Omg I can’t believe they eventually killed all those ostriches!!! And in such a cruel way 😡😡, the Canadian government is becoming more and more nazi as time passes. It’s disgusting!
You should see the video and hear the screams of the family begging CFIA to stop shooting. It will haunt you forever. It was beyond a horror movie. Damn the CFIA to Hell.
I can completely relate to pet owners refusing to stop using treats to interact with their pets. I mainly use treats for training or gaining compliance, but my partner used to feed one of my cats cheetos and such while he ate them watching TV (the other cat wasn't particularly interested except to lick off the salt from potato chips.) No matter how often I insisted he not do that because it was so bad for the cat, he couldn't say no to those wide eyes and gentle paw on the arm. That cat, although only slightly overweight, eventually succumbed to an impacted bowel.
My partner honestly believes it is better to live a "happy" life filled with junk food treats and die younger than to live a longer, healthier life without the dopamine saturation provided by junk food consumption. I've managed to keep him in line with our dogs' raw diet, but two of the four cats we recently rescued still turn their noses up at the raw and had trained my guy to refill the kibble bowl or be pestered until he does. We use the Orijen brand whole-prey dry food, which was easy enough to switch the cats to from their cheap kibble as the first step. The two older cats took to the raw pretty quickly but the younger ones (who had a traumatic first year of life) still only sniff at it, even if I leave it as their only food for two days. (But they may well have been clandestinely given some kibble without me knowing!) I finally got my guy to stop refilling the bowl every time he saw it empty and only feed twice a day the appropriate serving amount. No one is too skinny and the plump one is trimming down slowly.
Next step, if you can: 30 minute opportunities, only twice a day, to eat the healthiest stuff you can offer. Then, the food goes away until 12 (or better: 24 hours) later, when the next opp opens up. Search my podcast eps for a homeopathic cat vet colleague interview (two episodes). It may be inspiring.
Another great newsletter. Thank you. I wanted to share an observation about fat cats. I feed my cats raw with some premium canned sometimes. Last summer I was away for 7 weeks. I left as much frozen food and canned as I could but my husband went out and bought a case of canned Fancy Feast at Costco. It was easier for him to do that then look in the garage freezer for more frozen raw 😂 I came back to a severely obese female cat that was trim when I left! Since there is no kibble in my house, it had to be the FF canned. My 2 other cats faired better and I wanted to blame the recent spay that car had before I left, but now I know it was the crappy food. She has trimmed down a little since back to her raw diet but still needs to lose a little weight.
What CFIA did to those beautiful animals created by God is more than a sacrilege. Beyond the pale is an understatement. Seeing all the bodies under tarps and hearing the family scream as shots rang out made me sick to my stomach. I have been following them since the beginning of the maniacal CFIA behavior. I have no doubt the CFIA is evil, true demons working there for no sane and sentient being filled with light could do this; only those who are Luciferian filled with corruption and darkness could have made so many suffer together at one time in the most heinous ways. They are sick and twisted. What those ostriches must have felt being so frightened and not being able to escape. May the CFIA rot in the abyss they were born out of never to be heard of again. May the ostriches murdered so horribly be avenged one day.
Oh, there's no doubt, karma will serve them what they deserve in due time. No one escapes, and "just following orders" doesn't excuse anyone. There's a well known saying in the Vedic world: "There can be delay, but never injustice."
I just wanted to suggest a caveat regarding the hydrogen peroxide tip for inducing vomiting in case of chocolate ingestion: For most folks, grabbing a bottle of H2O2 means the highly diluted pharmacy variety, but stronger stuff is out there available to the public, and could be dangerous given in the quantity you suggest in your article. My parents had a bottle of 35% hydrogen peroxide in their fridge, which came to me when they passed. I already understood the different potencies and possible hazards thereof, so it was not an issue for me, but not everyone knows to check this important point before using this product.
Most people will never come across this, but even one burned esophagus in some poor dog who can't explain what's wrong is too many. Thanks!
Last week's Highwire listed every study done so far (12), comparing vaccinated / unvaccinated children. Retrospective studies compareding health records of each, including the large Henry Ford study done by a pro-vax medical center. ( https://anotherbetrayedliberal.substack.com/p/info-permaculture-and-cooties-two ).
Results are as we would expect. **Question ... could something like this be done for dogs and cats? Or would the insane rabies laws make it a potential minefield?
After all I've learned, countless vet visits, paw soaks, (no apoquel or cytopoint, but sadly too may antibiotics), enough money on vets and supplements to have traded my future for my baby's life, I'm pretty sure what the results would show. But it would be nice to have the evidence. I wish I had sued the previous vet for giving her boosters when she came in with an infection, but it's past the statute of limitations.
This HHS / FDA is moving slower than we all had hoped, but I think they're fighting the monsters as best they can. Do you see any chance of the rabies mandate being changed, to something sane - like punishing pet parents who actually have rabid animals who actually bite people or animals, instead of this pre-crime dystopian madness?
I'm grateful for my vet's understanding, but health problems still persist, and sometimes I'd like a second opinion. (I joined Alpha and will post some questions there). Afraid to go to a new vet, or even to get pet insurance. I don't want to risk the rabies shot confrontation. I don't care what her titers are for a disease she has as much chance of getting as a brutal but rare disease transmitted only by alligators who live on planet Neptune.
Does anyone know if there's pet insurance in the US that may be an option?
First, we have strong experiential evidence that NR pups (naturally reared, meaning (ideally) generations of breeding animals have avoided vaccines before your pup was conceived, ditto for raw fed, no pesticides) are wildly healthier than their cohorts who come through "rescues" where they are vaccinated multiple times w/o ever checking a titer to see who could avoid further vaccinating.
And, we've seen a large number of pet parents raise wildly healthy unvac'd dogs and cats, some using homeopathic nosodes in early life, but some just feeding properly and/or buying NR youngsters.
Will it ever be studied en masse, like the vac v unvac childhood studies? No. I'd not foresee that, no funding, etc. But talk to enough enlightened pet parents and you'll hear about the differences, as the generations are much shorter for pets than people (1-2 years vs 18-20). So, earlier gens vac'd vs later ones not, anyone doing that will certainly avow the differences are striking.
If you are besieged with anything chronic (the norm in both humans and pets now) there's nothing in conventional medicine that will ever cure your animal. And, in Alpha, you'll be urged to not "try this at home, kids" for, while homeopathy can cure chronic disease, it takes significant training and years of experience to do well. We focus on the acute diseases, which you CAN learn to treat DIY style, and I often help people who've hired a homeopathic vet for the chronic work to evaluate their progress.
Pet insurance rarely covers homeopathy or other natural therapies, it's modeled on allopathic principles and diagnostic labels. I'd not pursue that path for a moment.
If you need local attention for an animal, sometimes a "holistic" vet will work with you, but you need to ask hard questions before you hire someone.
And for the deeper curative work of homeopathy for chronic disease, you can do that long distance. I've posted this video in our Alpha discussion group as well: https://youtu.be/XyEklB8W6M0

Such unnecessary trauma! I’m so pissed off 😡
It was beyond trauma Lisa, it was agony most reprehensible.

Feeding your animal better, more nutrition food, weighing them monthly, and more exercise.

Fair, though I think it’d be a long shot for the average household to have 35% peroxide.
