    66 - Transitioning a Cat To New Food

    66 - Transitioning a Cat To New Food

    Toni and Emily invite HPP assistant manager and certified cat lady: Lindsay onto the show to talk all things cats! Lindsay has 7 cats and knows the ins and outs of cat life. She has been through everything from picky eating to raw feeding and introducing a new cat. Toni and Emily talk in depth with Lindsay about how she recommends and handles transitioning cats and kittens to new food. Cats are very sensitive to textures, they even imprint on certain shapes, and textured foods. It can be very challenging to put a cat at any age on a new food! 
    Toni, Emily, and Lindsay summarize the number of cats Lindsay has, how she acquired so many cats, and what has led her to being such a fan of cats! They enjoy small banter about their experience with cats and the quirky stories about adding to cats to the colony, and Emily’s experience with her cat. They talk about how they started their cats on raw food, and rotating foods since they were kittens, and how it can be challenging to transition an older cat to a new food. Lindsay takes the time to talk with Toni and Emily about tips and tricks for transitioning your cat to a new food. They also expand on the importance and relevance of rotating your cat's proteins and textures. Just like dogs, cats need to be exposed to new proteins and textures to fill nutritional gaps, boost their immune system, and prevent the struggle of picky eating.

    65 - Learning About Synthetics

    65 - Learning About Synthetics

    In this episode of Toni Unleashed, we explore synthetic vitamins and minerals in pet food with Emily from Raw Dynamic. While these additives help make pet food complete and balanced, they can compete with natural nutrients for absorption. Emily explains that synthetic vitamins lack essential synergistic compounds found in natural ones and can lead to degraded cells and absorption issues. This competition may result in deficiencies or imbalances, affecting your dog's immune function, skin health, and overall well-being. To mitigate this, prioritize natural, whole-food sources in your dog’s diet and choose food made with real meat, fruits, and vegetables. Investing in your dog’s health by reducing synthetic additives can positively impact their longevity and quality of life.

    64 - Decoding Fats: The Key to Canine Longevity

    64 - Decoding Fats: The Key to Canine Longevity

    In this episode, we explore how different types of fats profoundly influence the health and lifespan of our pets. Moving beyond the common discourse of low-fat versus high-fat diets, we emphasize the critical role specific fat types play in nurturing gut health and extending longevity.
    Referencing research from "The Canine Cocomega Effect," we shed light on how diverse fats shape the microbiome and overall lifespan of our furry companions. Throughout the discussion, we analyze the roles of various fats, such as seed oils, animal fats, and coconut oil, supported by robust scientific evidence. Additionally, we highlight the importance of maintaining the omega-3 to omega-6 ratio to manage allergies and reduce inflammation, crucial for optimal pet health.
    Furthermore, we address the pressing issue of fat oxidation during pet food manufacturing, exploring strategies to preserve the nutritional integrity of our pets' diets.
    In conclusion, we recognize fats as integral components in our pets' overall well-being, not just dietary elements. Armed with a deeper understanding of fats and their effects, we empower ourselves to make informed choices that enhance the longevity and vitality of our pets.

    63 - Past, Present, and Future

    63 - Past, Present, and Future

    In today's episode, we're diving into our journey—past, present, and future—with Cydnee, a key player behind Toni Unleashed, joining us to share her insights. It all started when COVID pushed us into making remote videos that we realized our potential beyond, so we launched this podcast. From recording in a simple storage unit to learning the ropes with Buzzy's guidance, we've grown while having a blast with guests and plenty of wine. 
     
    Emily has recently moved on to Raw Dynamic but remains connected to Healthy Pet Products and Toni Unleashed through Toni's mentorship. As she thrives in her new role, we're excited for what's ahead, including Emily's deeper involvement with Raw Dynamic for potential episodes in the future. 
     
    Join us as we reflect, live in the moment, and eagerly anticipate the future—because we want you, our amazing listeners, to be part of this journey with us!
