Recipes for Specific Conditions

Processed commercial pet foods that are full of harmful pesticides, preservatives, food colouring and chemicals have been linked to disease. If you want your pet to have a shiny healthier coat, with sweeter breath and stools then you must feed a wholesome diet. If your pet has particular problems, then there are Nutritional Treatment guides that you can follow to help it. Below are some suggested recipes. Wherever possible buy organic foods. For overweight dogs substitute brown rice for potatoes and for white rice.


Disclaimer:Each animal is an individual and must be monitored for weight gain and loss and general health on any diet regime. These diets are an aid and may not suit specific individuals and we recommend a diagnosis and thorough work up be performed by Dr. Sherebrin. Treatments will be integrative, with both traditional and complementary medicine modalities as required.


Many thanks to Drs. Elaine Cebuliak, Bruce Ferguson and Ihor Basko for the development of these recipes.

    Hi there
    I have a 4 year old indoor cat that recently had kidney damage.

    What can I feed him, in natural format, that will help keep his creatinine and uria levels down?

    Thanks,
    Leah

  • Dear Leah,
    The most important thing with kidney disease is to feed a very biologically available/digestable protein that has a low phosphorus level. Increased amounts of B-vitamins, omega-3 fatty acids (fish oil source for cats) vitamin C and E are also important. That said, many cats with kidney disease have decreased appetites, and it is important to not put them off their food. Don’y forgrt that water is an essential nutrient that cats with kidney disease require more of. A whole-food diet (cooked, raw or canned) will provide more fluid than a dry one, even if your cat is drinking a lot.
    The best thing to do is to consult with a holistic veterinarian who can recommend specific supplements and diets for your cat’s individual needs.
