FORT WORTH, TEXAS (September 27, 2018) –As Happy Healthy Cat Month comes to an end, Dr. Jen Kasten, technical services veterinarian at Tomlyn®, is sharing four tips to help pet owners ensure the happiness and healthiness of their felines all year round. Tomlyn is a world-class developer of scientifically formulated, veterinarian-approved animal health products.“Some pet owners make the common mistake of thinking cats are low maintenance, when in reality, cats require just as much daily attention and yearly veterinary care as their canine companions,” said Dr. Kasten. “Knowing the basics of feline veterinary care and providing them with the attention and love they need can help them stay happy and healthy.”Dr. Kasten’s tips for how to keep your cat happy and healthy are: Don’t skip playtime: Active cats are happy cats! In nature, cats thrive from regular exercise. You should make sure you are spending at least 10 minutes each day engaging your cat(s) in playtime. All cats have different prey preferences (mice, bird, bugs, etc.), so the type of toy you choose is entirely up to you and your cat, but common favorites are toy mice, laser pointers and feather wands. Schedule an annual veterinary exam: Seeing a veterinarian at least once a year for a general wellness exam is one of the best ways to prevent illness. During the exam, a vet will check your cat for signs of disease or anything unusual, assess their weight, provide necessary vaccinations and more. If your cat’s anxiety prevents you from making the trek to the vet, Tomlyn’s Relax & Calm Chews, given two to three hours before a vet appointment, can help cats that experience travel or veterinary anxiety. Keep an eye on the litter box: No one likes to clean the litter box, but it comes with the territory. Each litter box should be placed in an area that your cat frequently visits, and you should scoop the litter at least once a day. Not sure how many litter boxes you should have? It is recommended to have one litter box per cat, plus one more. The more litter boxes the better! Monitor their food intake: Nearly 60 percent of cats in the U.S. are overweight or obese. To prevent weight gain, consult your veterinarian to determine the best type and amount of food for your cat. If your cat is eating too much food at once, you can consider introducing an automatic feeder to regulate meal time instead of feeding freely. Giving regular feedings in food puzzles can also help slow down the rate of consumption and encourage more play activity. To provide your cat with extra nutrition, give them a Tomlyn Multi-Vitamin Chew with their food each day. Each chew provides nutrients essential for healthy eyes, bones, teeth, skin, brain and heart For more information about how to keep your cat happy and healthy, you can follow Tomlyn on Facebook and Instagram where the company will be sharing tips throughout the remainder of the month.Tomlyn cat products can be found at pet stores across the United States and on Amazon and Chewy.com.

Tomlyn Equine Supplements Can Help Keep Horses Healthy in Winter MonthsFORT WORTH, TX, November 14, 2017 – Winter can be hard on horses, from the cold temperatures to the close quarters of the barn. “Regardless of your horse’s job – be it competition or pleasure — keeping him active with proper nutrition during winter months is essential to maintaining their health during the off-season,” says Jennifer Kasten, DVM, technical services veterinarian for Tomlyn® Veterinary Science (www.tomlyn.com).Dr. Kasten highlights four ways to help benefit your horse’s health and well-being during the cold weather: Keep Moving: Fall and winter months are an important time for your competition horse to recover and condition in preparation for the next season, so keeping him moving is key. Have your horse walk forward with impulsion for 20-30 minutes per day to maintain joint mobility and strengthen his muscles. This can be performed in a number of ways – such as arena riding, lungeing or using a hot-walker or an underwater treadmill if you have access to one. Stretch Out: Stretching exercises can help increase flexibility and rage of motion, improve performance and help prevent injuries. Speak with your veterinarian on which stretching exercises are most appropriate and beneficial for your horse. Supplement for Health: To provide further support for your horse’s joints, consider adding a supplement such as Tomlyn Equistro® Artphyton to his regimen. “Equistro Artphyton contains key ingredients to contribute to your horse’s all around joint health,” says Dr. Kasten. “Glucosamine and devil’s claw in the product help support joint mobility.” Stabling your horse for the winter can also impact his respiratory and gastrointestinal health. Barns can be dusty, poorly ventilated and put horses in close quarters with each other, all of which can challenge a horse’s immune and respiratory systems. “Adding a supplement such as Tomlyn’s EPIC Daily Immune Support for Horses can provide extra support throughout the season thanks to the presence of N-Acetylcysteine, probiotics, and omega 3 and 6 fatty acids,” suggests Dr. Kasten. “The EPIC technology specifically helps enhance the immune response in the face of common respiratory and gastrointestinal challenges.” Catch Colic Early: Your horse has a very sensitive digestive system, which can become stressed during the seasonal transition. With a lack of green grass to graze, most owners will switch horses to hay which is much dryer. A horse also may not drink as much water as he does during hot weather, and he won’t be moving around as much when brought to stable. These can all lead to impaction colic which can be very painful for your horse, and if not addressed promptly, may be life-threatening for your horse. Dr. Kasten recommends making sure your horse stays hydrated by keeping water buckets clean and free of ice during the fall and winter months, and keeping him moving with regular exercise to help prevent signs of colic.

From Traveling to Holiday Decor, Tomlyn® Veterinarian Offers Advice to Keep Our Four-Legged Family Members Healthy During the HolidaysFORT WORTH, Texas (November 21, 2016) –– The holiday season brings with it many joys, but also a set of issues unique to pet owners.  “Whether it’s a house full of guests around an anxious pet, holiday food left unattended on kitchen counters or seasonal décor left out for the chewing, there is an increase in emergency vet visits this time of year*,” says Dr. Jim Lowe, technical services veterinarian at Tomlyn® pet products (www.Tomyln.com).Dr. Lowe highlights four common holiday pet mishaps and how to avoid them: Holiday Hosting: Groups of unknown people, along with the loud noises of holiday gatherings, can make a cat or dog anxious causing them act out, such as jumping up on guests or acting fearful. “Designate a quiet area for your pet away from the festivities, including his favorite toy or blanket so he has a place to retreat to,” suggests Dr. Lowe. “In addition, consider a calming supplement like Tomlyn’s Relax & Calm Chews, or Natural Pet Pharmaceutical Anxiety & Stress for Dogs and Cats, an all-natural, taste-free liquid formula that is added to your pet’s water to help relieve stress-related symptoms such as restlessness, whining and fear of loud noises.” Begging for Trouble: Treating your dog to a few table scraps may seem harmless, but if everyone at your holiday table sneaks a snack to your pooch, he will likely end up with some digestive issues.  “High fat foods, such as buttery mashed potatoes or gravy, can cause vomiting and dehydration,” explains Dr. Lowe.  “Prepare his tummy with a probiotic like Tomlyn’s Pre & Probiotic Water Soluble Powder, two weeks before the holiday, to help support proper digestive and bowel health.” Stash the Trash: “My experience is that dogs are more likely to get their food scraps from the kitchen trash versus the table, so make sure the kitchen garbage and outdoor garbage receptacles are tightly sealed so your dog isn’t having a feast on dangerous turkey bones while you are enjoying the distraction of company,” adds Dr. Lowe. Traveling Terrors: Traveling makes everyone a bit anxious, especially dogs and cats. A scared pet may whine, cry, scratch or even attempt to walk throughout a moving car creating an even more dangerous situation for all passengers. “If possible, try to prepare your pet for the trip by taking short car rides to get him comfortable in the car or carrier case,” suggests Dr. Lowe. “On the big day, pull your pet’s food and water in the morning to help prevent motion sickness or bathroom emergencies. And, if anxiety is something you know can’t be avoided, consider a non-drug calming supplement like Tomlyn’s Relax & Calm Chews specifically formulated with L-Tryptophan, chamomile and ginger, to help reduce hyperactivity and support relaxation in both dogs and cats.” Dangerous Decor: Although traditional for the season, holiday plants such as poinsettias, holly and mistletoe can cause nausea and vomiting if accidentally ingested by pets. “Don’t forget about tinsel and other dangling decorations that can be a favorite to cats and dogs alike, as they can potentially create blockages in the digestive tract if swallowed,” warns Dr. Lowe. “If your pet tends to chew, keep décor high up and out of reach, and opt for artificial plants.” Tomlyn® was founded in 1976 by a veterinarian.

From Hairballs to Hot Spots, Vet Offers AdviceFORT WORTH, Texas (July 26, 2016) –– It’s rare to find a  pet owner who hasn’t faced frustrating problems with their cat or dog, from common nuisances, such as pet anxiety, medication battles to itchy skin and hot spots. Dealing with these issues, however, doesn’t need to put a damper on the joy of pet ownership.Dr. Jim Lowe, technical services veterinarian at Tomlyn®, helps this 40-year-old pet product company provide easy solutions for pets and their owners. “Having a pet has so many benefits to people that shouldn’t be spoiled by these typically common issues many cats and dogs face,” he says. “At Tomlyn, we are dedicated to improving the life of both you and your pet through our effective and easy-to-use products.”Dr. Lowe outlines six frustrating pet problems and the products that can help:Hot SpotsHot Spots, which are also known as summer sores, occur when your dog itches, scratches or licks himself excessively until the skin breaks and becomes infected by the bacteria in the dog’s mouth. More common during times of high humidity, hot spots can appear on any age or breed of dog. The key to helping the skin return to a healthy state is keeping the infected area clean and free of additional licking or scratching. Tomlyn’s Hot Spot Spray Allercaine™ is an easy-to-use solution that helps prevent infection, reduce pain and itching, and soothe your dog’s irritated skin. It also contains Bittran II™ “Bitter Apple” to deter additional licking and biting of the infected area.Itchy and IrritatedWhether environment or allergy-related, dogs can get itchy skin for many reasons. Tomlyn’s Skin & Itch Irritations for Dog provides symptomatic relief of: Irritated, red, burning, itchy, dry, rough, scaly, chapped or cracked skin, rashes, fleabite dermatitis, hot spots, excessive gnawing or licking, skin eruptions, hair loss, or generally unhealthy skin.Pet Pill ProblemsLike people, many dogs and cats take medications on a regular basis, but getting the pills into them can be a daily struggle. Hiding the pills in food can be tricky since these animals have a keen sense of smell and are hard to fool. Tomlyn’s Pill-Masker for dogs and cats is easy-to-use and wraps pills of all shapes and sizes, and comes in a highly palatable bacon flavor.  This tasty paste won’t stick to floors or furniture.Behavior BattlesBehavior issues are a common problem with dogs under the age of three due to environmental factors, such as moving or separation anxiety. Additionally, many dogs and cats with serious behavior issues and lack of training are either abandoned or turned into shelters. Dr. Lowe says good training is key, but if your dog gets anxious at times when left alone or during thunderstorms, for example,  Tomlyn Relax & Calm chews (available in packages for medium and large dogs or cats and small dogs), can help calm your pet during these stressful situations. This concentrated formula promotes better compliance through its formula, including L-Tryptophan, chamomile and ginger.Hairball HurdlesAlthough a natural process for most cats, hairballs are caused when a pet ingests hair into its digestive tract, usually while grooming itself. While most hairballs are eliminated in the litter box, some sit in the stomach or small intestines and create a “ball” that cannot escape through traditional routes. Tomlyn’s Hairball Remedy – Laxatone® comes in a chew or a lubricant that are both gentle and effective in eliminating and preventing hairballs in cats and ferrets.Litterbox OdorsLitterbox odors are worsened by the bacteria that live in the animal’s waste. In addition to regular litterbox cleanings, an easy way to lessen waste odors is to help promote the growth of the good gut bacteria. Tomlyn’s Pre & Probiotic supplement for dogs and cats, a water-soluble powder that contains the highest CFU levels amongst veterinary probiotics, supports balanced microbial flora and intestinal health.Tomlyn was founded in 1976 by a veterinarian. Many of their products contain the highest levels of the active ingredients allowed for OTC supplements and are formulated to exceed industry-mandated standards.

20% of Pet Owners¹ in the New Tomlyn® Pet Health Survey* Report that Their Dogs and Cats Experience Anxiety When They Left The House; Vet Expert Discusses Common Triggers, Stress Signs and Solutions for Pet OwnersFORT WORTH, Texas, April 29, 2016 – Excessive panting in the car or cowering when new guests arrive are just some of the signs of pet anxiety. "Pet owners often think anxiety only manifests itself as trembling or ‘tail between the legs,’ but a pet may be sending stress signals in other ways, and there’s things that be done about it,” says Dr. Jim Lowe, technical services veterinarian for Tomlyn pet health products (https://tomlyn.com).Excessive shedding, pinned ears, continual yawning, nose licking and avoidance are some other signs. “Dogs and cats rescued from shelters can be fearful from previous trauma or neglect,” Lowe explains. “But even animals adopted through breeders or friends can develop high-stress personalities depending on the situation.”What can set off pet stress? Dr. Lowe summarizes some common situations: Separation: If your pet appears depressed or anxious before you leave, begins to pace, urinates/defecates when left alone even for short periods, reportedly barks or meows excessively while you are gone, or causes any type of destruction while you are away from home, separation anxiety could be the root cause. “This can occur during the workday or even when part of your family leaves, such as when kids go back to school at the end of summer – our pets get used to us being around and some stress out when we aren’t,” explains Dr. Lowe. Traveling: Pets can display travel anxiety even before the trip begins. You may notice him panting, pacing, shaking, acting hyper aroused, barking/meowing excessively, salivating, vomiting and possibly urinating while you are making preparations to leave – sometimes even packing a bag can be a trigger. “We think dogs love to stick their heads out the car window and take in the rush of wind, but there are many dogs that are very anxious to be on the go,” says Dr. Lowe. “They may even yawn repetitively as a sign of anxiety.” Noise: Fireworks and other loud noises such as construction work, music and thunder can cause extreme anxiety in our domestic pets. During these situations you may notice your pet trembling, whimpering, panting, constantly seeking your attention or protection, or attempting to run away/escape from the noise by hiding under furniture, in dark rooms, etc. “This is probably the most common stress-factor in our pets, and it’s often one we can’t control,” adds Dr. Lowe. “Loud thunder or jack hammers outside your apartment building may come no matter what we do.” Meeting New People: While you know that the stranger is trying to be friendly – adult or child – your pet may not see it that way. According to the Tomlyn Pet Health survey, one in four pets is nervous or antsy around new people. “When a stranger walks up to him, the stress may be obvious if your pet attempts to back away, growls/hisses, barks/meows excessively or tries to snap, bite or scratch, but there are other less obvious signs like pinned ears or lowering their stance that means they are anxious,” explains Dr. Lowe. Dr. Lowe advises that the best way to reduce anxiety in our pets, particularly in the things we can control – like separation or meeting strangers – is to gradually expose your pet to these changes, conditioning them to cope with each in time. Avoidance of the situation just perpetuates the issue. For loud noises that are unavoidable – like thunder or fireworks on 4th of July - try to bring your pet to a quieter place, such as an interior room, or to play soft music as a distraction.In addition to behavioral conditioning, consider using a calming supplement like Tomlyn® Relax & Calm Chews for cats or dogs. Specifically formulated with L-Tryptophan, chamomile and ginger, Tomlyn Relax & Calm Chews support balanced behavior, relaxation and reduced hyperactivity in large to small dogs and cats.“Adding a supplement such as Tomlyn® Relax & Calm Chews can be incredibly helpful when transitioning your pets to feel less anxious in these situations,” summarizes Dr. Lowe. “Its natural ingredients help your pet to feel relaxed as you continue to gradually expose your pet to the environments that can cause anxiety and distress.”For more information, visit www.Tomlyn.com.About Tomlyn®:Tomlyn®, a pet health and wellness company founded in 1976, carries a complete line of scientifically developed, veterinarian-approved pet health products.

Tomlyn® Trifectant Disinfectant is at the Ready for this Resurgence of Highly Contagious H3N2 Strand; Now Cats Also at RiskFORT WORTH, Texas, April 14, 2016 – Tomlyn, makers of the popular line of pet health and wellness products, is actively monitoring the supply and availability of its Trifectant® broad-spectrum disinfectant, which is capable of killing 99.9% of major viral, bacterial and fungal pathogens, including those that cause canine flu. It’s used in facilities where there is a large population of animals where diseases can more easily spread, such as animal shelters, boarding kennels, etc., though it can be used at home, as well.The resurgence of the H3N2 strand of the canine flu in the Midwest, which is thought to be the same as last year’s deadly outbreak, is likely to be brought upon by the spring weather. The canine virus has already been reported in multiple states this year, but is now spreading among cats.An animal shelter in Chicago1 recently reported more than 150 sickened dogs at their location. Last year, the Chicago area was faced with 1,700 infected dogs. Surprisingly, a group of cats in a shelter in northwestern Indiana2 have recently been infected with the influenza virus, which previously was thought to only affect dogs.“The canine flu sickened hundreds of dogs in 28 states last year, and has the potential to spread even further, “ says Dr. Jim Lowe, technical services veterinarian for Tomlyn. “With pets becoming more active and social in the springtime, it is important to protect them from this highly contagious disease.”The virus has an incubation period of one to three days, but infected pets can be contagious for up to two weeks. Symptoms include coughing, nasal discharge, fever and loss of appetite. It is currently not a threat to humans. Although vaccines are available for the H3N8 strand, this H3N2 strand of canine flu is fairly new. In November 20153, the U.S. Department of Agriculture granted a conditional license to market the first commercially available H3N2 canine influenza vaccine.The virus most commonly spreads among animals through close contact at daycare centers, boarding facilities, dog parks and similar areas where there are larger group of dogs or cats. According to Dr. Lowe, facilities should aim to prevent the virus spreading by properly disinfecting with a product like Tomlyn’s Trifectant. It mixes with water for a ready-to-use solution that is safe for humans and animals, biodegradable and effective at killing pathogens that cause canine flu, parvovirus and other diseases that can affect dogs, cats, horses or other animals. It is available over-the-counter from a variety of local retailers.
