A natural way to cure your pets
A Colorado-based pet store implements an old approach to medicine.

The use of herbal medicine is an ancient practice that has been in cultures for years—centuries even. While an organic approach to medicine has been around for some time now, using herbs for your household pets hasn't. Next time your German Shepherd needs medicine for any reason, Marty Grosjean offers owners a different option—Only Natural Pet Store.


Only Natural Pet Store, which operates from Boulder, CO, was created to offer healthy, natural pet care products that are consistent with a holistic approach to pet health. All of their products are made of natural ingredients.


The organic pet store has a warehouse and features products for dogs and cats with a variety of conditions. Additionally, the site offers its clients an advice column from a veterinarian, articles, a newsletter, vet phone consultants area and discounts on food delivery.


According to Dr. Siegler, the online veterinarian for the store, homeopathic medicine is a natural healer for pets that works by eliminating the underlying problem that is causing the symptom of illness. The doctor reports in his article "Homeopathy for Pet Health," published on the Web site, that homeopathy is an over 200-year-old system of medical science based on the principle of "like cures like."


And at Only Natural Pet Store, combination remedies combine different methods of treatment to treat symptoms. Siegler stated that classic homeopath works in combination of the whole patient, the total of all symptoms including physical, mental and emotional states.


"The length of time a disease takes to resolve with homeopathic treatments is generally related to the length of time the disease has been present in the individual's system and the severity of the symptoms," writes Siegler in an article.


According to the doctor, this kind of medicine is best given 20 minutes before or after a meal. For acute injuries the treatment can be moderated. Siegler said in his article that homeopathic medicine for animals is increasing rapidly because it is so effective.


To find a holistic vet who practices near you, check the American Holistic Veterinary Medical Association or the Academy of Veterinary Homeopathy referral directories on the site.

Women Using Book To Help People and Animals

By Terri Rimmer Donations from the profits of a new book are going to help people with AIDS (Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome) and their pets. Following last year’s election, Cathy Conheim and her partner Dr. Donna Brooks were driving to their home, feeling discouraged about current events. There were “dog people” but when they arrived home they discovered a three-month-old kitten living on their property that had been injured badly. Off to the vet they sped with their young charge. An amputation was necessary to save the kitten’s life and they were told that he could no longer be an outdoor cat. They ended up adopting “Henry” and there ensued an incredible journey. Conheim started writing about the cat’s adventures as much for her own healing regarding some bad news politically as for anything else. She sent them to 20 people who sent them on, and today, Henry The Cat has 2,300 emails in ”his” letterbox in the sky. “My cat, Rhett Butler became one of Henry’s teachers and correspond...
