Natural Pet Remedies Keep Your 4-legged Friends Out of Trouble

Time races on ....  Summer is upon us, and Mother’s Day and Father’s Day are history! Can Pet Day be far behind? Even if it’s not an official holiday, we are making it so, because our pets are also much-loved family members that deserve our care.  

Native Remedies has a significant amount of pet health information regarding our cute and often cuddly pets that we may sometimes overlook. They remind us that, while it’s uncommon for pets to be carriers of disease, they can be, especially if they roam around outside and then come into the home and bring with them whatever attached itself to them while outside. Think about ticks hitching a ride on your pet and then jumping onto a child, once inside. Lime disease is a feared summer-time threat and Ringworm is a very contagious fungal infection which is spread through direct contact.

Native Remedies makes these common-sense suggestions in relation to handling your pets:

*** Always wash your hands before touching your face or eating after petting.

*** Make sure your pet is up-to-date with all vaccinations.

….. and gives you some suggestions what to be aware of if something seem amiss with your cat or dog:
**** Symptoms of lime disease may include: Swollen joints, muscle pain and weakness, lesions, lameness, fever, vomiting, poor appetite, fatigue;
**** Symptoms of Ringworm: Patches or circular areas of hair loss, inflamed, scaly skin; scratching and itchiness;

**** Natural pet remedies include: Milk Thistle because it supports liver functioning and the removal of toxins, while homeopathic ingredients such as Crotalus hor., China, Ferrum phos. and Aconite support the immune system, liver and red blood cells.

**** For Ringworm Natural Remedies suggest: Shampoos and anti-fungal creams to reduce infection. Tea Tree Oil, Neem, Marigold and Witchhazel promote healthy skin and coat to support the immune system. Also they advise that you thoroughly clean areas your pets have been in contact with, such as food and bowls and sleeping area.

Natural pet remedies abound at Native Remedies; many are homeopathic and mostly preventive and their website is a powerhouse of natural pet health information and suggestions to keep yourself and your pet as healthy as possible in any situation and season. ~~ They ship worldwide and you can sign up for their Free Newsletter and get special discounts and coupons; often they offer combo packages at 10 to 20% off the original price.

Go ahead, celebrate Pet Day with treats for your furry friend and help him/her and you with natural pet remedies that will keep all of you enjoying the summer.

It's US!

We search for ways to live with the environment harmoniously and to use as little carbon footprint as possible.  That's what our website is about: making you aware and reminding you of everyday things you can do to become ever more environmentally mindful. It's about putting the "green" revolution into action.  A Letter to the Editor in our local newspaper hit the nail on the head and we are presenting it to you in its entirety:

"It's US"
"The BP oil disaster has unleashed yet another round of blaming and finger-pointing.  Above the din I hear the words from the Pogo comic strip:  'We have met the enemy and he is us.'
"We lash out at BP while we continue our gluttonous consumption of oil.  In oblivion we march out of the store with our purchases in plastic bags (made with oil) instead of reusable bags; we wash our clothes with detergents made from petro-chemicals (oil); we eagerly rip open our delivered packages filled with styrofoam (oil); we drench our lawns with synthetic fertilizer (made with oil); we drive mega-ton, gas-guzzling vehicles.
"We lash out, demanding better health care, while we poison our environment with all of the above and more as we constantly buy, use up and throw away; and as we stuff our bodies with soda and fast food.
"We demand that government stop meddling in our lives and in the affairs of big business while simultaneously lashing out at government for not averting the economic crisis, or not averting the oil spill, or for cuts to Medicare, or for the rate of unemployment.
"Each of us contributes in some way to all of our current problems.  But instead of taking responsibility, we complain and blame and vote politicians in or out as though just changing the person in the political seat is a solution.
"Norman Vincent Peale said, 'If you want things to be different, perhaps the answer is to become different yourself.'"

Still need ideas for Father's Day gifts?

Father's Day is just about upon us, but as a prograstinator, if you act fast, there is still some time.  Here are some selections to make your dad's day a good one:

If your father is a snappy dresser, an Organic Cotton T-Shirt from Yes, It's Organic, will make him look like a king, or, if you prefer, like the Super Dad he is!  Not only will it make him look good, he will also be a walking advertisement for the green movement.  ~~ Purchase $45.00 worth of items and receive a FREE Organic Cotton T-Shirt.  Double the fun, if you will and make your dad's day!

Some dads spend time in the bathroom and like grooming.  Looking and smelling good is not exclusively for women; men also take pride in their appearance.  How about a shower filter as a father's day gift that allows him to shower with water that does not smell like chlorine because it removes it and makes the water much safer and softer and saves water as well? 

Then, of course, food baskets, or, in this case, recyclable goody food bags, are always a welcome choice.  Take your pick of the foods and goodies your father likes best and know that you save 10% with the promo code of "FD2010" and Free Shipping for all orders of $100 with "SHIP4FREE."  At It's Only Natural Gifts you can combine father's day gifts for your father, stepfather, grandfather, uncle, or any other father figure you want to honor.

Now, should you be planning for a family picnic, make it green with compostable food dishes and containers from LetsGoGreen.biz.  Use Coupon code EHW20 for a 20% discount on all purchases.  That can make a big difference!

So, now we have given you a chance to do something last minute with these father's day gift ideas!

Happy Father's Day!
