​The story of Phichai - 8 week old Korat kitten
Phichai, an 8 week old Korat kitten acquired an unusual fracture of the tibia after some playful romps with litter mates. Her breeder contacted me after discussions with her vet , about homeopathic support to “fast track” the healing process and to help support Phichai emotionally in adjusting to her leg in a cast. The challenge with Phichai was that she was still growing and whilst the healing of the fracture was critical , we still needed to promote normal bone growth and development. A tailored flower essence remedy was made up using Bach and Australian Bush Flowers to help with the adjustment to the new arrangement. This helped greatly. Homeopathically we used Symphytum in varying potencies, 30C and 6c. Calc Phos both homeopathically and in Mineral Tissue salts was also used. Her breeder was shown some bodywork techniques to also support the muscles and connective tissues. The fracture healed in remarkable time with the cast being removed at 3 weeks. I am pleased to say that Phichai is doing well and has made a full recovery and upon x-ray , the fractured leg is hardly detectable and she has full function in her leg.

Hi  Helen  -  Just  an  update,  I  have  started  using  a  blend  of  peace  and  calming  and valor  diluted  with  olive  oil  (grown  by  our  neighbours,  organic  and  extra  virgin).  I put  8  drops  along  her  spine  making  sure  2  were  on  her  hip  area  ,  she  then  licks  some of it so I guess she is getting it both orally and on the coat. She is calmer, more confident (went out in the rain), not meowing as much, and so far no urinating in the house.  
I will keep you posted as to how we are going. 
Joy  Marshall  breeder  of  Korat  cats  approached  me  in Nov  2013 regarding   homeopathic   support   for   her   cat during pregnancy and  birthing,  as  there  were  potentially some concerns.  Here is what she has to say: 
Sorry its taken this long to get back to you but kittens sure take up time.  I used the Arnica, Sepia 30,  Uritica Urens 30C, and Ferr Phos  12X along with some Raspberry Leaf and some Calcium syrup I already had. All where easy to give. Your tablets ground and mixed well and I gave Mekhi a compound mixed with milk via a dropper or syringe. She delivered  easily  and recovered  so well so I’d say all were efficacious. 
​Thanks for your help.
Bella's  Story
Bella  was   around   6   months   old   when   she   became   part   of the Rankin  family.   A  couple  of  months  prior  our  Brown Burmese cat,  Demi, passed  away  from  lymphatic  cancer  leaving  her  7 year old  companion behind  (  Damascus  ,  also  Brown  Burmese).    After Demi  passed  away Damascus  pined  for  her.    He  became  clingy, pummelling  our  clothes when  we  picked  him  up  and  cried  for hours  on  end.    We  finally  decided to get him another companion to help with his grief.  Bella  had  been  dumped  on  the  street  as  a kitten  and  a  breeder  had taken  her  in  and  was  looking  for  a home  for  her.    We  were  told  that  she had  runny  eyes  and  this may  have  been  why  she  was  dumped.    When we  met  Bella  we were  surprised  at  her  sunny  personality  and  playful ways.      It seemed   she   had   never   been   mistreated   as   she   was   so trusting.    We  gave  her  L-lysine  supplements  for  her  eyes  but they continued  to  run  and  before  long  she  was  sneezing  with green  mucus coming  out  of  her  nose.    
We  were  advised  by  our  local  vet  to  put Cortisone   drops   in   her   eyes   as   they   were   inflamed   but   after   our experiences  with Demi  and  her  cat  flu,  we  decided  to  try  homeopathic medicine.    Helen  advised  us  to  try  Euphrasia  and  Allicum  Cepa  drops for Bella. After   we   worked   out   the   correct   dosage   Bella's   eyes improved  with  the  redness  reducing  significantly  and  her  nose  was no longer  infected.    Every  few  days  we  still  need  to  clean  her  eyes  (they run)   but   we   redose   her   if   they   become   inflamed again  and   they continue  to  improve.    Helen  has  also  helped  us  with  changing  the  cats' diet  (eg  at  times  we  add  parsley  to  their food  as  this  helps  the  eyes  and adds  vitamin  C  to  assist  the  immune  system).    She  has  also  explained the  meaning  of  key ingredients  that  manufacturers  use  in  pet  food  so we  are  more  vigilent  with  the  food  we  feed  our  cats.    
We  are  grateful for all her help.

Doklao Cattery
We  have  been  breeding  and  showing  the  beautiful and  rare  Korats  cats  under  the Doklao   prefix since   1994.      

​Our   Korat   household   comprises of three   breeding queens  (Lilyput,  BB  and  Tia)  a stud male  (Yindee) a retired  spay  (Bella)  and  a vesectomised British Blue boy  Micky. We  sought Helen’s  help  in  particular  to improve  show behaviour,  the  management of reproductive problems and in maintaining a more harmonious multi   cat household.  

BB  is  outgoing and  playful but  in  a  cat  show situation  she  tends to  be very shy and timid. In  a show  situation Lilyput  would hide  and  grumble and would  refuse to  show herself   when      placed   on the   judging table where   as  Tia   would   lap   up all the accolades and  attention  but  would  quickly  get bored  and become  fidgety  and  more vocal. Helen used  Bowen, Kinesiology  and  specific  individual essences  that she  made  up for  each  of  the  girls.

​We  noticed that there  was  a  marked improvement in  their  show behaviour  and  we  had  some excellent  successes  in the  show  ring  including  a Best in   Show   for Lilyput   at   the “No   Frills Show” in   September 2008.   

We  also approached   Helen to   seek   advice on supporting  remedies  to treat Lilyput’s pyometra and BB’s aversion to mating. BB is now a confident mother  of  five  healthy kittens born  November 2008 and is  happily  sharing  the mothering  role  with Tia.

Lilyput  has  made  a  good recovery  from  the pyometra  and  we  are  hopeful that  she will also soon also be a mother again.

Bella's Cat Flu
Bella  had  over  the  weekend  developed  Cat  Flu and  was  under  the care of her veterinarian. Joan was  looking  for  some  additional  support  to  help with  Bella's mouth  ulcers,  watery  eyes  and general lethargy  and  with  her  vet's approval gave Helen a call.  Helen   recommended   colloidal   silver   and manuka   honey      with   the mouth  ulcers,  along with  merc  sol  homeopathically  and  alium  cepa  for the   eyes.   In   addition   crab   apple,   genetian   and oak,   Bach   Flower remedies were given to help with lethargy and overrall recuperation.Joan emailed the following comments “Thank  you  for  helping  our Bella,  within  days  of  using  the  remedies  we say  a hugh  improvement  and  she  has  continued  to improve.  She  is back  to  her  normal  self  and  have not  needed  to  continue  with  the  vet medication.

Meet  Mitzi  a  client  of Animal  Equilibrium  who does  not  like to  be  touched.  Mitzi  suffers  from arthritis  and  has  problems  in moving   around given   past   injury   and   age.   Bowen   and   laser therapy  would  be  ideal  for  Mitzi,  but  Mitzi  has other  ideas!  Helen uses  vibrational  modalities including  reiki,  homeopathy  and  in  this picture Light  Life  Tools,  developed  by  researcher  Slim Spurling, based   on   the   principles   of   quantum physics.   Rings,   coils   and feedback  loops  are strategically  placed  around  the  animal  to  work on the  animals  energy  fields  and  help  with  overrall healing,  injury recovery  and  pain  management. Mitzi’s  mum  says  “  I  really  was not  sure  that  this would  work  with  our  cat,  but  I  cannot  explain the difference   in   her   mobility   since   receiving the   three   treatments using  these  coils,  she  is quite  accepting  of  the  treatment  and seems  very content  afterwards,  this  has  made  a  big difference as we don’t have to give her medications as frequently.

Queenie  was    adopted  from  the  Yagoona  RSPCA   and initially  very  timid  and  spent  the  first  week  hiding wherever she could  in  the  house.  Queenie  would  very rarely  venture  out,  only with  much  coaxing  and  with  the temptation  of  food.  A  tailored flower  essence  remedy  with 6  individual  essences  was  prepared and  given  daily  in  her food and water.
Helen visited Queenie and Michelle. 
Michelle says: 
“She  is  much  more  outgoing,  freely  comes  out  from  her hiding spaces  and  interacts  with  Sally.  She  is  a  much more   confident and   content   kitten.   The   difference   in Queenie  is  amazing  and we  are  really  pleased  she  has adjusted to her new home”.

​Helen  has  been  advising  me  on  how  to  transition  the  kittens from a processed diet to a raw natural diet. Here  is  one  of  the kittens  she  is  enjoying  her  chicken  neck!   Mary  says  “the kittens just  love  the  new  diet  and  they  look  much healthier,   eyes   are bright   and   their   fur   and   skin   in   great condition.    Thanks  for the  advice  and  support  along  the  way  , you are amazing”Taurine, an   essential   amino   acid   found   in   meat   protein   is essential for  cats  as  they  cannot  synthesise  it  themselves.  The best source of  taurine  is  fresh  raw  meat.  Deficiencies  of  taurine can   result in   blindness   and   heart   failure.   Cats   require   200-300gms  of taurine  a  day  which  is  easily  supplied  by  a  diet  that is more than half raw meat.
