Discomfort and Appetite Support for Cats

Yucca is used in cat food as well as food for other animals around the world. Its root is a highly nutritious herb that’s rich in vitamin C, beta-carotene, B vitamins, magnesium, iron, calcium, manganese, protein, niacin, and phosphorus.

How Yucca Supports Cats

Yucca contains two very beneficial compounds: sarsasapogenin and smilagenin. These two compounds work on the mucous membranes of the small intestine. These compounds help with the penetration and absorption of minerals and vitamins. Sarsasapogenin and smilagenin are known as steroidal saponins (phytosterols) which act as precursors to corticosteroids produced naturally by the body.

Steroidal saponins support the immune function of the body while stimulating and supporting the production of its own corticosteroids and corticosteroid–related hormones. Due to this action, studies conducted on Yucca have shown that it may be beneficial and effective for discomfort relief and inflammation in conditions such as arthritis. Yucca for cats may also be a natural appetite stimulant and may also help reduce the production of urease, which contributes to the unpleasant odors of urine and feces in some cats.

What is Diabetes in Cats and Dogs?

Like us, our furriends need glucose, a type of sugar, to fuel their bodies. Diabetes happens when the body cannot correctly turn glucose in the blood into energy that can be used. Glucose is also stuck in furkiddos’ bloodstream and accumulates. This unusual blood chemistry eventually leads to poison in the system, causing further damage and health problems.

Symptoms of Diabetes in Dogs and Cats

You may be wondering if there is any way you can tell if your furkid has diabetes.

Here are some general symptoms you may want to look out for:

• Excessive thirst and urination
• A drop in weight but increased appetite
• Cloudy eyes
• Poor hair and coat condition
• Fatigue

Left untreated, the condition will escalate. So if you notice any of the above signs in your little one, you should take them to see a vet as soon as possible.
