Re: Kitty bladder issue?
Hey Eme,
Sorry to hear your cat is sick, thats bad since they can't tell us what's wrong. This was taken from the last part of the SYL Manual.
"Taking care of your cat."
Interviewer: You haven't mentioned a cat story....
Schulze: Okay, the two main things that I see with cats is urinary tract infections) a lot of cystitis, inflammation of the urinary tract) and also stones (kidney stones).
First of all, they have linked it to preservatives put into the cat food, like nitrites. They are loaded with those. This is the problem. Again, it goes back to our basics; it's either the animal didn't get enough exercise or it is what we are feeding it. Those are really feeding problems with a cat. I would have thousands of those.
The first thing you have to do is get the right food going into the animal. Stop all commercial food and get immediately on your own food program.
Get it on some super nutrition and of course garlic is the greatest antibiotic for the urinary tract. It stops the infection that the cat probably has and then go to your urinary tract herbs.
Dogs and cats will also drink herb tea. If you have a lot of urinary tract inflammation with a cat, you can get it into the marshmallow type tea.
If you want to get it to pee more, use your diuretic herbs like uva ursi. If it's only a little infection, you can use chopped up juniper berries. You can have them eat the raw herb. You know, I find that cats like it. If they don't, mix a little bit of catnip in it. Caps love catnip and you can mix catnip in with any dried herb powder and they will go for it.
Interviewer: So marshmallow root is for inflammation?
Schulze: It is a good soother for the urinary tract. If you want them to pee more, go to the uva ursi.
Interviewer: What about parsley? Will parsley root work for them?
Schulze: Sure. Parsley root and leaf will make them pee more and is good for the infection. Just go right with all the same herbal treatments that you would for a person.
Hope you've got some of this stuff on hand. Hope she gets well soon. Please let us know what you do and how it works. ;)
Blessings.
