Herbs! Added to their foods! I like herbin backyards **Tina's ❤️ (rest in peace sweet girl) Vitamins B12, vitamin e , selenium (Capsules sold over the counter .. I'd mix contents together into her yogurt and give 2xs daily) https://amzn.to/2vQ8H6K (Poly-vi-sol) {without iron) 1 dropperful daily Added oregano, herbs (https://amzn.to/2OHsvAb (herbin' backyards herbs) worked great for me) into her food. HYDRATION is so important! I always watered down her food because she had hard time getting to her water bowl. Also-- I alternated between these two every 4 hours ... https://amzn.to/2KZ7QFC (Colloidal silver) 10ppm ten drops in her food. https://amzn.to/2vQ8H6K (Hypericum 30x) two tablets dissolved into a shot glass of distilled water. I'd give 6 drops into food. Alternate colloidal silver and hypericum (st johns wart) every 4 hours. Can also give on bread! **Again I am no doctor and went off of recommendations and some research and I really feel it's the reason she stayed with me so long.
