Guest guest Posted December 31, 2003 Report Share Posted December 31, 2003 Hey list folks, I'm excited. I can't wait until it is " all better " to post this -- I'm too happy 1. My cat has VERY extreme gum problems. Like, big giant red areas above her upper teeth. (And I'm sure her lower teeth too, but these are harder to look at..) This is NOT subtle. (The vet tested for some possible causes and ruled them out, then wanted to do a biopsy, which I declined. That was probably a year ago or so....) So, no real DX on it, but it looks really bad. I've been worried about it a long time. 2. I've been (forcibily) putting some ozonated olive oil on my cats gums every day for about 22 days now. (That includes about 4 days I forgot to do it, and includes the first couple of days when I was happy to just get ANY ooo in her mouth). She hates the taste. In spite of that she has become resignedly cooperative--- well, at least she fights less. 3. Her gums are CLEARLY GETTING BETTER. I suspected it for a while, but today I'm sure. The front teeth have only a smaller area of red. AMAZING! Wonderful! Another month or two and her gums may just look normal. Like I said, I'm so excited, I can't wait a month to post the news Overall it is hard to say for certain what other effects the ooo is having. It seems to me she is sleeping much more than usual (although it is hard to tell with a cat, they sleep so much anyway.) She seems a little more solid to me somehow, but can't place it exactly. Other notes for cat lovers: ---I tried putting ooo on her fur (so she would have to lick it off) and this was " even worse " . She TOTALLY TOTALLY hated it. I don't think I could do that again. ---I also gave her every opportunity to eat ooo (e.g. mixed in small amount into favorite foods etc). She is not for it. It " ruins " perfectly good foods. (She won't eat it willingly). ---I am now mixing the ooo with tuna water (just a little bit, so that it is still gunky). Don't know if this really helps. ---I also considered ozonated water, and that also was impractical (water loses ozone quickly, and I can't get her to drink a lot when it is freshly ozonated, as I do.) Ozonated olive oil is also WONDERFUL on cat wounds that are not healing or are infected.... regards, Moria happy cat mom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
