We dare you not to fall in love with Roo and his piercing blue eyes. This sweet fur baby has skeletal deformities from head to toe and internal issues believed to be caused by a congenital condition called Mucopolysaccharidosis, also known as MPS. Roo was brought to his rescuers covered in fleas and ticks and he is now living with the best foster family – @triumphant_teagan, he’s being pampered with love and care.
Thanks to the help of the #NHVpets community, we were able to give back and donate supplements through the #NHVnaturalselfie campaign. Due to Roo’s condition, it’s very hard work for him to move positions, so we decided to donate 3 different supplements to get him started and help support his mobility issue. Old Timer to reduce discomfort and support his joints, Turmeric to support his overall health, joints, and heart, and Yucca to reduce inflammation, discomfort and support his digestion.
Roo is doing amazing! We started the yucca and he gobbled it right up in his food. I can’t tell you how happy I was about that! For a little guy, he’s VERY picky about stuff being added to his food. Roo is doing so well on his supplements! Thank you so much. I started adding in the last of the supplements, Turmeric, a few days ago. So far so good!
Update June 2019: Besides MPS, Roo has also an enlarged heart, so on his second batch of supplements we decided to donate a bottle of Hearty-Heart to support his heart function too.
Along with the supplements Roo’s foster mom is also using the Assisi Loop Lounge to help reduce inflammation and improve his movements. The goal is to make him as comfortable as possible for as long as possible. His foster mom is providing love and quality life to this sweet little baby. Roo is a little fighter, a heart charmer, and a purring ball of love who knows nothing but to be happy and we just love to follow and be part of his inspiring journey.
Being an MPS fighter with skeletal deformities is not stopping him to steal hearts though.
There’s no way for me to prepare myself for losing him… I have moments of great sadness, but I am confident that he knows he’s so very loved and cherished. In the end that’s really all any of us could ever hope for. I really do believe your supplements and his Assisi lounge are truly helping him. He stretches out his body now and he’s so playful … he wasn’t when he first got here.
When bringing a rescue fur baby home, look out for these special little ones. We have lots of supplements and remedies that can help them live a happy comfy life. These special fur kiddos have nothing but love to give back to you, they will fill your hearts with gratitude and joy in a second. Special thanks to @noah_mylittleman for bringing baby Roo to our attention.
Update! Just before you head to bed this beautiful fall day (11/06/2019), here’s some happy news… Baby Roo’s heart is not enlarged anymore. ❤️🙏🏻😌 If all goes well this special kitty boy might be able to get surgery for his condition (MPS). You already sent so many selfies!!! Keep sending your love to this darling cat.

NHV Yucca is used for cats as a supplement to provide nutrients, and may be helpful for discomfort, inflammation, and to increase or balance the appetite.
NHV Yucca is used for cats as a supplement to provide nutrients, and may be helpful for discomfort, inflammation, and to increase or balance the appetite.
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.
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.
Yucca - Commonly used for supporting arthritis, as an anti-inflammatory, nutritive, antitumor, and digestive supplement.

Pet Expert Tip For Heart Disease In Cats
Dr. Hillary Cook, DVM, CVA and holistic veterinary partner at NHV says that optimal weight maintenance is probably one of the most important goals that pet parents should work toward in managing cardiac disease in their pets.
Hawthorne – Is considered to be one of the best herbs for fortifying the heart and supporting your veterinarian’s recommended cat heart disease treatment. Hawthorn acts as a cardiotonic, which helps stabilize the heart’s activity based on what the feline heart needs; either to be stimulated or reduce activity. Hawthorn has traditionally been used for heart failure, heart palpitations, heart weakness, and for the circulatory system. Hawthorne works by dilating the vessels and the coronary arteries, which improves the metabolic process and the blood supply to the heart and the rest of the cat’s body. It helps regulate your cat’s heart rate, coronary flow, and blood pressure. Hawthorne also has a soothing and sedative effect, which helps reduce stress.
Balsam Poplar – Stimulates circulation and supports blood flow. Balsam Poplar has been popular, historically, amongst the indigenous population in North America for coughs. It’s also been used as food for horses. Balsam Poplar has strong anti-inflammatory and may help with discomfort.
Hops – Helps relax tension and anxiety while supporting circulation.
Valerian – Helps manage heart palpitations and regulates the nervous system. Valerian plays a vital role in the nervous system by gently calming the nerves, which helps a cat's body to physically relax.
Woody Betony – This herb is one of the most valued in herbal medicine and has been used for centuries for over forty ailments! It acts as a mild stimulant to the heart. It is a nerve tonic that nourishes and builds vital energy. Woody Betony contains glycosides, which may help reduce blood pressure in cats, aiding in cat heart disease treatment.
Lobelia – Causes immediate relaxation and expansion of the respiratory system that allows oxygenated blood to flow freely. It helps with circulation and reduces agitation in cats.
European Mistletoe – Helps control tachycardia, relaxes spasms and hypertension. A cardiotonic that has been used for centuries.
Motherwort – Has a strengthening effect, especially on a weak heart. It helps sooth and relaxes the heart muscle. Motherwort helps maintain a regular heartbeat and lowers blood pressure, stress, and anxiety.
Pulsatilla – This herb is known to be antispasmodic, which is considered to be beneficial in cat heart disease treatment by relaxing the heart muscle and helping to soothe and relieve coughing. Pulsatilla also has a sedative effect that helps ease coughing.
