Do you know that natural flea control is the best way to treat your pet for fleas? Read on and I will explain to you the advantages of a natural remedy as opposed to the products that are usually prescribed by veterinarians.
You probably know that it is necessary to treat a flea infestation as soon as detected. Fleas attach themselves to your animals when they need a transfusion. They will suck your pet’s blood, causing him debilitation and sometimes anemia. They also harm their skins, sometimes causing skin infections which have to be treated as well. A severe skin infection left untreated could cause the death of an animal.
If you’ve talked to your vet about why your pet eats grass or looked for answers online or in books, chances are you’ve found many different answers from different sources. Some sources warn of extreme danger, and some simply state that this is a natural thing, and you shouldn’t worry about it. So, what information do you trust? Well, the first step is to separate fact from theory or just plain fiction. That’s not as difficult as it may sound. Let’s look at the most asked question:
Garlic: it is highly wrong assumption that by giving your pet garlic in the food, you can get rid of flea. It can damage your pet digestive system but cannot damage fleas. So don’t try to use garlic in your pet foods.
Is grass an essential part of my pet’s diet?
What we know:
- Our pets need fiber as part of a balanced diet.
- Grass is mostly fiber.
- Cows graze. Horses graze. They don’t throw up when they eat grass. (Rumination doesn’t count.)
- Horses, cows, sheep and other regular grazers have special enzymes in their systems that help digest grass.
- Dogs and cats don’t have the above-mentioned enzymes in their systems.
- Dogs and cats are very likely to throw up after eating a quantity of grass.
- If ingested grass isn’t regurgitated by a cat or dog, it will be passed, undigested, in the stool.
- Feral cats and dogs, as well as wild canine and feline animals will graze occasionally and it seems to have the same effect on them.
- Dogs and cats that aren’t allowed to eat grass don’t suffer any directly related ill effects.
What we might conclude:
While grazing might be tasty or simply habitual for your dog or cat, it doesn’t appear to be necessary for good health. Fiber comes in many forms and if your pet is getting a well-balanced diet, it will include more suitable sources of fiber.
Grooming/Bathing: you should comb your pet on regular basis and trim it’s hair. It will also reduce the risk of presence of fleas and you can easily control fleas
