Cat pancreas inflammation, or pancreatitis, is a common health condition in feline kiddos. Chronic pancreatitis is the most recurrent type in cats, which results in irreversible histopathologic changes. Acute feline pancreatitis, on the other hand, is generally characterized by reversible inflammation after removing the cause.
The pancreas produces enzymes essential for the digestion of proteins, carbohydrates, and fats. When working correctly, these enzymes become active only when they reach the small intestine. In a cat with pancreatitis, they activate as soon as they’re released and begin to digest the pancreas itself, causing inflammation.
Interestingly, compared to people, where abdominal pain is considered a hallmark finding of the disease, cats with pancreatitis rarely present that symptom. Instead, cat pancreas inflammations usually cause nonspecific signs like:
The presence of one or more of these symptoms will help the veterinarian to categorize the severity of the disease. So it’s essential to keep your eyes out for any behavioral changes in your kitty.
Most cases of cat pancreatitis are idiopathic, meaning it either arises spontaneously or the root cause is unknown. However, these risk factors have been identified in the veterinarian community:
Accurate diagnosis of pancreatitis in cats requires the integration of the animal’s medical history and clinical findings. Depending on the cat’s symptoms, the following tests may be needed to rule out differential diagnoses:
For acute pancreatitis, treating potential causes is imperative. Fluid therapy, analgesics, antiemetics, nutritional support, and other symptomatic and supportive care are great examples.
On the other hand, managing chronic pancreatitis involves treating potential causes, diagnosis, and concurrent conditions. Analgesics, antiemetics, anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive treatments are commonly used in these cases.
It is often recommended that cats with pancreatitis stick to a diet with low to moderate amounts of fat and moderate levels of proteins and carbohydrates. Feel free to read more details on how to help manage pancreatitis with the right food here. Natural herbal supplements can be used alongside a balanced diet and vet-prescribed medication.
Unfortunately, once a cat has pancreatitis, they have a higher chance of having other conditions, like diabetes. NHV Mellit is an herbal formulation that is designed to help reduce inflammation of the pancreas. This same supplement can help protect other organs from the severe imbalances that are triggered throughout the body due to diabetes. Lastly, Mellit also has properties that may help control blood sugar levels.
Cat pancreatitis is also often accompanied by inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), cholangitis, or both. Thus, NHV TumFlora may be helpful. Tumflora is a blend of herbs that helps ease symptoms of IBD in cats, including reducing acid buildup. Some of the herbs present in this formulation, such as Fennel, have properties that are beneficial for digestive problems, relaxing spasms, relieving cramps, and helping to restore appetite.
In addition, pancreatitis may trigger hepatic lipidosis. In this way, NHV Milk Thistle would also be helpful. Many studies have shown the effects of Milk Thistle on the pancreas, suggesting that silibinin, an antioxidant derived from the plant, may be therapeutically beneficial for treating different pancreatic issues.
Lastly, NHV Turmeric contains curcumin, a powerful antioxidant that can help reduce inflammation and relieve the uncomfortable symptoms of pancreatitis.

Pancreatic Support for Dogs and Cats
No one wants to get the news that their sweet four-legged companion is suffering from pancreatitis (inflammation of the pancreas). The pancreas is a squishy, pink gland (that lays to the right of your furkiddo's stomach and is connected to the small intestine) has two main jobs, which are:
1.) To release digestive enzymes to breakdown proteins, carbs and fats (they become active once they reach the small intestine)
2.) To secrete insulin/glucagon to regulate blood sugar levels
Pancreatitis disrupts the normal functioning of digestive enzymes - typically, these enzymes are stored in their inactive form and are only released when needed. When the pancreas is inflamed, enzymes are released and can digest the pancreas itself, leading to severe pain and inflammation. Further inflammation can lead to other diseases like diabetes mellitus (disruption of insulin/glucagon pathways) or inflammation of surrounding tissues (eg. the liver and small intestine). Supporting your pet with cat or dog pancreatic support supplements can help improve their symptoms and put your furry friend back on the path to recovery.
There Are Two Types of Pancreatitis:
Acute Pancreatitis: can happen suddenly, with no previous sign of the condition. It must be treated as quickly as possible and can be life-threatening to other organs if the inflammation spreads.
Chronic Pancreatitis: develops slowly over time and can be a result of repeated attacks of severe pancreatitis.
How NHV Remedies Support Pets With Pancreatitis
It’s difficult to pinpoint the exact cause of pancreatitis. Possible causes could be a high-fat diet (specific to dogs), trauma to the organ (eg. a car accident), certain types of medication, or stress from a chronic illness like hypothyroidism, diabetes mellitus, or inflammatory bowel disease (specific to cats). Symptoms can include lethargy, appetite loss, weakness, abdominal pain, dehydration, vomiting, or diarrhea. To get your furkiddo tested for acute or severe pancreatitis, contact your vet to run some diagnostic tests like a SPEC (specific pancreatic lipase test), ultrasound or a radiograph.
Treatment for pancreatitis often includes intense hydration therapy and supports for pain and nausea. Your little one may require a few sleepovers at the vet so that they can benefit from IV fluids that aid with circulation and encourage the pancreas to heal naturally. NHV’s Pancreas Imbalance Kit 1 is specially formulated to help relieve discomfort, help with inflammation, support the pancreas functioning, as well as support other vital organs like the liver and kidneys. Mellit works to soothe pancreatic inflammation, is beneficial for healthy enzyme function and aids to regulate blood sugar levels. Meanwhile, Milk Thistle, supports the liver and encourages the healthy elimination of toxins, and strengthens immunity. Turmeric contains many effective properties that can soothe discomfort, inflammation and support healthy liver function.
