This week in California, Wally and Buttercup had acupuncture for the very first time and loved it! Both of them are struggling with old age and arthritis. Buttercup has a hernia and Wally is suspected of having cancer. Even though our veterinarians say there is nothing surgically we can do for them, we can keep them comfortable, give them extra calories, provide them with plenty Sun Chlorella Algae Super Food, and give them each a good quality of life until it is time to say goodbye. Acupuncture helps with inflammation and pain management and we are so excited to add it to their routine. When they have had enough of this life, they will let us know and we will help them go with dignity and ease, but in the meantime we want their time spent here to be as comfortable and joyous as possible. Please come give them both hugs and kisses when you can!
