Wellness Matters: Hemp Oil, Liver Support & Natural Remedies for Feline Health | Kitty & More

Content

Prologue
Cats live in quiet dignity, often hiding discomfort until illness has advanced. Unlike dogs, who may whine or limp visibly, cats conceal pain, stress, and organ imbalances as part of their survival instinct. This makes proactive wellness practices all the more vital. True feline care is not only about responding to sickness but about preventing decline before it begins.

At Kitty & More, we believe in the philosophy of preventative wellness. Natural remedies like hemp oil and milk thistle, when used responsibly, can strengthen immunity, support organ health, and restore calm. Combined with good nutrition, exercise, and environmental enrichment, these remedies form the foundation of a long, joyful life.

1) The Philosophy of Holistic Feline Care

Holistic care considers the entire cat — body, mind, and spirit.

  • Body: Nutrition, supplements, hydration.

  • Mind: Stress management, stimulation.

  • Spirit: Comfort, love, and safety.

👉 Veterinary Note: Preventative wellness often reduces emergency vet visits by up to 30%, according to feline health studies.

2) Hemp Oil: Calming Stress, Supporting Joints, Enhancing Coats

Hemp oil has emerged as one of the most versatile natural supplements.

  • Stress Relief: Reduces anxiety during storms, travel, or vet visits.

  • Mobility Support: Anti-inflammatory properties ease joint stiffness in seniors.

  • Coat & Skin Health: Rich omega fatty acids nourish fur and prevent dryness.

Case Study: A 12-year-old rescue cat with arthritis regained mobility after six weeks of hemp oil supplementation, returning to his favorite window perch.

Do’s & Don’ts
✔ Do use pet-specific hemp oil, free of THC.
✔ Do introduce gradually to monitor tolerance.
✘ Don’t substitute hemp oil for prescribed medication.
✘ Don’t exceed recommended doses.

3) Liver Support: The Silent Guardian of Health

The feline liver is a tireless filter, processing toxins from food, medicine, and the environment.

  • Milk Thistle (Silymarin): Repairs liver cells, reduces inflammation, and boosts regeneration.

  • Antioxidants (Vitamin E, Selenium): Protect against oxidative stress.

  • Balanced Diet: Reduces liver overload from excess fats and additives.

Signs of Liver Strain:

  • Loss of appetite.

  • Yellowing eyes or gums.

  • Excessive thirst or urination.

  • Digestive upsets.

Owner Story: A cat recovering from medication-induced liver strain improved dramatically with a vet-supervised regimen of milk thistle drops from Kitty & More.

4) Natural Remedies for Everyday Wellness

Beyond hemp oil and liver support, small natural adjustments make big differences.

  • Omega-3 Supplements: Reduce inflammation, support cognition.

  • Probiotics: Balance gut health, improving immunity.

  • Chamomile & Valerian: Natural stress-relievers (in safe doses).

  • Hydration Solutions: Fountain-style water bowls encourage drinking.

👉 Pro Tip: Cats on dry kibble benefit most from hydration-focused wellness strategies, including wet food and supplements.

5) Stress & Environmental Harmony

Wellness is not only internal; the environment plays a crucial role.

  • Quiet Retreats: Provide cozy corners for retreat.

  • Routine: Cats thrive on predictability.

  • Play: Interactive toys reduce stress and obesity.

  • Scratching Posts: Allow natural expression and prevent destructive behavior.

Science Insight: Cats with access to daily play sessions show 40% lower cortisol levels, a direct measure of reduced stress.

6) Integrating Remedies into Daily Life

Consistency is key to wellness routines.

  • Add hemp oil to food once daily.

  • Mix milk thistle drops with wet food for easy administration.

  • Schedule wellness checks every 6–12 months.
