Herbs and Conventional Care Can Work Beautifully Hand-In-Hand!

Learn how Nettle Seeds helped get young lurcher, Pebbles, get back on track!

Most of our patients on nettle seed are elderly cats with chronic kidney problems. Pebbles, however, was a very different case. Usually a very speedy adolescent lurcher, Pebbles went into acute kidney failure and jaundice after a nasty infection probably transmitted by a squirrel bite.

With the support of her owner and very close collaboration with her local vet, we were able to offer herbal support from the fairly early stages of the disease. Pebbles recovered with the help of both intensive care and a holistic approach including herbs. Her prospects looked bleak at the start, and her blood results were rather worrying, but we are delighted to report that she has regained full liver and renal function.

Nettles have a long history of use in herbal medicine, known for their healing properties. With expert advice and access to full clinical history, this wonderful herb can be incorporated into animal treatment plans. Our advice would be, don’t underestimate the power of herbs working alongside the best of conventional care and treatment.
