On our drive home from pawfest 2024, i have some time to reflect...
I cannot begin to tell you how much I LOVE this 'family' I joined, in late January 2024. In a million years, I would have never ever imagined that things would be the way it is!
Let me tell you my 'why'!
The last few months of 2023, being a Maine C**n Breeder has been challenging, tough, has had its rewards, but it also had major earthquakes too! Everyone always wants to talk about their 'happy' experiences. I will too, but first I need to tell you how I got "here".
It started with 2 of my kittens, in their furrever homes getting sick. The ONLY thing that connects these kittens, is my cattery, and unfortunately the major parent company of brand commercial foods they were feeding our beloved family members. Let me make this crystal clear!!! I am NOT bashing this parent company, but letting you know MY experiences with it in the past 10 months.
The first family, I'll call them family A (for privacy reasons). They have 2 of my kittens. Adopted within days of each other. Doing amazing, until one day, kitten 2, wasn't. The family reached out, and together, I started working with them and their veterinary team to figure out why, and how to get past it. Kitten 1, has never had ANY issues! He's been on the same exact foods, etc. Kitten 1, started being lethargic, he wouldn't play, his coat was greasy and dull looking, he was starting to not eat. All of these symptoms greatly concerned me, as he was only 6 months old. They did everything that the vet and I asked. They did expensive testing and even had a feeding tube inserted as a last ditch effort to try and help him. No matter what we did, it just wasn't enough. Kitten A died about 2 weeks later. They did a necropsy, and it came back with "severe vitamin deficiencies" as the cause of his death! He was 8 months old. I immediately replaced the kitten for free, even though in my contract it said unless it was a genetic issue, I wasn't responsible. I was just as shattered as they were! I couldn't not do something. I felt it wasn't fair!
Fast forward to 80 days later roughly, and another kitten family reached out to me with THE EXACT SAME ISSUES! at this point, I'm highly concerned... is it a genetic issue? The food? Environment, what!!?? Kitten B, went down just as fast as kitten A. I immediately asked for a vitamin bloodwork report. Sure enough, "severe vitamin deficiency" was again listed. B, came back to my house for a couple of days, to see if I could somehow help reverse this. Nope, after 3 days, he wasn't improving, and was very visibly upset not being with 'his human'. I sent him home. 2 weeks later, after all the heroic efforts to reverse this, we lost the battle. Both of these kittens were on Royal Canin Maine C**n and Hills Science diet veterinary formula. Both are owned and manufactured by Purina. I have personally lost 2 other kittens during all this.
I was feeding the same products! I vowed, there would be no more preventable deaths on my watch if I could help it! I went online, and saw someone talking about pawTree. I was intrigued but very shy, as I can't buy it on amazon, or in a big box store. The only way to get this food and supplements, is through an independent distributor. Great, I'm going to deal with some off the wall, b.s. company, who over prices their products! Was I wrong!!??
Yes.
I was very, very wrong.
I decided to 'try' this stuff and see exactly for myself what was what. We've all heard of the multi level marketing scams, etc. Yes, there's a higharchy, but in our FAMILY, we are ALL equal! No matter if your just starting out, like me or if you've been with the company since conception 10 years ago! We all are here to for our beloved fur babies... our cats n dogs! No matter what life stage they are in, you will be feeding them the absolute best! I was VERY skeptical on the hype. I'm not easily convinced. I am a 'show me, prove it, put your $ where your mouth is' type of person. I WAS a loyal Purina products feeder. No one could tell me different! 28.5 years long!
Look, I'm not here to blow smoke anywhere! I'm just telling you MY story, and WHY, I continue with this amazing family, not only for me; but for the very most important part, my fur kids! They deserve the absolute best food you can do.
I have a question for you, would you eat fast food everyday, knowing there's better stuff out there; but not wanting to spend more than what you already are? Or would you rather eat good healthy food, that your body processes better, for the same or less price? I'd rather eat better, cheaper! So would you fur kids!!! They can't speak human, nor can we speak bark or meow. However, they ARE telling us things!
Is their coat feeling kinda rough, no matter how much you. Brush? How about their ears? Are you seeing waxy stuff, or chronic infections, or even mites? How about the 'funky' smell, no matter how many baths, and other products you try? What about their 'waste (poo)', is it enough for you to run on amazon, looking for a gas mask? (True story here! I WAS looking to purchase one, because my cats smelled HORRIBLE in their boxes). What would you say, if I told you I work for a company who I personally use the products, FULLY support, and in my breeding program have seen 180 degree turnaround in appearance and overall health. Would you try it? How about if we offered a 90 day money back guarantee? Would you try it then? You have ZERO, YES ZERO RISK!! Why not?
I recently took back a cat, who I will call G. G was in a very loving home. Pet owners who greatly cared for him, but he was doing things, that just aren't acceptable. G was not using his litterbox, had started looking very greasy coat, always some kind of eye infection or upper respiratory issues. G came back to me about July 1, 2024. He weighed just under 7.5 lbs! Now at 15 months old, he SHOULD be almost double this size! When his family contacted me, I asked what food was he eating, treats, medications, the whole 9 yards. Ok, the answer was clear as day. It's the food, and stress related. Ok, I can fix this. So, he came back to me. I have had G in my care for 3.5 weeks. I will include photos at the bottom. I took G into my vet 8 days later, for a weight check. He was at 8.62 lbs!!! This is the MOST he's ever weighed!! What did I do differently? I switched him from Kirkland brand cat food, to pawTree food n gastroplus. Literally. That's all I've done. He's continuing to gain weight, his coat looks and feels AMAZING (like silk), no need for a gas mask! The eyes and upper respiratory issue are gone. I'm not kidding! I would have told anyone, yeah, right! Don't believe me, try it for yourself! Let your eyes, ears and your FUR KID (HEALTH, ETC), tell you! You have a 90 day money back guarantee! The supplements alone are worth triple than what you will pay! I know! Being a breeder, I was spending BIG BIG money at the vet every month! We are talking anywhere from $2000.00 to $6500.00, be a of illness, or diarrhea issues, excessive shedding, blowing their coats, etc. I could go on, n on, but I won't.
Since I started pawTree, I no longer am at the vet 3 to 4x a week, spending hundreds each time. I now go for routine well checks. I go only as I have to now. Very rarely do I go to the vet for poo, or illness. Why? Because if you feed better, ours and their bodies use the good food and supplements and thus feel better, live longer, happier lives!
Now that I'd seen the difference, and to test my theory, I DID go back to a commercial food for 4 days. I actually had run out, and didn't realize I was that close to running out. So, we ran to petco and grabbed the old food. In 4 very hellish days, we went from eating little to like bottomless pits, we had full blown diarrhea, and start of illnesses again! I told my husband, "never ever again, I don't care what I have to temporarily sacrifice for our family to ensure we have the right food for the kids; this will NEVER happen again." Since that day, we have never had a day without! I don't regret that! Even if you love the food your on, try our supplements! They are amazing!
That is my why. Why do I do it? For my kid's health. They can't advocate for themselves, but if they could, they would ask you to try it for them. You have NOTHING to lose!! If your pet doesn't love it, call customer service. You can replace the item with something else, or you can get your money back. There's no strings. No hoops. Just unconditional love and support from all of us in the pawTree family. What do you have to lose? Nothing. To gain? Everything. More time with them, healthier, biggest litter sizes, healthier babies, etc. Breeder friends, I'm talking to you here too!
Do you want free pet food for 12 months, zero start up costs? No web fees for 12 months? How about earning a MINIMUM of 15% back on EVERYTHING you buy/sell? It might not seem like a lot, but trust me, it adds up fast! I spend 1/4th of what I was on pet food n supplements. That's not including the decreased litter costs, or the reduced vet bills! This stuff is a game changer! Try it, make me eat my words!! You or your pet won't be sorry!
Here's G, his surrender day (3) photos, and the last 5 are of him today! Look at the difference!!!
