Head Butt Hotel Nutritional & Care Protocols

Here at the Head Butt Hotel, we take great pride, in the work we do, to restore the health of the cats who join our organization here, not to mention the time and financial investment. Nothing could make us happier, than to find the perfect home, where each one can live out their natural lives, safe, healthy, and loved.
Two of the most invaluable resources we recommend to help educate pet-owners, is the movie Pet-Fooled, and Susan Thixton’s blog, the Truth About Pet Food.
We utilize a Food as Medicine concept here and would like to summarize our multi-faceted nutritional protocol being most people and fewer vets, seem to be aware that cats are OBLIGATE CARNIVORES.
We offer freeze dried and no byproducts, human grade pate wet food options, but offer fish very sparingly, given the negative impact mercury has on feline renal health. We are incorporating recommendations by Dr. Judy Morgan’s Naturally Healthy Pets, and Pam Roussell at Purrrfectly Holistic including these brands:
Weruva, Tiki Cat, All Provide, Viva Raw, Steve’s, Small Batch, and Raised Right. The optimal choice for both dogs and cats would be an entirely raw based or gently cooked protocol, all human grade meats vs feed grade ingredients which have taken over the commercial pet food industry.

My Pet Carnivore, and Hare Today are two other supplier options. Organic bone broth, farm fresh eggs, and roast chicken are also a huge hit here along with pork which Publix grinds for us monthly.
The only kibble we allow our felines to be fed, is Young Again, affordably priced including free Fed Ex shipping directly to your home. This brand unlike all others (including high carb prescription Royal Canin and Science Diet Hills commonly sold by veterinarians), is not only grain free but has only 0 to 6% digestible carbs. It does not contain any corn, wheat, soy, gluten, nor other carbohydrate starch fillers, plants or vegetables, barley, potatoes, oats, rice, peas, nor tapioca, etc., which will negatively impact and affect the health of felines. At the Head Butt Hotel, we feed the Mature formulation as our base for the furry friends who have already reached their maximum adult growth, while the Cat/Kitten Original is for Mamas and kittens. The Mature Zero formula is even lower in phosphorus and this brand was added to Tanya’s Comprehensive Guide to Feline Chronic Kidney Disease two years ago after our introduction. Both kidney disease and diabetes are two very avoidable health issues, caused by the 25 to 55% carbs included in all other brands of dry kibble cat food. Most cats who join us, arrive with an overall history of poor nutrition; many with health issues, caused by the inflammatory genetically modified ingredients treated with pesticides, used in the pet food they were previously being fed. The average 10 lbs. cat will consume approximately 2 ½ lbs. of Young Again per month so one 8 lb. bag will in fact last well over two months, an affordable option for most pet owners. Please feel free to take advantage of our coupon code #189028 or by placing your order thru our website, as we greatly appreciate the small referral donation Young Again extends to our non-profit.
Our water fountains are filled daily with cold filtered Zero water, and we use affordable and natural Pelletized Horse Bedding Pine (Tractor Supply) to avoid any chemicals used in the more expensive brands of scented and light litters. Aside from the water fountains, at the advice of our homeopath, we’ve eliminated all metal water bowls and added Glass Pyrex bowls instead.
We maintain a flea free environment, and have eliminated the use of chemical laden pesticide insecticide products (Cheristin, Capstar, Profender, Advantage Multi, Flea Assassin, and Puppybutts.net generic Tapex Plus products) to much safer alternative chemical free, healthier options, available thru these wonderful resources.

We urge everyone to follow Dr. Judy Morgan’s Healthy Natural Pets on Facebook and Instagram and subscribe to her email distribution. She’s a wealth of information and instrumental educational resource for pet owners to learn about safe alternatives to every pharmaceutical product on the market, while identifying their detrimental effects. There are many all natural toxic free alternatives, truly safe and effective without synthetic additives, available on her website, with home remedies and pet food recipes that pet owners can prepare themselves.
After your new family member arrives, we would greatly appreciate everyone sharing a review for our organization, in whatever capacity we may have been able to help, on our Great Non-Profits portal.
