Why trust this

A trained human already did the reading

Most natural pet advice comes from a faceless site with an affiliate link and no idea who wrote it. This comes from a person with a name, a face, and the training to tell you what will harm your cat.

The credentials

Head research assistant on a veterinary herbal textbook

The Clinical Handbook of Chinese Veterinary Herbal Medicine, alongside two veterinarians and two doctors of Oriental medicine.

The training

52 modules, all of them finished

Animal naturopathy, nutrition, herbology, and aromatherapy. The full curriculum, plus naturopathic and Chinese medicine training on the human side.

The safety line

Someone who will flatly tell you no

Tea tree oil can kill a cat. Plenty of things sold as gentle and natural can too. You'll get a straight no, and the reason behind it.

Michelle, founder of Furry Farmacy, trained in animal naturopathy, with her dog Bruno

Hello there

Hi, I'm Michelle

Animals were my first love. As a teenager I was headed for vet school, working alongside a holistic vet and soaking up everything I could, right down to serving as head research assistant on the Clinical Handbook of Chinese Veterinary Herbal Medicine (Signe Beebe, DVM, Michael Salewski, DVM, Lorena Monda, DOM, and John Scott, DOM).

Life pointed me toward people for a while. I trained in naturopathic and Chinese medicine, and for almost eight years I've helped doctors, nurses, naturopaths, chiropractors, physical therapists, and nutritionists bring their life-changing work to the online world.

Somewhere along the way I fell for the other half of that work too, helping people build something of their own online. Taking what they already know and turning it into a life that actually fits them. I still do that, in another corner of my world, and it might be my favorite thing after the animals.

Now I'm coming full circle, back to where it all started. Furry Farmacy is where I bring it together, everything I've learned about natural, whole-body wellness, and pass it along to the people who love their animals as much as I love mine. Bruno (aka my señor good boy, sweet pea, peanut, bean, bean tree, sweet bean, beancake, brunillo, brunice) fully endorses this.

The question everyone's thinking

You could just ask an AI

Go ahead. Ask it why your dog won't stop scratching.

You'll get twelve possibilities, four caveats, a thoughtful paragraph about how every animal is an individual, and a polite suggestion to see your vet. All of it correct, and you're still standing in the kitchen at midnight with no idea what to do first.

I already sat through the twelve possibilities. Fifty-two modules of them, plus the years of study behind the textbook I helped research. What I hand you is what's left once all of that has been sifted, the small handful of things worth trying first, in the order worth trying them, with the amounts written down.

An AI will keep expanding your options forever. My whole job is narrowing them to the one you can start tonight.

The book

The natural pet farmacy is already in your kitchen

Bone broth. Pumpkin. A little turmeric. Your pantry does more heavy lifting than the supplement aisle ever will, and this book tells you which one to reach for, for which animal, and how much.

The Safety Vault. Tea tree oil can kill a cat. So can a diffuser running in the wrong room. You get the whole keep-away list, the oils and plants and foods, plus the signs that mean call the vet today rather than tomorrow.
A decision, written down. For each of the seven things you look up at midnight (itchy skin, upset tummies, hairballs, anxiety, urinary, joints, everyday prevention) you get what to reach for and how much. Then you close the laptop.
Written for cats as carefully as for dogs. Every chapter covers both, because their bodies genuinely work differently. Most natural pet advice hands a cat the dog answer and hopes.
Recipes measured in grams. Bone broth, the settling meal, fresh toppers, simple treats. Ordinary ingredients, weighed properly, so nothing is left to your best guess at 11pm.

It's $37 for the first 100 founding readers. The book is brand new, it has no reviews yet, and the first hundred people are taking a chance on it sight unseen. The founding price is what that chance is worth. After 100 copies it goes to $67 and stays there. If you're one of the hundred, I'd love to hear what you think once you've read it.

Good questions

Questions, answered

The honest answers to what dog and cat parents ask us most.

Is this a replacement for my vet?

No, and it never will be. Furry Farmacy is educational and naturally-minded, built to work alongside your veterinarian rather than in place of one. Everything here is a starting point for gentle everyday support and prevention. Diagnosing and treating is your vet's job, and a good holistic vet will happily do both. (Looking for one? Find one near you here.)

Is this for dogs, cats, or both?

Both, and we treat them as the different animals they are. Cats have their own biology (plenty of things that are fine for a dog can harm a cat), so cat guidance is written for cats, never borrowed from the dog version. Everything is tagged by pet, concern, and life stage so you land in the right place fast.

Are natural remedies safe for my pet?

When they're chosen thoughtfully and matched to the right animal, gentle natural support can be a lovely everyday addition. The key word is thoughtfully. We stick to supporting healthy function (think a healthy coat or a calmer baseline), flag cat-specific cautions clearly, and always tell you what to run past your vet first. When in doubt, leave it out and ask.

Do you cover puppies and kittens too?

Yes, from tiny to silver-whiskered. Natural care shifts with age, so everything is sorted by life stage (puppy and kitten, adult, and senior).

How does the free plan work?

Answer a few quick questions about your dog or cat and you'll get a personalized natural care plan, the common contributors to look at and where to start, matched to your pet. Add your name and email at the end and we'll send a copy to keep. Free.
