ABOUT Dr. Katie Woodley - The Natural Pet Doctor
=====
Dr. Katis is a small animal integrative veterinarian who developed a passion for natural medicine while I was living in New Zealand. Her vet career was lucky enough to begin in the beautiful country of New Zealand. She was able to see how living off the land by growing our own vegetables and raising our own animals was the way to live the healthiest versions of ourselves. Her pets were lucky to have lots of open space to run around in and were always at the beach or the river.
When they moved back to the States five years ago, her husband, unfortunately, developed an autoimmune disease. As they researched natural medicine options for him to avoid the horrible side effects of the treatment options his doctors were providing him, Dr. Katie realized that she was doing a disservice to her animal patients by not offering these holistic options to them. She began down the integrative medicine route and has never been happier. Through nutrition, acupuncture, herbal medicine, essential oils, and supplements, every animal can achieve optimal health or feel their best, even with a chronic illness or disease like cancer. She currently has a certification in acupuncture, food therapy, and Chinese herbal medicine and is continuously learning about other natural modalities and growing her knowledge base daily!
She started this business to provide pet parents with more resources for natural medicine advice and care because we need to increase awareness of how amazing natural medicine truly is! Dr. Katie's mission is to ensure that all pet parents have access to herbal medicine, supplementation, and nutritional advice throughout their pet's lifetime. One of her greatest joys is the opportunity to collaborate with both pet parents and other veterinary professionals to ensure access to all available integrative options for pet health care.

Thanks for reaching out and happy to have you here!
Hi! I'm also researching for my cat's eye infection, and just ordered Vira-X (with fingers crossed). Did you try any of Dr. Woodley's recommendations? Has anything helped?
Thank you so very much. We are helping these babies as much as we can and the natural way is the best I know and this information helps so very much.
Thank you. I have a kitten. And my friend asked me to watch her kitten. They both have eye infections. Your video helped.
I'd like to mention homeopathic remedy, Euphrasia. This remedy has always worked for me when my cats have an eye affection.
Yes, euphrasia or eyebright is another great remedy that you can use! These are just a few common ones that are easy to find to help!
❤😮🎉
Are those eye drops?? And can you buy it over the counter? Thank you.

gREAT MY long haired cat just started this yesterday. WE USUALLY use natural remedies.
GOD bless you Dr.🙏🙏
Thank you Dr. Katie, this is very timely as I noticed my kitty had some eye discharge this morning. It’s been very windy here recently & I think it may be an irritation. The eye itself & conjunctiva looks fine so will try your excellent suggestions right away!
Thanks for watching and I’m happy to hear that you can start using some of these things right away. Thinking of you and your cat and hope your kitty’s eye feels better soon❤️

Thank you much, Doc!
you're welcome! Glad that you found it helpful!
Very informative..Thank u!!
Glad it was helpful!
Thanx so much!
Very helpful information. I don't like giving my cat a lot of the medications they prescribe, because there are always side effects that I don't feel comfortable with. I'm definitely subscribing to your channel
Thanks for being here and taking time to watch our video. What are some of the health topics you'd like to learn more about?
I totally agree with you. I’ve tried quite a few remedies, mainly with my dogs, and have save them from getting antibiotics; actually homeopathy works better than anything a vet can give to Lady - she gets a flare up, I get the ledum P. out…by the next day, no lameness. CBD for arthritis stiffness/pain. P.E.A for aches (I give daily, needs accumulative effect) All these thing are alternative treatments. And keep your animals healthy. I’m just now learning what to give our cats :-). Dr Woodley’s video was great! I’ve subscribed also.
Thank you
Is green tea suitable also ?
Thanks a lot doctor 🎉

Thank you so much for these tips, it came to me at the right time as one of my babies currently has an irritated eye. ❤
Thanks for watching. I'm glad it was helpful for your pet.
We appreciate you watching this video and wanting to learn more for your pets.
Thank you for the video. My cat had surgery above the eye by the lid. This was for drainage of an abscess. He is antibiotic resistant and any topical drop and ointment cause stinging and further information. Considering it is so close to the eye, what can I put on the swollen infected wound site? Convenia has been given 3 times but no remedy and tested negative for Feline Leukemia. Thank you
Tx.. good job..what if one eye is shut? He can open it sometimes..but he’s been closing it past few days
Thanks so much ! It really helps kittens chamomile tea & coconut oil work 😊
You're very welcome. Thanks for sharing your experience with using these natural remedies. That's great to hear!!
You need to state dosages
Dr, hello. My cat has a third eyelid showing up and almost covering half of her eyes. What should I do? I can't afford to go to the vet that's why I'm trying to see if home remedies would work. Thank you so much. I hope you will help me to lessen my worries. 😭🙏🏻
Do I just rub the chamomile pad around his eye?
My cat was under iron suppliement due to anemic condition he was giving mediron n hepamust but that suppliment made him drowsy like alcoholic pesron couldn't open his eyes wide we stopped giving him those suppliment but now his eyes became watery .... is ur tip gonna be ok in this condition too
yes it helped me but i am going to try it now.. let you know the results.. my small kitten has her eyes with puss. everytime i clean her eyes with warm water puss comes out. i do have antibotics which i am giving her and vicks under her chest and keeping her warm,.
Thank you - the kittens are strays, I was hoping to find something to put in the water.
Especially if you got a half feral cat like mine that won't let you do that
My kitten have eye infection 😢 and her one eyes is damage and that couse of blind
I have a 4 week old kitten I just found with crusty eyes. Can I use this ?
I HAVE 3 CATS THAT I RESCUED, ONE IS VERY OLD NOW AND HE DEVELOPED CATARATS IN ONE EYE, STARTED A YEAR AGO, AS A SMALL OPACITY IN THE EYE, BUT NOW IT'S COVERING UP TO 60 % OF THE EYE, WHAT CAN I DO TO HELP HIM, I DON'T HAVE ANY MONEY FOR EXPENSIVE VISITS OR TREATMENT, MY FAMILY IN VENEZUELA DEPEND ON WHAT I CAN SEND THEM TO SURVIVE THAT BRUTAL REGIME, I NEED ADVISE /HELP WITH THIS MATTER. THESE CATS CAME TO MY LIFE OVER THE YEARS IN DIFFERENT CIRCUMSTANCES, I DO NOT ABANDONE ANYONE PERIOD,, PLEASE SOMEONE HELP ME OUT,
Thank you, I needed to see this. My furbaby is 15.5 years old and has a horrible eye infection. I have taken him to the vets, and all they have given him is Prednisone BID. They haven't really diagnosed what is happening with his eye, as it is swollen, watery, and now has what appears to be a red zit on the upper eye lid. I am going to try what you have suggested.
Hi Kim, I hope ur cat alright . my cat’s eye watery and swollen these remedy works? And can you suggest good dry and wet food for them? Am new parent of my cats so
@@rajalakshmiparadise812 Fancy Feast Classic Pate, is a good, low-carb wet food. As for dry food, meat should be the first ingredient. There are expensive brands, but Rachael Ray makes one (Nutrish) that is cost-effective. 😺💖
@@josie4peace thank you very much
You might try applying castor oil to the eye area. I used it when my dog had poison ivy to his face. Cleared it in 4 days. Just moisten a cotton ball and wipe it over the eye area. God bless you.
@@melodyclark4347 thank you very much
I tried a salt water. Tomorrow I’ll get chamomile tea
Please let me know how things go? Thank you
What about one drop of sovereign colloidal silver 10ppm in each eye a few times a day for two to three days? Thank You
Colloidal silver is another option. We still have to support our pet's internal immune system since most of these issues are due to viruses and a strong immune system is key to help prevent it from recurring.
@@thenaturalpetdoctor ok thank you so much for responding! Can I ask you questions related to Giardia? Do you think Turkey Tail mushrooms are another great way to boost the immune system? I won’t get into the long storey of why it took so long to figure out our adopted kitty has giardia. She has had it a minimum of 7 months being with us and she is 13 mo old. She may have had it since birth as she showed up at the shelter at 6mo of age with poop on her bum. They never mentioned anything to us about checking for parasites. Not a topic that I had any knowledge on. We just thought a previous stressful home environment. We tried herbals from Amber Natural Z (immune plus + KT Ditty) with no luck and they caused diarrhea from soft stool in the end. We tried S.Boulardii and that caused explosive diarrhea. This led us to the holistic vet. We did 8 ozone treatments plus Fenben. We have done a 5 day round of Fenben, 7 day break, 5 day round of fenben (b/c poop was still soft and smelly), 14 day break … We had a few good firm stools, no smells but the last few stools (every 2 to 3 days RAW fed) have a bit of softness at the end of the log and then a very small patty and the smell is starting to come back. She is finally onto RAW for past 3 weeks. I cannot put her through anymore rounds of Ozone as they are stressing her out the last 3 treatments even with using Rescue Remedy and a very diluted YL Copiaba down the spine (1 drop in a 15ml bottle - use only one drop of this). I am thinking Turkey Tail Mushrooms in place of the Ozone … or is there something else I should look at? I am also thinking to use Adored Beast Liver tonic during the next round of meds. This is the first time we have used this holistic vet (only option in town) and she has said a few things leaving me questioning our discussions. Is another round of Fenben going to do anything or do we have to go to an antibiotic at this point? Her system is just not fighting this off and we are so stressed out that I sit here crying most days…I just want her better but so afraid to cause harm. I really appreciate your help and trust your opinion and all the info you provide to us is so awesome! Once this is all done we will look at the kittybiome testing and FMT capsules. Then if needed, the innovative pet lab feline leaky gut test but it isn’t in Canada just yet but hopefully on it’s way. Do I just go based off her poops to determine if we do the innovative pet lab test or just do it even if good poops?
My cats eye isn't watery or teary. It's just semi closed? Can I still rinse it with camomile or coconut oil or saline?
rinsing the eye out with saline or camomile tea, cooled would probably help flush out what is causing the irritation. Plus help with the irritation also
Dr. Steve from veterinary secrets suggests a few other options… you can also brew green tea, let it cool, drop it directly into your cats eye. He also shows to make a honey and water solution that you can drop into your cats eyes. Then he shows dropping castor oil into the eye to lubricate and soothe (he even put it into his own eye). Do you agree with these options as well? Thank You
Personally, I'd hesitate with some of these options, but there are a lot of options to try out there. I hope you found the recommendations I made helpful!
@@thenaturalpetdoctor Thank you again for your reply! Yes very helpful, sorry I didn’t say that! Sometimes when issues arise, we don’t have these things in the house so just like to know if you agree with the other options, as I trust your opinion. I love all the videos you have put out! The only one that felt safe to me was the castor oil to provide lubrication and a barrier to stop the irritation. Can we put the cooled camomile tea as drops directly into the eye or stick with a distilled water if we want to flush the eye?
What about Cholodial Silver ? Do these cat remedies work for Dogs?
Colloidal silver is another great antibacterial. Make sure to use a good brand. One of the ones I like and trust is Adored Beast. You can use these remedies with dogs too. Dogs are less likely to have viral infections compared with cats, so I wouldn't reach for lysine with dogs.
@@thenaturalpetdoctor what brand do you recommend that’s Available on amazon?
How much salt a water? And what kind of salt?
She mentioned 1 teaspoon salt (I would use sea or Celtic/himalayean salt, not your grocery store white salt) to 1 cup of filtered water.
Redmond Salt is a great brand to check out.
Yes Im very happy to agree with you, I have been giving homeopathic remedies for my pets, that they have been saved from severe condition. Its simple and effective. Recently Homeopathic book was published in India on veternary section which reveals miracle healings of pets that were said to be terminal by Allopaths.
Celine solution
She did pronounce it a little differently, but it is Saline Solution
What is the cat's eyes inflamed and a little red but there's no watery eyes
I thought oil was bad for cats and can destroy their liver.
Hell yeah! 14 year old cats that are acting like kittens till this day. They're brothers and unfortunately have been exposed to herpes!
Happy to hear that your cats are feeling great! Most cats have been exposed, but when they have strong immune systems, they can keep the virus at bay. Just like us and cold sores! One of my go-to supplements that I love is Standard Process Feline Immune Support if you are dealing with any flareups. Here's the link to check it out: thenaturalpetdoctor.standardprocess.com/products/feline-immune-system-support
I have that problem with my dog though
He's not being very cooperative. He acts like he's got something in his eye. He won't let me do anything. I'm just making him mad
I have a female tabby cat 4 years old...the third eyelid is halfway over each eye I took her to the vets 1st vet says worms so she had a worm tablet... Waited! Eyes still have the third eyelid system...she shows zero signs of illness eats and drinks as normal...took her to another vets after examining her that vet said she has nothing wrong with her ? This has been going on for three weeks now and not a clue so I'm in two minds to go to another vets practice see what they say I don't think any vets are any good... what are your thoughts ?
I don't know if this will help but my brother's cat had this. His Vet prescribed an ointment for the eye. Erythromycin 0.5% Oph Oint 3.5g. 3 x daily for 10 days. It worked for his cat.
@@sandyshores5550 thanks for the reply! I'll buy some and hopefully it will work. Eyes still the same so first vet is no good she doesn't have worms. As for the second vets well they are obviously faking a living I just bombarded there reviews website with pictures... I'll try this eye ointment.
Thank you
You’re welcome! Thanks for watching🥰
