Re: OT - Flower Essences
Belinda, We were referring to an Australian Bush Flower Essence called "Emergency". I got mine from Earth Spirits, http://www.earthspirits-herbals.com/ a distributor for them in, I think it's in MA. I just sent my latest little foster dog off with my husband for a plane ride to NJ to her new forever home :( . I tried not to get upset, I thought I hid it pretty well, but another little dog in our household, Angel, was so upset, she was shaking. I used the EE on her ears transdermally, and she calmed right down. Now, I can't say it's the EE, or my reassurance, but she did settle down right after I put it on her ears. I'll go take some myself and let you know if it helps me! Nina Belinda wrote: What is EE, I just ordered the RR creme and am curious about this EE?
Re: OT - Flower Essences
Tellington TTouch massage has a movement done on the ears known to calm animals. Perhaps it was less the EE and more of the touch you used to apply it. :) Phaewryn PLEASE Adopt a cat from Little Cheetah Cat Rescue!!!http://ucat.us/adopt.html DONATE: We could really use a power saw (for construction), a digital camera (for pictures) and HOMES for CATS!

Re: OT - Flower Essences
Michelle, I haven't actually had much use for the EE yet. I've practically gone through my bottle of "Relationship" adding it to all the water dishes. The way in which homeopathics work, (so subtly), I never know if it's just the passage of time, or if they really do help, you know? I have heard that some cats that don't respond to the RR, do with the EE. I feel like it's worth keeping it in the house, just in case. What's going on? Who needs EE? You?

Nina Yes she does do recommandations. She is the one who recomended me to Emergency over Rescue. I myself found better results with Emergency than Rescue. I found that the Em does alittle more for my cats than the rescue but that's my opinion. She is not a vet but she does give flower essence advise. And most have worked for me. I find Sandi helpful and am very happy with her products and service. I have been happy with her service and products for about 2yrs so I order from her online all the time.

You really don't want to inhale much of it, but I've used it before on carpets, etc. to kill fleas.

Re: Subject: OT - Flower Essences (diatomaceous earth for flea control)
Thanks Jen, I had heard about not inhaling it... I think that caution was why I didn't try it for my ferals before. Maybe I'll post to the feral group and see if anyone's used it and what their experience has been.

Re: Subject: OT - Flower Essences (diatomaceous earth for flea control)
I think that precaution only applies to when you are actually applying the stuff! It's dusty, but quickly settles...heck, I've even doused a few cats with it with no ill effect...as long as you get the agricultural grade (not swimming pool grade) DE, it's okay for the cats to ingest it!

Re: Subject: OT - Flower Essences (diatomaceous earth forflea control)
I've heard that using it for intestinal worms is just BS. I couldn't say for sure but the explanation I've seen on how it supposedly works would make me think it is BS. The claim is that the sharp edges of the earth pierce the exoskeleton of the worm (worms don't have exoskeletons) and then the worms die of dehydration (while swimming in a wet environment). If the earth is sharp enough to cut the worms, why wouldn't it cut the intestines?

Re: Subject: OT - Flower Essences (diatomaceous earth forflea control)
Who can say? :) There hasn't been much scientific research in the area of internal parasite control...my guess is that it may work (if it does in fact work) by piercing the waxy protective surface of the parasite much as it does to external parasites (the microscopic shards of DE wouldn't seem large enough, in my opinion, to actually pierce any kind of exo-skeleton)...but if that waxy surface is compromised, my guess is that it would leave the worm/parasite susceptible to a pretty hostile environment (digestive enzymes/bacteria?)...just my guess! I would assume, however, that the biggest benefit to cattle/grazers would be the added mineral content of DE... But if you tame me, then we shall need each other.
