You may be wondering what the term "holistic" means when it comes to your pets and companion animals. Lately, this term has been thrown around as synonymous with "natural," "organic" or "healthy." It goes without saying that, although these terms are somewhat related, they do not mean the same thing.
Holistic health is beyond looking at symptoms, but rather looking at the entire animal, its environment, diet, sleeping area, habits, and other factors to see the whole (or "holistic") story of what that animal or pet needs the most. |

Aloe (internal or external) To soothe upset digestive tracts and help restore mucous membranes. Also helpful for external minor cuts, burns, rashes and irritations.
Vitamin C Its reputation as a powerful vitamin helpful for many conditions is well deserved. Essential to the production of collagen (the glue that keeps cells together), vitamin C is also a natural anti-histamine, anti-inflammatory and anti-biotic. Dogs and cats can make their own vitamin C, but larger amounts are helpful in times of stress or illness.
