Cystease Advanced Tablets - Pack of 30

Feliway Cystease Tablets - Pot of 300

Cystitis, a condition that affects the bladder of cats, can be distressing for both the cat and its owner. Cystitis is an inflammation of the bladder, often caused by bacterial infections, but sometimes it can be idiopathic, meaning the cause remains unknown. Idiopathic cystitis in cats is believed to be linked to stress. This is where Cystease for Cats can help.

Feliway Cystease is a unique supplement designed specifically for cats suffering from idiopathic cystitis or lower urinary tract infections. The active ingredients in Cystease Capsules for Cats include N-Acetyl Glucosamine, Hyaluronic Acid, and L-tryptophan.

N-Acetyl Glucosamine is a component of the bladder lining. It plays a crucial role in maintaining the integrity of the bladder's inner wall. Hyaluronic Acid, on the other hand, aids in lining the bladder wall, ensuring it remains robust and resilient against irritants. Lastly, L-tryptophan is an amino acid known for its calming and de-stressing effects on cats. Given that stress is a significant factor in idiopathic cystitis, the inclusion of L-tryptophan in Feliway Cystease makes it an invaluable asset in managing the condition.

Pexion 400mg Tablet - per Tablet

Pexion 400mg Tablet - per Tablet

400mg Pexion is a prescription medication used to manage epilepsy in dogs. Each tablet contains 400mg of imepitoin, an antiepileptic drug that helps reduce the frequency and severity of seizures.

Pexion is primarily used to treat idiopathic epilepsy, a common neurological disorder in dogs. It may also be prescribed for dogs suffering from noise phobia, as it has calming effects on the nervous system. Unlike some traditional epilepsy medications, Pexion has a lower risk of liver toxicity and can be a suitable long-term treatment option for many dogs.

How Pexion Works

Pexion 400mg contains imepitoin, a drug that acts on the brain’s neurotransmitters to stabilise electrical activity and prevent seizures.

Seizures occur due to abnormal electrical signals in the brain, causing sudden and uncontrolled movements, loss of consciousness, or behavioural changes. Imepitoin works by enhancing the effects of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), a neurotransmitter that reduces excessive brain activity. By increasing GABA’s calming effects, Pexion helps to suppress abnormal electrical impulses and prevent seizure episodes.

Pexion also has anti-anxiety properties, which make it beneficial for dogs with noise-related anxiety, such as fear of fireworks or thunderstorms.

Thyforon 400 (Forthyron) Tablet for Dogs - per Tablet

Thyforon 400 Tablet for Dogs - per Tablet

Thyforon 400 is a veterinary medication designed to treat hypothyroidism in dogs. It contains levothyroxine sodium, a synthetic form of thyroxine (T4), which replaces the deficient thyroid hormone. This condition affects a dog’s metabolism, energy levels, and overall well-being. Thyforon 400 helps restore thyroid hormone levels, alleviating symptoms and supporting normal physiological functions.

Hypothyroidism is a common endocrine disorder in dogs, typically caused by autoimmune destruction of the thyroid gland or idiopathic atrophy. The condition results in a slowed metabolism, weight gain, lethargy, and poor coat quality. Thyforon 400 is a prescription medication and must be administered under veterinary supervision.

How Thyforon 400 Works

Thyforon 400 contains levothyroxine sodium, which acts as a replacement for thyroxine (T4), the hormone normally produced by the thyroid gland. Thyroxine is essential for regulating metabolism, body temperature, cardiovascular function, and skin and coat health.

When a dog has hypothyroidism, the thyroid gland fails to produce sufficient hormones, leading to metabolic slowdown and a range of health problems. By supplementing the missing hormone, Thyforon 400 restores normal metabolic activity. The body converts levothyroxine into triiodothyronine (T3), the active form of the hormone, which supports proper organ function and energy regulation.

5mg/40mg Cardalis Tablet for Dogs - per tablet

5mg/40mg Cardalis Tablet for Dogs - per tablet

5mg/40mg Cardalis Tablets for Dogs

Cardalis 5mg/40mg is a prescription-only tablet used as part of the management of congestive heart failure in dogs. Each tablet contains two active ingredients: benazepril (5mg) and spironolactone (40mg). They work in different but complementary ways to reduce strain on the heart and help control the fluid and pressure changes that can occur with heart failure.

Congestive heart failure in dogs

Congestive heart failure (CHF) describes a stage of heart disease where the heart can no longer pump efficiently enough to meet the body’s needs. When the heart struggles, pressure can build up in blood vessels and the body activates hormone systems that attempt to maintain circulation. These responses can cause the body to retain salt and water and can make blood vessels tighten. Over time, this can lead to fluid accumulation, commonly in the lungs, and it can increase the workload of the heart.

Dogs with CHF may show coughing, faster or more laboured breathing, reduced stamina, restless sleep, reduced appetite, or swelling in the abdomen. Symptoms can vary depending on the underlying heart problem and on where fluid builds up. CHF is a condition that requires ongoing veterinary care, and treatment is usually long term.

How Cardalis works

Cardalis combines an ACE inhibitor (benazepril) with an aldosterone antagonist (spironolactone). Together, they target two key pathways that are often overactive in CHF.

Benazepril works by reducing the production of angiotensin II, a substance that narrows blood vessels and encourages salt and water retention. By reducing angiotensin II, blood vessels can relax and blood pressure can reduce. This can lower the resistance the heart has to pump against, which may improve forward blood flow and reduce congestion. Benazepril can also help limit signals that contribute to fluid retention.

Spironolactone works by blocking the effects of aldosterone. Aldosterone is a hormone that tells the body to hold on to sodium and water. In CHF, aldosterone can remain high and can continue to drive fluid retention. By antagonising aldosterone, spironolactone helps reduce sodium and water retention while conserving potassium. Aldosterone can also influence longer-term changes in the heart and blood vessels, so controlling its effects can be valuable alongside other heart medicines.

Rabbit Bristle Brush

Rabbit Bristle Brush

Brushing your rabbit is not only a great way to keep their fur neat and clean, but it also provides an excellent opportunity to bond with your pet. Furthermore, regular grooming is essential for their overall health and wellbeing.

Rabbits naturally groom themselves frequently; however, they can't always reach or effectively groom all areas, and their grooming cannot remove all loose hair. That's where you come in.

Using a rabbit brush like this one, you should regularly brush your rabbit to remove any loose hair and prevent it from matting. The frequency of brushing may vary based on the rabbit's breed and hair length. Long-haired breeds or those shedding their coats may require daily brushing.

KalmAid Kalm Aid Anxiety Remedy - 30 x Tablets

KalmAid Kalm Aid Anxiety Remedy - 30 x Tablets

KalmAid Tablets for Dogs and Cats

KalmAid Tablets are a nutritional supplement designed to help reduce stress and anxiety in both dogs and cats. They are often used to support calm and relaxed behaviour during times of unease or environmental change. KalmAid Tablets are easy to administer and can form part of a balanced approach to managing anxiety-related behaviour in pets.

KalmAid Tablets are commonly recommended for pets who experience nervousness, fear, or agitation caused by stressful events. These may include loud noises such as fireworks, thunderstorms, or traffic, as well as travel, vet visits, new environments, or separation from their owners. They can also assist pets that display general anxiety or overexcitability in daily life.

How KalmAid Tablets Work

KalmAid Tablets contain a blend of ingredients known to support the normal functioning of the nervous system and promote relaxation. The formula includes L-Tryptophan, L-Theanine, and Thiamine (Vitamin B1), each of which plays a key role in helping to maintain balanced behaviour and emotional stability in dogs and cats.

L-Tryptophan is an essential amino acid that acts as a natural precursor to serotonin. Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that helps regulate mood, sleep, and emotional well-being. By supporting the production of serotonin, L-Tryptophan can help maintain calmness and reduce anxiety-related behaviours. Pets that have low serotonin levels may be more prone to agitation or restlessness, and supplementing with L-Tryptophan can help restore balance.

L-Theanine, another key amino acid, is derived from green tea. It is known for its ability to promote relaxation without causing drowsiness. L-Theanine supports the release of calming neurotransmitters in the brain, such as dopamine and GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid), which help to reduce the body’s stress response. This allows pets to remain more composed during challenging or unfamiliar situations.

Thiamine (Vitamin B1) is vital for healthy nervous system function. A deficiency in Thiamine can lead to behavioural changes, including anxiety or confusion. By ensuring an adequate supply of Thiamine, KalmAid Tablets help maintain normal nerve activity and overall mental stability.

These ingredients provide natural support for pets prone to stress, helping them to cope with anxiety-inducing situations more effectively. KalmAid Tablets are non-sedative, meaning they do not make pets sleepy or lethargic, but instead promote a natural state of calm alertness.
