CANCER in PETS
Cancer
is the unrestrained growth of cells that destroy normal tissues and body
organs. There are many different types of cancer and each one carries a
different prognosis or outcome. Treatment options may include surgery,
radiation therapy, chemotherapy, pain relief, complementary therapies including
nutritional supplements, diet, herbs, or a combination of therapies. Many
factors are involved in the decision making process, from the effects of the
therapy on your pet, financial considerations, stress on everyone and the
long-term prognosis.
With appropriate treatments we aim to slow your pet’s deterioration and to give your pet the best quality of life. The course of the disease is often unpredictable. The goals of treatment are to try to prolong life and make your pet as comfortable and happy as possible.

Herbal Medicine
Traditional
medicine has long relied on animal studies to establish the science of its
treatment modalities. Philippine alternative medicine provides another
contrast. Philippine herbs, long established in the folklore of healing, has
found new interest in its application to animal health with ongoing
ethnoveterinary studies and projects on livestock and small animals.
This section on Philippine Herbs and Animals is a compilation done by M. Leila Santiago-Flores, a practicing veterinarian in Los Baños. The compilation is on herbal use in small animals, sourced from published articles, unpublished theses, and interviews.
It underscores the widening interest in the use of Philippine herbs. Hopefully, it provides another avenue for the merging of traditional and alternative medicine, as positive results confirm and find renewed applications for human use. In the meantime, alas, some veterinarian alternativists are likely to`suffer the scorn of some traditionalist practitioners denigrating them as "animal-bularyos."
