Lolahemp's CBD oil for cats has offered daily support for cats around the country. Your best friend shouldn't struggle in silence, and our product is a safe and natural option to help them start feeling their best again.

This guide will give you some essential information on Cat CBD in its various forms and what it might be able to do for your beloved feline friend.

CBD oil for cats is growing as a popular option for cat owners seeking natural solutions to their pets' aches, anxieties, and discomforts. Cats are notorious for masking their pain and discomfort, whether it's emotional or physical. This makes it difficult to identify and address.

So, let's take a look at what cat CBD might be able to do to help.

What is Cat CBD, Exactly?

 

Cat CBD oil products are made from hemp and formulated specifically for felines.

There are plenty of CBD products for dogs and pets in general, but not as many are made just for cats. Dogs and cats have different enzymes and bodily functions that cause them to process things at different rates. This makes it important to follow dosage guidelines and use only products that have been shown to be safe for cats.

CBD products for cats are formulated with CBD oil extract and mixed with other feline-safe ingredients to improve the therapeutic effects.

CBD Oil & The Endocannabinoid System

 

Hemp naturally produces organic compounds called "cannabinoids." These compounds are structured in a way that interacts well with the endocannabinoid system (ECS). All mammals have endocannabinoid systems to help maintain homeostasis and equilibrium in the body.

More specifically, the ECS is a network of receptors, lipids, and endocannabinoids that communicate different information about what's going on in the body. The ECS supports essential bodily functions such as sleep, pain perception, anxiety, emotional modulation, inflammation, and more.

"Endocannabinoids" are cannabinoids that form naturally within the body. The body produces and uses these as needed. "Cannabinoids" are similarly-structured compounds found outside of the body. Because they have a similar structure, the cannabinoids found in hemp are able to interact with the ECS and provide support.

CBD Oil for Cats is Less Concentrated

 

Lower concentrations of CBD make these products safer for the small bodies of our feline friends. Think about it - most dogs are three or four times larger than your cat.

So, a normal dose for an average-sized dog might be three times more CBD oil than is recommended for your cat.

If your cat consumes too much CBD, they might experience the following:

  • Digestive upset

  • Lethargy

  • Temporary lack of coordination

There is no evidence or scientific research that suggests that cats can fatally overdose on CBD. Extremely high dosages could cause more severe symptoms, particularly in cats with preexisting health challenges, however.

This is why it's important to discuss new supplement options with your veterinarian.

What Can CBD Products Do to Help Cats?

 

Your cat might benefit from CBD in a number of ways.


Support for Bodily Discomfort

 

CBD can support cats experiencing different levels of discomfort for a range of reasons. Cats are famously good at hiding their pain, so supporting your feline companion with a daily regimen of hemp oil could be a good idea to get ahead of issues before they develop.

Support for Emotional Distress

 

Cats are emotional creatures, even if they appear to have nerves of steel. It really depends on the cat, you already know.


That said, cats are prone to get worried at loud noises, separation from their owners, or they might even just have a heightened sense of worry in general.

CBD can support cats with these struggles. Oftentimes, cats will experience some relief within the first few hours of use. In other cases, it can take days or weeks of use for the CBD to build up enough to have a significant effect.

Overall Well-Being

 

The endocannabinoid system functions across the body, so CBD potential impact can be very broad. One of the best ways to use CBD oil for cats is as a daily wellness booster.

Even if your cat isn't struggling with issues now, old age can come along and disrupt your pet's overall health and well-being. Getting ahead of issues by supporting your cats emotional, physical, and immune system health with CBD oil can make a big difference in the long-run.

Topical Support for Immune & Skin Health

 

If your cat has a difficult skin spot that's causing them issues, topical CBD could be a viable solution.

Topical CBD works via the endocannabinoid system in your cat's skin. Skin has three layers, and all of them have been shown to have endocannabinoid receptors.

This allows topical CBD to impact a local area of skin; wherever you apply the balm, that's where it will be effective. It won't provide body-wide impacts.

At the same time, ingestible CBD oil might not do much for cats with topical issues. So, if you're looking to help your pet resolve topical areas, a CBD balm is the way to go.

What is Full-Spectrum CBD Oil?

 

Full-spectrum CBD oil is formulated with hemp extract containing the full range of cannabinoids and therapeutic terpenes found in the hemp plant.

The additional compounds in hemp can support the primary active ingredient, CBD, in its therapeutic impact. In this way, they have a synergistic effect on your cat's health.

That's why full-spectrum CBD oil for cats should be the preferred option. Further, these extracts are less processed than the oils with isolated CBD.

To fully extract CBD from its natural counterparts, products have to undergo a series of extractions and processes that could reduce the therapeutic value. These processes also increase the risk of mistakes, alterations, and additions to the product that might not be the best for your cat.

Will Lolahemp's CBD Oil Help Your Cat's Anxiety?

 

Your cat's anxiety is a multi-faceted issue, and it's important to understand the source before you attempt to treat it. CBD can provide support for cats dealing with issues like anxiety, but a holistic approach to their emotional wellness needs to be in place.

If your cat is stressed by other animals in the home, for example, you won't likely see any benefits without making alterations to the environment. Situational anxiety like this usually occurs for understandable reasons.

That said, many of our customers have reported excellent results in their anxious cats. Try this oil to encourage a calmer, more relaxed cat.

So, can CBD calm cats? Yes, it can. But it doesn't always, especially if your cat's anxiety comes from underlying issues in the home or their past.

Is Administering CBD for Cats Difficult?

 

Dropping oil directly into your cat's mouth can be a challenge if they're not fans of people putting fingers near their mouth. Once you get into a routine, though, your cat will come to enjoy the process (especially if you reward them with treats afterward).

Dropping directly into the mouth or cheek is the most effective method of using CBD oil for cats, as this area has the highest concentration of blood vessels to absorb the CBD.

You can also drop oil onto their treats. Dropping onto treats is a good, although a slightly smaller concentration will be absorbed. Once you get into a routine with your cat, you can keep an eye on the effects and adjust the dosage as needed.

Cat CBD Oil Safe Usage

 

The safest way to use CBD oil for cats is to discuss the use of this product at vet visits, start with small dosages and work your way up, and always monitor your cat to see how they're responding.

The first time you use Lolahemp CBD oil for your cat, closely monitor your cat's behavior to see if they tolerate the product well.

Overall, is CBD safe for cats?

One study on the safety of CBD in cats showed that all cats in the test group safely tolerated escalating dosages, with any adverse reactions being considered "mild" and not "medically significant."

Anecdotal evidence from our customers has shown that this product is tolerated very well by all of our feline customers. Again, the best way to start is by using a low dosage and gradually increasing doses to see what agrees best with your cat's body.

When using a high quality CBD product like Lolahemp, you can comfortably explore this option for your pet without fear of unknown ingredients or shady business practices. We make every step of the process abundantly clear, offer lab tests with certificates of analysis, and take good care of our customers with an in-house customer service team.

Does Lolahemp Recommend Consulting Your Vet?

 

Yes! You should talk with your veterinarian about whether or not CBD is a viable option for the issues that your pet is facing.

Because CBD is not FDA-approved to treat ailments in animals, your vet may not be allowed to recommend or prescribe CBD oil for cats. Still, they are able to discuss it as an option with you and let you know if there are any potential risks or adverse effects you might not have considered.

While our product has been safely tolerated and effective for our customers, there are different issues that could pose risks to your cat.

For example, cats on medications may not tolerate CBD well. If your cat is taking other medications, be sure to discuss these with your veterinarian to see if there could be an interaction of some kind.

Always air on the side of caution and talk with your professional!
