Another Fly Spray Recipe For Horses

Posted: Monday, June 5th, 2006 @ 9:19 am in Horses and Ponies, Herbal Recipes | No Comments »

This recipe calls for pennyroyal. Believe it or not, Wal-Mart had some lovely pennyroyal plants this year and mine are growing and spreading beautifully. You can also buy dried pennyroyal leaf which would work as well.

Cut a large handful of pennyroyal (leaves and stems) and put them in a pint of water. Boil for 5 minutes. Strain the mixture and mix the liquid with an equal amount of mineral oil (I have used baby oil instead and it worked fine).

Eggshell Powder For Calcium

Posted: Thursday, April 20th, 2006 @ 12:20 am in Herbal Recipes | No Comments »

Whenever you use eggs, save shells. Wash shells out right after using the eggs and save them up for about a week or so until you have a “batch” worth processing.

Bake shells at 350°F for about 8-10 minutes to remove the mineral oil coating and make them brittle enough to grind. Grind to a fine powder in a food processor, blender or coffee grinder (I use a coffee grinder). Make sure there are no sharp, gritty pieces.

Catnip Makes Traveling Easier

Posted: Sunday, April 16th, 2006 @ 9:19 am in Cats & Kittens, Herbal Recipes | No Comments »

Planning a trip with your precious kitty can be a bit tricky. A yowling cat can make you Nervous in heavy traffic.

Instead of a using vet prescribed seditives, give your cat some Catnip to calm them down. Keep some loose Catnip and Catnip in a tied up sock in thier Carrier to help sooth them. I refresh the supply every 3 to 4 hours. Cats will be frisky at first and then calm down.

Dealing With Fleas

Posted: Friday, April 14th, 2006 @ 8:43 am in General Pet Articles, Herbal Recipes | No Comments »

Like other holistic health care approaches, we need to try to look at the flea issue differently. It’s not holistic to just switch to an herb from a chemical to attempt to kill all the fleas. We do not just address the symptoms that the fleas cause (Itching), but to get to the cause of the allergic reaction that the flea Bite stimulates in a vulnerable pet.

Herbal Healing For Pets

Posted: Saturday, April 1st, 2006 @ 9:00 am in Pet Health Issues, Herbal Recipes | No Comments »

I will begin by stating that you should not attempt herbal healing for your pet unless you have a good understanding of what is ailing your pet. And a good understanding of the healing Herbs. Don’t guess…..check with a veterinarian first!

There are now a lot of holistic/natural vets out there - call around and see who you can find. This advice is not meant to replace the diagnosis and advice of a licensed veterinarian. That said, I will share with you the herbal treatments that we use on my ranch. Most are simple, safe, and effective.
