About Cat Allergies

Allergies are a common illness affecting cats. They are caused by changed lifestyles, including food and environment. Cat allergies are characterized by the body's abnormal reaction to internal or external stimuli and are caused by many different factors. Allergic reactions can be different from one cat to another, even for the same allergen. It is important to try to find the cause for cat allergies, even though it can be difficult. Along with working towards finding the cause, the use of herbs is recommended to ease the symptoms, and also to strengthen the immune system.

Common Symptoms of Cat Allergies

• Hot spots or eruptions on your cats skin
• Breathing difficulties
• Itching and inflamed toes or ears
• Excess mucous production in nasal passages

What is Nettle-Eyebright Gold?

Nettle-Eyebright Gold is a combination of herbal ingredients designed by our holistic veterinarian for catallergies (allergic rhinitis or hay fever). The herbs, Nettle and Eyebright are two of the main ingredients and have been used extensively for natural support of seasonal allergies. Other herbs in this formula help to support the immune system and the specific reactions experienced by dogs when airborne antigens affect them.

What is Nettle-Eyebright Gold used for?

Allergic rhinitis (or hay fever), a condition commonly experienced by humans, can be experienced by cats in much the same way. Tissues in the nasal passages become inflamed and itchy. You may notice your cat rubbing his or her nose to gain relief. Watery, red eyes, sneezing and excess nasal mucous are all common signs of allergic rhinitis. Springtime symptoms are usually caused by tree pollens, while weeds and other plants like grasses, can be the culprits as the weather gets warmer in summer and fall months.

Other substances cdan also elicit the same types of symptoms. Fungal spores and molds may be present indoors, particularly in damp areas like basements or garages. Dust or dust mites are common triggers and are found in carpets, bedding, window coverings, mattresses and furniture covered with fabric. Sensitivities are not experienced the same way by everyone or every pet but rather, are unique to each individuals immunes system. It may be helpful to avoid having your pet in areas (outdoor or indoor) that seem to make the symptoms worse. An air purifier indoors can also be beneficial.

when pollens or other microscopic particles are inhaled by cats with overly sensitive immune systems, a chain reaction occurs. A sensitized immune system will produce antibodies to combat the antigens. The antibodies cause other chemicals to be produced in the body, called mediators. One common mediator is histamine. It is the mediators that have an affect on the tissues, particularly on the nose, eyes and respiratory tract.

Nettle-Eyebright Gold targets this reaction in four ways:

1. By providing natural anti-histamines
2. By supporting the overall health of the immune system
3. By providing ingredients that support the comfort of nasal passages, decrease excess mucous production and support the respiratory tract
4. By helping with inflammation that can cause discomfort
