skin and coat health
To celebrate Father’s Day, we put these five types together for you to read along and find out which one you are!
Pet parents deal with their pets’ sickness in different ways. They all love their pets, but not all show it the exact same way. Our pet experts come across pet owners from all walks of life, and when it comes to pet dads, we can identify a few broad types. To celebrate Father’s Day, we put these five types together for you to read along and find out which one you are!
The Single Pet Dad Type
His furkiddo is always number one in his heart but he is still on the lookout for the perfect stepmom or stepdad for his furry friend. His pet isn’t just his best friend but also the best wingman. Always playing games and pranks. This could also be the sporty type that is always taking their furkiddo to the park or the beach and loves to play for hours.
The Hipster Type
This pet dad is usually younger but there are older hipster pet daddies. They sport tattoos, creative hair, beards, or mustaches and lean towards the arts. The hipster is the most vocal of pet dad advocates and will jump on pet-related causes. They are hip to the need to spay/neuter pets, to micro-chip, and feed the best organic food possible. Often vegan, animal rights are close to their hearts. They aren’t ashamed to take selfies with their pet, rock the most ridiculous pet t-shirt, hat, or commission a portrait of their furkid.
The Strong Silent Type
This pet dad brings their pet in for vet appointments but doesn’t usually say much. He’ll leave it to the family to speak with the vets and techs about what’s going on. He’ll stay behind the sidelines, quietly observing but you can still sense that he is deeply affected by how his pet feels. When a serious illness arises, or end-of-life discussions become necessary, he is 100% involved. He just doesn’t want to express his feelings very openly.
But here’s a secret about these types, they are devastated when it’s time to let go. When it’s time to say goodbye to their beloved pet they are no longer silent. They let their buddy know how much they mean to them, and it’s at that time they put the silence aside and cry along with the rest of us.
The Smitten In Love Type
This pet dad has no hang-ups about showing just how much he loves his “little-fluffy-baby-kissy-face”. He is definitely not afraid to let their love shine. He will cringe along with his pup and blurt out a dad joke when it’s time to take a temperature. He will grab his kitty after a blood draw and say “it’s ok baby, it’s all over”. He will have a very hard time letting the vets or techs take their little lovey to ‘the back’.
They’re great at owning what they feel inside for their pets, and there’s definitely no shame in that! Men are expected to keep a strong stance in many situations and it can be quite stressful. It is good to know that their pets give these men a chance to let it all go and be the actual love bugs they are.
The Secret Admirer Type
This type of pet dad that stands out is a mix of the previous two. This dad constantly tries to hide his love for his pets but he can be secretly caught a baby talking to them. We think this is the most populated category of pet dads.
You open the door to the exam room and catch them in a snuggle fest or “prep talk” with their pet (“It’s ok when we get home, I’m gonna give you so many cookies and the best belly rubs…”) When they realize you’re there, they quickly turn to the strong silent type. When tough situations arise, they put on their sunglasses so no one will see their eyes well up with tears. They choke back their emotions, but you just know when they get home, they let it all go.
No matter how they show it, pet dads love their pets as if they were their own children. They all show their love in different ways, but when you look deep down, they want what’s best for their little-fluffy-baby-kissy-face. At NHV we get to help pet dads every day and we have some really lovely stories to share. If you are a pet dad looking for holistic advice, please contact us directly and we’d love to help. Happy Father’s Day.

Why Should Pet Pawrents Care About Cat Skin and Fur Care?
Your cat’s skin is the first line of defense between the body and the outside world. Moist dermatitis or "hot spots" can happen when your furkiddo itches or obsessively grooms the irritated skin until the area is raw. The repeated licking or pawing breaks the skin and allows bacteria to spread, so the affected area can become inflamed and infected and can be very uncomfortable for your kitty. Excessive production of oils in the skin can be a response to irritation and can cause unpleasant odors.
How Coco Furcare - Coat Spray for Cats Supports Your Pet’s Skin and Coat.
NHV’s Coco Furcare's all-natural blend of ingredients is safe to use on a daily basis to strengthen your cat’s skin barrier against biting critters and skin irritations while encouraging hair growth and hydration. The coconut oil protects your pet’s skin, encourages healing and helps provide mild UV protection against harmful sun rays. Ingredients like cedarwood, neem, clove bud, lavender and lemongrass work as natural deodorizers against unpleasant smells caused by clogged or irritated skin and reduce dander too! Allergies, bacterial infection and yeast infection are only a few examples of conditions that can benefit from NHV’s Coco Furcare.
Tips for keeping your Cat’s Coat Healthy (with Coco Fur Care)
- Blend of ingredients can soothe skin and moisturize fur (non-greasy)
- Rosemary and coconut oil may provide mild UV protection
- Help naturally shield against biting insects like ticks, fleas, lice

Neem leaf (Azadiracha Indica)
Neem has been used in India for over two millennia for its medicinal properties. It has anti-tumor, anti-fungal, and anti-inflammatory properties that are beneficial to help your furkiddo achieve the coat they've always wanted as well as aid with skin-related issues like allergies, dermatitis, hair loss, dry skin, dandruff, and skin cancer. Azadiractin - a chemical component found in neem acts as a natural shield against bug bites by interfering with their growth cycle. Too good to be true? Wait until you read about all the other amazing ingredients in Coco Furcare.
Coconut Oil
For centuries, coconut oil (which contains lauric acid and linoleic acid) has been used to improve overall skin and coat health. It can help against microorganisms and has anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, and anti-allergic properties that protect, moisturize and improve your pet's coat. Coconut oil also provides mild UV protection so your pet can play in the sun, have soft skin, and be protected while they're at it.
Rosemary Leaf (Rosmarinus officinalis L.)
Rosemary contains anti-inflammatory, antiseptic, antibacterial, and astringent properties that help your fur baby recover from skin allergies, dermatitis, promote wound healing and prevent tick bites. The antioxidants in rosemary help to reverse the negative effects of sun exposure (ie: skin cancer) as well as fight free radical damage in hair follicles. When used topically, it reduces discomfort and improves circulation.
Sodium Bicarbonate
A naturally high alkaline substance, sodium bicarbonate is known to have antibacterial, antiseptic, anti-inflammatory, and anti-fungal properties. It gently absorbs moisture, leaving skin smelling fresh and clean while soothing irritated skin. Sodium bicarbonate also helps to rid your sweet pet of dandruff! It acts as a natural deodorizer and helps soothe irritated, burned skin caused by insect bites.
Lavender (Lavandula angustifolia)
Lavender's sweet aroma helps to relax pets (and their human guardians) while its anti-inflammatory properties can protect against flea, tick, and parasite bites. If your pet is bitten, lavender helps to reduce the discomfort and itching by reducing swelling and overall discomfort. Its antibacterial, astringent, analgesic and anti-depressive properties are especially beneficial for the prevention and treatment of skin-related issues like dermatitis or skin allergies. The antiseptic and antibacterial properties also help your furry friend recover from cuts and scrapes from an extra intense play session.
Cedarwood (Cedrus)
For centuries, Cedarwood has been used by the Egyptians and Native Americans to deter ticks, fleas, mosquitos, moths, and other harmful pests as well as being used to relieve itchy, dry skin. Its wonderfully woody, fresh scent contains antihistaminic, anti-inflammatory properties that disinfect and destroy pathogens (both viral and fungal), leaving your pet smelling clean, fresh, and ready to go!
Clove bud (Syzgium aromaticum)
Clove is a very aromatic spice with sweet, fruity, and spicy notes that help to eliminate odors. With antihistaminic and anti-inflammatory properties, clove bud is great at soothing skin to stop your kitty from constant scratching and chronic hot spots. It helps disinfect wounds and works against fungal infections. Clove also helps with cough, respiratory issues, and allergies. In traditional medicine, it has been used to ward off fleas, ticks, and other biting insects.
Lemongrass (Citronella) (Cymbopogon)
Studies have shown that lemongrass has many medicinal properties, acting as anthelmintic (removes parasitic worms), antibacterial, anti-fungal, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory agent to make skin and coat healthier and stronger. The anti-inflammatory properties help with anxiety, discomfort reduction, and swelling, while its natural deodorizing properties keep your furkiddo looking and smelling great! Lemongrass also provides effective protection against insect bites eg. mites, mosquitoes, and ticks.
Chamomile (Matricaria recutita)
Chamomile is one of the best antioxidants for the skin due to its anti-histaminic, anti-inflammatory properties that help to heal wounds (including those caused by fleabites), contact allergies, defend against microorganisms, and various bacterial fungal infections. It is even known to expel parasites! This plant is praised for its therapeutic benefits and wound healing properties. Its sweet, soft floral scent also helps calm your pet's nerves (as well as their human guardians).
Eucalyptus (Eucalyptus globulus)
Eucalyptus is naturally antiseptic and can help reduce inflammation of the respiratory tract so it is great support if your furry friend has bronchitis or asthma. This plant extract has been commonly used for flea prevention due to its anti-itch, anti-parasitic, anti-bacterial, anti-inflammatory, anti-spasmodic, antiseptic and anti-fungal properties. Eucalyptus also deodorizes skin, heals wounds, smells pleasant, nourishes skin and coat, soothes skin allergies, and boosts hair growth.

Holistic Support for Growing Pets
Bringing home a new furry friend is one of the most thrilling feelings in the world! It is essential that your home is appropriately pet-proofed and that you get everything you need for the smoothest start— including the right diet plan, and supplements. Of course, when a new puppy or kitten comes home, that's when reality sets in, and you realize just how much work it is to take care of this little bundle of joy! Puppies love to chew and eat everything in sight, and kittens will hide anywhere they will fit! For all of the shenanigans that your little furbaby is bound to get into, we recommend adding natural supplements to their daily meals as soon as they are vaccinated and weaned. This proactive care plan is beneficial for supporting their overall well-being and giving them a healthy start. It may even be beneficial in slowing down or preventing disease (which may develop due to age, genetics, environment, or poor nutrition). NHV Puppy and Kitten Starter Kit contains Inulin-PK (a deworming aid), Multi Essentials (natural plant-based vitamin and mineral support), Petomega 3 (omega-3 fish oils), Plantaeris (diarrhea support) and First Aid Spray (for minor cuts and wounds).
For pet parents bringing home a purebred pet, get to know your little one’s unique history and personality with our dog and cat breed pages.
How the NHV Puppy and Kitten Health Starter Kit Support Overall Health and Vitality
Puppies and kittens have very sensitive GI tracts, and they love to lick, gobble and chew on things that they aren’t supposed to (like poop), so they are prone to having worm or parasite infections, and upset tummies. Ingredients like elecampane, celandine, milk thistle, and wormwood in Inulin-PK are very gentle aids that encourage the healthy elimination of worms and parasites while helping to maintain a healthy gut. Multi Essentials helps your pet get extra vital nutrients and minerals, which may improve nutrient absorption and metabolism, leading to increases in energy levels and overall vitality. In Petomega 3, the EPA and DHA omega 3s provide critical building blocks for healthy skin development in the coat, eye, heart, and brain, as well as support healthy immune response. Plantaeris contains herbs like thyme which promotes digestion by relaxing muscle cramping and Mullein soothes and lubricates delicate intestinal mucosa while providing gentle support for diarrhea. Ingredients like neem, aloe vera, and tea tree oil in the First Aid Spray contain natural disinfectant properties for cleaning wounds and preventing infection, and the sedative properties of California poppy help reduce stress to encourage faster healing.

Description
Holistic Support for Growing Pets
Bringing home a new furry friend is one of the most thrilling feelings in the world! It is essential that your home is appropriately pet-proofed and that you get everything you need for the smoothest start— including the right diet plan, and supplements. Of course, when a new puppy or kitten comes home, that's when reality sets in, and you realize just how much work it is to take care of this little bundle of joy! Puppies love to chew and eat everything in sight, and kittens will hide anywhere they will fit! For all of the shenanigans that your little furbaby is bound to get into, we recommend adding natural supplements to their daily meals as soon as they are vaccinated and weaned. This proactive care plan is beneficial for supporting their overall well-being and giving them a healthy start. It may even be beneficial in slowing down or preventing disease (which may develop due to age, genetics, environment, or poor nutrition). NHV Puppy and Kitten Starter Kit contains Inulin-PK (a deworming aid), Multi Essentials (natural plant-based vitamin and mineral support), Petomega 3 (omega-3 fish oils), Plantaeris (diarrhea support) and First Aid Spray (for minor cuts and wounds).
For pet parents bringing home a purebred pet, get to know your little one’s unique history and personality with our dog and cat breed pages.
How the NHV Puppy and Kitten Health Starter Kit Support Overall Health and Vitality
Puppies and kittens have very sensitive GI tracts, and they love to lick, gobble and chew on things that they aren’t supposed to (like poop), so they are prone to having worm or parasite infections, and upset tummies. Ingredients like elecampane, celandine, milk thistle, and wormwood in Inulin-PK are very gentle aids that encourage the healthy elimination of worms and parasites while helping to maintain a healthy gut. Multi Essentials helps your pet get extra vital nutrients and minerals, which may improve nutrient absorption and metabolism, leading to increases in energy levels and overall vitality. In Petomega 3, the EPA and DHA omega 3s provide critical building blocks for healthy skin development in the coat, eye, heart, and brain, as well as support healthy immune response. Plantaeris contains herbs like thyme which promotes digestion by relaxing muscle cramping and Mullein soothes and lubricates delicate intestinal mucosa while providing gentle support for diarrhea. Ingredients like neem, aloe vera, and tea tree oil in the First Aid Spray contain natural disinfectant properties for cleaning wounds and preventing infection, and the sedative properties of California poppy help reduce stress to encourage faster healing.
