is nicer.. the snow has melted so we have started biking again! We biked by a few dogs and did a little BAT on foot in mud. He learned how to balance on a balance beam in the park! Now if there were only agility classes for reactive dogs...

My wife found a little rubber fingercap/toothbrush thing, and chicken flavored toothpaste. Our fuzzies resisted initially, but now they try to steal the toothbrush, and like the toothpaste.

Something like this: https://www.amazon.com/Mascota-Pets-Dog-Toothbrush-Cat/dp/B01LZA8UHB/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1499451634&sr=8-2-spons&keywords=small+pet+toothbrush&psc=1

and

This stuff is amazing:
https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B0066VLPGA

You should keep it on-hand if you have a dog with ear problems. This stuff works great for regular cleaning:

https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B0014HYCM0

I also second the recommendation for Horizon, they're great there, and fairly priced. Sorry, I'm not sure how much a consult is, but you can call.

Hey! My cat is 8 and over the last few years he had developed really bad nighttime anxiety. It's been keeping us up at night because it's just constant crying. I feel awful and I can't keep waking up to calm him.

Anyway, I found these collars on Amazon. They are calming and have a mixture of pheromones and lavender. He hasn't cried a single night since we started using them. I'll send a link!

https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0080ZCCNU/ref=mp_s_a_1_14?ie=UTF8&qid=1482114361&sr=8-14&keywords=calming+pheromones+for+cats#

There are also lysine treatums that your cat might like. My cat likes PetNaturals of Vermont L-Lysine chews and OptixCare L-Lysine Chews. Depending on the dose contained in the treat and the size of your cat, it can be 2-4 of the first treats per day, or 1-2 of the second kind.

This is what we use for Blondie: http://www.amazon.com/Virbac-3008-Epi-Otic-8-Ounce/dp/B002CZT12O/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1370276864&sr=8-1&keywords=Epi-Otic

Sometimes the vet will gives us an antibiotic ointment to use along with this and it clears it up pretty well! I use this stuff every other day to clean her ears.

I can't necessarily speak to not breaking the bank - but the absolute best gag I've ever had is this one. It isn't cheap, but the way that the ball is molded seamlessly with the first two inches of the strap mean that you can wear it very tightly without it cutting into the corners of your mouth. Makes a big difference over cheaper gags I've had.

On the other hand, if you really want to muffle sound - a hankerchief/cloth/sock kept in place by vet wrap can do a really good job for the price. It doesn't have the same easy on/easy off that a gag with a strap would, but it is really effective.

[Just make sure the corners of whatever fabric is in your mouth are tucked in/facing the teeth-wouldn't want it unfolding down your throat.]

That looks like a hot spot or a boil. Is it raised at all? Does it feel bulbous like a zit or something?

If it's a hot spot, try getting some Vetricyn. Works amazing on our dogs whenever they get a hot spot.

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0045DDN1G/ref=pd_lpo_sbs_dp_ss_1?pf_rd_p=1944687502&pf_rd_s=lpo-top-stripe-1&pf_rd_t=201&pf_rd_i=B00425DZTM&pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_r=0RFCHFTJ6F41AAMATMFA

We used http://amzn.com/B005IW1GOY

We don't use it nowadays and just stick with plain greek yogurt every morning with his kibble.

I have been going through the same thing with my 4-year old DS mix.

I have found Zymox Ear Solution to be a life-saver. It clears up the ears after a few treatments. You can buy from any online retailer without prescription (Chewy, Amazon, Walmart, etc...). They also have a cleaning solution so make sure to get the Ear Solution and not the cleaner.

https://www.amazon.com/Zymox-Enzymatic-Solution-0-5-Percent-Hydrocortisone/dp/B007NVJAJG

You apply the treatment but do not wipe the inside of the ears. The gunk will come out as they shake their head and you just clean up the outside of the ear.

The vet always told me that he just has "dirty ears" and daily cleaning was the only option. Zymox cleans up the infection in a couple days but they do come back without treatment. Once under control, a weekly or every two week treatment is sufficient.

My cat had perpetual soft poops which sometimes had a small amount of mucousy blood. I took her to the vet and she went through two rounds of meds and nothing changed. I eventually tried adding probiotics to her food once a day and now she has totally normal poops! this is what i use https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00RKQF6QA/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_image_o09_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Man! No ones on this thread. Would love to hear other people's opinions and thoughts as well. I'll throw out mine in the mean time.


I haven't really gotten around to researching daily supplements yet (i think because I'm a believer of nutrients coming straight from the food source), I've done a little research about Taurine but that's about it so far. If you mean emergency situation sickness stuff, I've been slowly building a first aid kit for our ferrets. Inside I have ProBiotics, FerretRx, and Ferret Lax. I've used all of these with great success. The Probiotic helps with some tummy upsets when switching food and minor illness. The Ferret Rx was a great help when a cold spread through out the home and even to the ferrets and the ferret lax is something I feel should be a requirement to ferret house holds. Defiantly helped durring shedding season.


Also, Liam and Jasper are looking adorable in that pic. ❤

I read an article a while ago with the premise, "It is NOT normal for cats to puke. Can you imagine if you puked every other day? Would you ignore it or go to a doctor?"

That kind of woke me up - it should not be normal to puke, not even if they eat quickly or the treats are "too rich" (what I thought at the time).

Anyway, the article went on to recommend probiotics, saying that typical dry cat food actually is the cause of certain liver problems (not lack of water - at least according to this article), and priobiotics will set the gastric system back to more normal. I use this one from Amazon.

I have - or had (lost one to a heart murmur) - three cats, so it gets expensive, but well worth it. I used to come out every-other morning and find some puke, not knowing which of them did it. Sometimes more frequently. Once I started with the probiotics, it has gone WAY down - maybe a couple times a month. And in those cases, I suspect I didn't put enough in the food. I mix it in the soft food, use a baggie to shake it on the dry food before I put it in the bowl, and I even use the bag-shake tactic to coat the kittie treats.

I use either a wet q-tip or wrap a wet, thin, cheap washcloth around my finger and just wipe her teeth. The q-tip gets into the smaller spaces better but the washcloth is better than nothing when I'm lazy and it's good for her gums (I use the same washcloth to wipe her face). You can also get a cat toothbrush if the dog ones are too large. I don't think what kind of toothpaste you get matters. The physical act of brushing is more important.

Try brushing his teeth with your finger first to get him used to it and go slowly. Also, show him a high value treat before you start (and only give him this treat when he gets his teeth brushed) and keep it visible (or smellable) while you brush his teeth, then give it to him when you're done.

My mother uses the following for her dogs and it does work. I used it as well until I had to stop because my dog has IBD. Since she's been off it, her teeth have gotten pretty bad because I'm lazy and don't brush them enough. Sorry about the format of think, I'm on mobile.

That is the wash. We're trying to see his normal vet for the endo, same office but the other two were not the usual for us, ours was unavailable for a bit. I'm thinking about recording his behavior at home so the vets can see, he gets so happy to be out and about that they don't see the extent of his ill behavior. He is a very tough puppy, rescue with a painful history and he just tanks through pain like a champ. For him to be crying and refusing food is extreme, but some vets are so used to people crying wolf that they don't listen, which I understand to an extent, but it is frustrating. He dropped two pounds in a week between the first visit and the xrays.

try this!

I tried the apple cider vinegar washes and painstakingly cleaning the ears of my older aussie who permanently had yeasty ear funk. Nothing worked for more than a few days, and clearly the "source" was still there. Then i found Zymox. Used it before baths and that was that. I still do a rinse on bath day but three years later the yeastiness has never come back. It's wonderful.

I don't know about feeding vaseline to your ferret, never heard of that before. This is what the majority of people use. If your fuzzbutt is hacking or coughing, this will clear it up.


You ferret does need to be helped in the cleanliness department every couple months. Clean the hammocks/blankets, wipe down the cage, and bathe him if he gets stinky/oily to the point that its noticeable. Dry him off as best you can and lay down 2-3 towels he will dry himself.


The above mentioned ferretlax(or bribe as I call it) is useful for distracting him while you clip his nails(you'll see a black vein in the nail, clip a few millimeters above this or it will hurt/bleed).


Good Luck!

Yeah it might be, poor thing. In my experience, managing the flair ups is pretty doable, I just feel so bad when they're stuffed up. I've used the following three brands - if you have a picky cat, the Vetoquinol Enisyl-F is the one all 3 of mine have consistently liked, and was given to us the first time by a vet. Problem is it tends to run more expensive than the others. I've also used the Vetriscience lysine treats, only word of warning are these are sort of big and 'chewy' so the two of my cats who like these prefer them broken down into smaller pieces. This last one I know I've used before, but I can't remember anything about it and I haven't kept using it. One of my cats is very picky though so that's probably why.

Is it the same as this stuff? It only sticks to itself and is breathable, I have a whole roll it's the black thing in the upper right-hand corner that says vetwrap.

I use Plaque Off made from seaweed. It's in powder form and I sprinkle it over the cats food. He likes it and his teeth remain white. Breath never smells bad.

https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B0047VWPNI/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pC_nS_ttl?_encoding=UTF8&colid=1M2AEOUGW1CQ8&coliid=I2IF0MWYCMC5FJ

I use a calming cap to keep my reactive dog from barking at other dogs from the car. It's amazing. It put it over her eyes and she instantly relaxes and lays down in the back seat. She looks absolutely ridiculous wearing it and I'm a little embarrassed driving around my neighborhood with my blindfolded dog in the back seat, but it works. It didn't take too long to train her to wear it either.

We've used nylabones liquid tartar and get it from Amazon. http://www.amazon.com/Nylabone-Advanced-Liquid-Remover-32-Ounce/dp/B006YFYNIU

What about supplements like PlaqueOff or Oxyfresh? Do you think they help at all?

Cats, unlike dogs, bond to territories not to people.
If you moved the cat into a different location it may take quite an adjustment period before she goes back to her happy self.
When I moved cross country it took one of my cats several months to settle in.

Get some Feliway and spray it around. It mimics the pheromones that make cats feel secure and at home in unfamiliar places.

Yes, any soft bristled toothbrush. He’s gotten so used to it I just get a package of kids toothbrushes because I replace it every month.
This was the first toothbrush I started him with. I left it out all the time and he played with it like it was a toy. I was trying to get my point across to him that this is really fun. Whenever he would come up to me for pets I would play with his lips and touch his teeth. I wanted him to put together petting and having his mouth touched so it’s a positive experience. I really like the CET brand toothpaste, the chicken flavor, my cat is allergic to fish. It has enzymes so just getting some in their mouth helps break up the plaque. This process of getting them used to stuff is very slow and can take a couple weeks.

Once you feel comfortable handling them and they think toothbrushes are fun toys and treats start with the canines or an easy to reach tooth. Even a few seconds a day is better than nothing. I try to pick a time of day I notice that he is just chilling in his bed so he is calm. I put out some treats so he has something to focus on and he gets to eat them when I’m done. I squish his hips between my elbow and my side so he doesn’t feel the need to scoot back. If your cat is older be careful of her neck and back not to press down on them. I go in from the side under his whiskers and start with his front teeth. To get his molars I turn the handle around so it’s kind of opposite how you would brush your own teeth. I don’t want him to feel like I’m shoving something in his mouth. I’m gently sneaking in. If you feel like she’s getting stressed it’s ok to take a step back and play with toothbrushes, add toothpaste to a treat, or put some toothpaste on your finger and let her lick it off. Try not to get discouraged, anything you do will help. I also use a water additive and he loves greenies feline dental treats.

My cat doesn’t love his teeth being brushed but he tolerates it and then he goes back to sleep. I am weirdly passionate about brushing cats’ teeth so feel free to contact me if you want to. I think it’s a great way to bond and build trust.

I usually just spray it in their carrier about 15 mins before I have to take them somewhere:

If you want burns like this to heal better/faster there's something you can do, though you should have started already.

Here's the supplies you'll need:

Triple Antibiotic Ointment.
Anti-fungal ointment.
Vet Wrap (there's probably a human version but I don't know what it's called) This stuff sticks to itself but is re-usable.
Sterile saline solution (used for rinsing contacts)
Non-stick telfa pads.

You can find ALL of these things at any pharmacy for probably around $25-30.

So first you rinse the burn with the saline to clean it. Then mix up the ointments and apply that, then stick tefla pads to that and use the wrap it hold it all on.

I've had 3rd degree burns healed up in about a week using this method with little to no scarring.

Look at this stuff here!

It could be some sort of pheromone imbalance when there are just 2 females without any males. I believe there are pheromone collars that help calm pets.. have you tried one of those?

edit: something like this

So you're saying that you would not buy this gel stuff that says "Veterinary recommended" and has a lot of reviews saying it works wonders for eye infections?
