Additional Support Tips

Arthritis gradually becomes worse over time and can become debilitating to your cat. To help with this condition, keep your cat away from cold or damp areas and provide opportunities to stimulate them with exercise.

Also, talk to your vet about means of joint discomfort relief for your cat. Adding holistic supplements, such as those by NHV to your vet’s conventional treatment plan, along with other holistic therapies like hydrotherapy and acupuncture is an effective way to provide excellent cat joint support.

Peanut the cat was limping very badly when his mom came to us. But in just a few short months of using NHV along with regular acupuncture, he was climbing to the tallest part of his 7 foot cat tree!

Natural Support for Cat Skin Allergies and Hot Spots

What Is A Hot Spot?

A hot spot (aka moist dermatitis) is an inflamed skin lesion that may be further irritated by licking, scratching and chewing, often turning red, becoming infected, and 'hot' to the touch. Kitties are very sensitive and may have very delicate skin, so even small changes in their diet or environment can strongly affect them. The inflamed skin can be very uncomfortable for your kitty, and they may even experience fur loss.

Causes of Hot Spots on Cats

A few factors can cause hot spots in our feline friends, like food sensitivities, allergens in the environment, biting insects, and infections. Kitties with longer coats may be more susceptible to hot spots, especially when the weather is humid (like in the summer months). In most cases, hot spots are caused by allergies to the environment or something in their diet. Cat skin allergies most often develop on their paws, face, ears, front legs, and belly, but itchiness all over the body is common as well.

How NHV's Natural Cat Allergy Spray Relieves Inflamed Skin

If your kitty is licking, biting, or scratching a specific area, they may be experiencing a great level of discomfort. Ingredients like Chamomile, Marigold and Aloe vera are beneficial for soothing skin lesions, reducing swelling and easing discomfort. The immunostimulatory properties in Ouch Away help regulate a healthy histamine response to rebalance the immune system and help prevent infection. Herbs like Tea Tree oil and Lemongrass are effective topically against biting insects (fleas, mites, mosquitos and flies) and fighting infections, while ingredients like Rosemary encourage hair regrowth (recovery from alopecia).

How Cats Get Allergies
