Kratom for pets "maybe"


Dogs, in particular, have shown improvement with the use of Kratom as opposed to many other animals. The common belief to this is that it works best for animals that can digest greens. Cats on the other hand also show improvement but face the brunt of the side effects causing them to have problems with the use of Kratom. Scientists have recommended the use of Kratom by cats only when in extreme pain and in small doses.Animal Kratom dosages

Kratom use by pets is as much on a trial and error basis as that of humans. Most dog owners have played down the use putting into mind the size of the animal. A human being will take about 1 to 5 grams for both medical and recreational purposes. It is speculated that animals should use a fifth of this taking into account their body weight. The amount of pain that the animal is in will also be a big determinant.

Starting with very small doses under keen observation will help you find the sweet spot. Kratom use by pets is not an exact science but it has been proven that minimal use causes no effect and does not damage internal organs. It will, however, cause damage in huge doses just as it will in humans. Using body weight proportions will guide you in keeping to safe dosages for your animal. Some dogs are bigger than others are and so the weight ration needs to be accurate.

Administration of Kratom to pet's

Kratom is a bitter unpleasant to taste herbs. The is no exact science when it comes to administering Kratom to animals. This will mostly depend on fusing the most preferred snack for your animal with the drug to ensure that it is ingested. Animals will not readily ingest it and so a few measures have to be taken.

Kratom use by pets can be done using agents such as

  • sugarless peanut butter

  • snack

  • other food items that pet loves

It can be cooked together or simply dashed inside the snack. Some pet owners dip a finger into a Kratom solution and rub it onto animal gums especially when in extreme pain. Kratom is also useful when it comes to calming down dogs that have gone through trauma allowing them to reconnect with humans again. Dogs that have been through trauma will be hostile and will not want to connect with anyone fearing being hurt.
