We spend a lot of time explaining the use of Enterozoo® to dog owners but what about cats? It is true that in general dogs are more curious and less careful than cats are, but it is also true that cats are legendary counter surfers and often have food sensitivities which can manifest by vomiting, diarrhoea, flatulence, loss of appetite, itchy skin, hair loss or reddened skin.
Some of the most known allergens are milk, chicken, beef and fish and it is hard to say if it is a food itself which causes the sensitivity/allergy or the contaminants involved in farming, production, and processing, such as pesticides or antibiotics.
Sometimes even a tiny amount of allergen can trigger a whole lot of symptoms and those are impossible to predict. Moreover, if symptoms are straightforward, such as diarrhoea or vomiting, it is normally easier to figure out and address.
But if food sensitivities are masking behind skin itchiness or ear infections, they can take a long time to diagnose and very often your cat will go through different treatments, including antibiotics and other heavy medications, which can cause damage to intestinal lining and trigger acute Leaky Gut syndrome.
Your veterinarian will advise on tests and feeding choices if you suspect that your cat is allergic or sensitive and regular use of Enterozoo® can ease the journey.
Enterozoo® aka Toxin Removal Gel is called the “smart sponge” for a reason – it is potent enough to adsorb allergens, toxins and pathogens from animal’s gastrointestinal tract and remove them from the body.
Enterozoo® helps heal the intestinal lining which in turn can improve digestion, balance the intestinal flora, build up immunity, clear up skin conditions and add to overall wellbeing.

How “green” is our grass and how it affects our pets?
If you are a paw parent, chances are your fur baby is regularly walking on grass, be it in your garden, lawn in the park or an estate you are living in. In some cases, though, exposing your pets to lawns might be dangerous, especially if it is regular.
Speaking of nature, perfection always has a price - picture perfect lawns require lots of maintenance and normally hide the lengthy list of chemicals which are hard to pronounce.
When people buy weed killers or insecticides, they assume that those “brilliant” formulations kill only weeds or unwanted insects, the reality is – the toxicity level of those formulas is dangerous to everyone and especially our pets and wildlife.
Countless pet owners choose to go back to basics banning anything toxic from their homes and gardens, but public places and estates (golf courses are the worst!) are often a risky ground.
It might be a good idea to check what chemicals are used on the lawn where you walk your furry kids, but here are the list of symptoms and signs to look for if you think that your pets might have been exposed to pesticides/insecticides:
• Vomiting
• Rapid breathing
• Distress
• Diarrhoea
• Drooling
• Confusion
• Excessive drinking
• Pawing at the face or eyes
• Dilation of pupils
• Lethargy
• Tremors
• Skin irritations
• Skin rashes
• Burns
• Seizures
• Arrhythmia
• Collapse
• Coma
• Death
Depending on the pesticide and severity of the symptoms, your veterinarian will decide on the treatment.
Enterozoo® administration after exposure will help to absorb the toxic substance and prevent it from entering the system, reducing the risk of potential consequences.
Thanks to smart molecular engineering, Enterozoo® acts like a clever sponge adsorbing poisonous substances from inside of gastrointestinal tract, with no chances of re-absorption. It means when pathogens or toxins are absorbed by the gel, they b
Many paw parents who’ve decided to adopt their pups or kittens from shelter are unpleasantly surprised that their new fur baby is suffering from diarrhoea and/or vomiting which makes their first days or even months in a new home a bit unsettling, to say the least.
Gastrointestinal issues are very common for rescues, even if the conditions of the shelter may be perfect otherwise and we know how hard shelters work to keep things clean.
New animals from adverse environments are being introduced to the pack every day (if not every hour) making the exposure to pathogens extreme. And quantity of animals being in such close proximity to each other makes viral or bacterial infections spread very quickly.
The other thing we tend to underestimate is enormous stress which these animals are experiencing. Many of them have been subjected to neglect, harm and abuse for prolonged periods of time which can affect gut flora in a most negative way possible.
Gut-brain connection works both ways and if animal is in danger, alerted brain sends the signal to the gut and whole microbiome changes accordingly.
When they get used to the shelter, they get adopted (the lucky ones…) and once again, they have to get used to their new surroundings, people, food, etc.
But, here are the good news: with the right approach and care they can heal and thrive!
So, if your new puppy or kitten can’t seem to get their tummy right after they been introduced to your home, the following can help:
• Check-up with your vet for any hidden infections or other underlying issues
• Regular administration of Enterozoo® to alleviate diarrhoea and/or vomiting and remove viral and bacterial pathogens. When “bad guys” are removed from the gut, the intestinal lining is healing faster and this, in turn, eliminates stress and anxiety
• Food (ideally as natural as possible)
• Probiotics
And, of course, above all – lots and lots of love and patience as healing broken souls and sore tum
In case our previous posts skipped your attention, we are comparing Enterozoo® to other remedies used for gastrointestinal disorders in animals and answering the questions we are getting from #pawparents the most often.
Today’s topic: is Enterozoo® antibiotic? Enterozoo® is not an antibiotic and it is 100% drug-free.
Antibiotics are genius invention and are irreplaceable in case of infectious disease, but more often than not they are over-prescribed worldwide and in some cases we are killing the fly with a fighter plane, literally.
Antibiotics are potent medications which work by drastically reducing or killing bacteria be it good or bad. In case with serious infections the benefits of antibiotics outweigh the risks of prescribing them.
Normally, after an antibiotic treatment there is a serious need for a good probiotic to restore the gut microbiome, otherwise the immune system (80% of which resides in the gut) left “bare” and helpless in case of diseases and digestive system is compromised because the “factory workers” (bacteria which break down food) are not there. Moreover, gut and the whole body are left to deal with “die-off” – bacterial toxins, the waste which is left in the gut after the “fighter plane” – antibiotic treatment.
Enterozoo® works in a completely different way by adsorbing and evacuating toxins and pathogens from the gut detoxing the system and increasing immune response, it is drug- and additives-free, non-toxic and hypoallergenic.
So, we can’t really compare the two as they belong to different classes – antibiotics vs enterosorbents, fighter plane vs vacuum cleaner, why kill if you can clean?):
*This post is not a call to stop antibiotic treatments but rather to evaluate the issue and use the best approach to benefit the animal. Please consult your veterinarian if symptoms persist or worsen.

All of us deworm our pets from time to time and, unless we are choosing a natural remedy, there are potential side effects to any medications we use.
And, as any medication can potentially produce a side effect due to different reasons, those side effects can be quite severe if left untreated, especially for young pets, such as puppies and kittens.
Deworming possible side effects:
• Diarrhoea
Naturally, body needs to flush out dead worms which pile up in the intestine after medication is administered. While this is necessary, diarrhoea can also last much longer than the excretion of actual parasites, so can lead to dangerous dehydration and seizures.
• Vomiting
Due to some chemicals used in deworming medications, they might cause nausea due to their interaction with stomach acid. Also, worms release toxins when they die, so vomiting helps animal to get rid of those toxins.
• Excessive salivating
Again, deworming tablets can cause puppies/dogs to salivate extensively as gastrointestinal tract reacts to chemicals present in the medication.
• Lack of appetite
Upset stomach can cause your dog/puppy to lose appetite, because die-off parasites can cause inflammation of the intestinal lining, which can cause (you might guessed it!), nausea, diarrhoea, dizziness and lethargy.
Enterozoo® can help to lessen or eliminate the side effects by adsorbing and removing the toxins from animal’s GI tract, reducing the risk of potentially dangerous side effects.
Enterozoo® helps heal the intestinal lining bringing your pet back to life.

Dog poisoning: what you need to know
Despite most people being well-prepared before they have pets, poisoning still occurs, especially in dogs, as they are very curious by nature and prone to “counter surfing”.
So, here is a list of things which can make your dog feel unwell at best or be totally detrimental to your animal’s health and life.
Human food
First and foremost, animals’ metabolism and microbiome differ from humans. Some human foods, such as chocolate or grapes for example, is perfectly safe for people but dangerous, and sometimes fatal, for dogs.
Depending on the quantity your dog consumed, their general health and state of their digestive system, some dogs are luckier than the others and can escape the ordeal unharmed, but many aren’t that lucky, so keep your counters clean and empty if you got furry child or children – you can never be too safe!
Medications
OTC meds like Panado, Nurofen, as well as some herbal and nutraceutical supplements, can be poisonous to dogs. Prescription medications that are beneficial to humans can also be highly poisonous when ingested by dogs.
Veterinary Products
Medications like painkillers, de-wormers, and flea/tick treatments can be poisonous to dogs if consumed or used incorrectly.
Household Products
Household cleaning products are a leading cause of pet poisoning, resulting in stomach and respiratory tract problems. Chemicals in antifreeze, paint thinner, and chemicals for pools also can act as dog poison.
Insecticides and rat poison
Rat poison and insecticides can be as dangerous for your dog as the creatures they are intended for. They are deadly and kill a lot of wildlife.
Garden plants
Some of the more toxic plants to dogs include lilies, oleanders, elephant ears, and sago palms.
Lawn & Garden Products
Pesticides used as weedkillers are some of the most dangerous chemicals we can ever come across and they are poisonous for pets and humans alike.

Just like in humans, 70-80% of your dog’s immune system resides in the gut and that is why healthy microbiome is crucial for their well-being and longevity.
As much as we would love to leave in the perfect world with no problems, it rarely happens, so just like in humans, pet’s microbiome can be affected by numerous factors:
• Sudden change in diet or poor quality food
• Vaccinations, surgeries, deworming ("die-off" effect) and other treatments
• Contaminated or unfiltered tap water (heavy metals, chlorine, etc)
• Exposure to fertilizers, pesticides or insecticides (hello, golf courses and manicured lawns!)
• Eating foreign objects
• Stress (boarding, travel, moving house etc)
• GI diseases
• Antibiotics
So, factors can be many and some of them would be impossible to avoid, so it is very important to take extra care of your pet’s microbiome, as well as your own, if you are aware of any of the above.
While it is paramount to introduce good gut bacteria in the form of probiotics, sometimes it can create a bit of a mess when administered on top of other medications.
Detox could be an answer to that and definitely a first step to a healthy gut.
Enterozoo is a gentle and effective detoxication gel which quickly and effectively adsorbs toxins and pathogens from the GI tract, healing the intestinal lining in the process.
Because Enterozoo is eliminating pathogens, it is promoting the growth of beneficial bacteria, adding to healthy microbiome and fully functioning immune system in your pet.
Enterozoo is based on organic mineral, non-toxic, has no additives and very easy to administer, not to mention that it is a first thing your pet should be having after they stole something sweet or chocolat-y from the Christmas table, ja, we know):

When our pets are affected by diarrhoea, we don’t always know what is better to treat them with, especially if they are sensitive/allergic, too little or aging.
Enterozoo® is a treatment suitable for all animals🐕🐶🐱🐭🐹🐰🐷🐥, all ages and pre-existing conditions.
Enterozoo® is a detoxifying gel for treatment of diarrhoea, poisoning, allergies, burns or skin conditions.
The main differences between other diarrhoea treatments and Enterozoo®️ are:
🌀Numerous trials showed that molecule size of adsorbent is very important - the bigger are the components, the less effective adsorbent is.
🌀Bigger particles (crushed pieces of pills or powder, for example) affect the safety of administration and provide uneven intestinal coverage, not to mention difficulty of administration to smaller pets which offers less adsorbing potential and creating damage to intestinal lining by abrasive particles.
🌀Treatments based on clay can be toxic☢️ to newborns or smaller pets as some types of clay naturally contain high levels of lead which can result in nausea and vomiting if administered in inadequate doses☠️
Enterozoo®️ is a gel with a porous structure based on organic mineral. Translucent gel starts acting immediately from the moment of administration, evenly distributing over the intestinal lining and adsorbing the bacterial and viral pathogens the way a sponge does adsorb the impurities.
All toxic substances are getting adsorbed immediately and once binded, exclude the possibility of being re-adsorbed into the gut which can happen with clay remedies.
Enterozoo®️ creates a thin film on intestinal lining which allows it to heal, so it offers gut protection for animals suffering from ulcers.
Enterozoo®️ is 100% additives-free, meaning no colourants, clay, flavourings, drugs, starch or preservatives are added to the formula, so it is tasteless, odourless, hypoallergenic and safe for newborns or pregnant/nursing animals.
Yeeeees, it's my sister Gaby, you are absolutely right!😹
Did I ever mention that my sis is a very adventurous eater?🤔 Well, she is😾The only problem is that her tummy isn't😹
I am thanking my lucky stars for our garden, otherwise her not-so-adventurous tummy would force all of us to wear masks🙀😷
Amazingly, with the help of Enterozoo, Gaby is back to normal in 5, literally! I am sooooo happy! Mom said to Gaby that she needs to stick to chicken-only menu for a while, let's see, hehe😹
