CBD For Pets

CBD is generally considered safe for dogs and cats when administered in appropriate amounts. However, it's essential to choose high-quality CBD products specifically formulated for pets. Additionally, consult with your veterinarian before starting CBD to ensure it is safe for your individual pet, especially if they have any underlying health conditions or are taking other medications.

*Out of our Fetch lineup, only the Fetch CBD Oil for Pets and Soft Chews can be administered to cats. This is because the Fetch CBD Dog Bites contain molasses which is unsafe for cats to consume.  

CBD has shown potential in supporting various aspects of pet wellness. It may help to relieve discomfort and tension, stress, and overall well-being. However, research is still ongoing, and while many pet owners report positive outcomes, individual results may vary.

CBD can be administered to dogs and cats in various forms, including CBD oil/tinctures, bites or soft chews. The most common and effective method is to administer CBD oil during or after mealtime. Administration instructions and methods may vary depending on the specific product, so follow the manufacturer's guidelines or consult your veterinarian for precise instructions.

Some potential side effects of CBD for dogs and cats may include:

• Drowsiness
• Dry mouth
• Lowered blood sugar
• Diarrhea or gastrointestinal upset

While these side effects are uncommon, it's important to monitor your pet closely after administering CBD and consult with your veterinarian if any adverse reactions occur.

CBD amounts for dogs and cats depends on various factors, including their weight, health condition, and the specific CBD product being used. It's crucial to follow the weight guidelines provided by the manufacturer or consult with a veterinarian for personalized recommendations based on your pet's individual needs.

CBD derived from hemp contains minimal to no THC, the psychoactive compound found in cannabis. Consequently, properly sourced CBD products intended for pets should not cause psychoactive effects or make your dog or cat "high." It's important to choose CBD products specifically formulated for pets and ensure they contain negligible THC levels.

CBD has shown promise in managing stress in dogs and cats. It interacts with the endocannabinoid system, which plays a role in regulating mood and stress response. However, individual responses to CBD may vary so it's crucial to work with your veterinarian to determine the appropriate amount and to explore other environmental interventions as needed.

The legal status of CBD for pets can vary by jurisdiction. In many countries and states, CBD derived from hemp with less than 0.3% THC is legal. However, regulations can change, so it's important to research and ensure compliance with local laws before purchasing or using CBD products for your pets.

It's generally not recommended to interchange CBD products formulated for dogs and cats. While CBD is generally safe for both species, dogs and cats have different physiological and metabolic processes, their CBD products are often formulated with specific amounts and ingredients tailored to their needs. Therefore, it's best to use CBD products specifically designed for the intended species.

Dog-specific CBD products may contain ingredients or flavorings that are safe for dogs but potentially harmful to cats, and vice versa. For example, our Fetch CBD Oil is safe for BOTH dogs and cats. However, our Fetch CBD Bites are ONLY for dogs as the molasses in them is unsafe for cats to consume. 

Our NASC, National Animal Supplement Council, certification ensures that our Fetch CBD products are properly labeled, have accurate ingredients, and meet all supplement requirements for your pet's health and wellness.
