Join Melissa Mezzalira, founder of CatsEssentials and host of Felinésse, for an eye-opening conversation with Dr. Odette Suter, DVM — holistic veterinarian, bestselling author, and educator with over 30 years of experience helping cats heal chronic illness at the root level. In this episode, we explore one of the most misunderstood drivers of feline health problems: leaky gut and chronic inflammation. Dr. Suter explains, clearly and compassionately, how damage to the gut lining can quietly trigger allergies, arthritis, urinary issues, behavioral changes, immune dysfunction, and long-term disease, even when cats show no obvious digestive symptoms. Dr. Suter also breaks down how environmental toxins, household chemicals, EMF and Wi-Fi exposure, chronic stress, and emotional imbalance impact a cat’s immune and nervous systems. You’ll learn the key differences between conventional and true holistic veterinary care, why symptom-based treatments often fall short, and how proactive, preventive wellness can dramatically improve quality of life — especially for indoor and senior cats. This empowering conversation gives cat parents practical, actionable steps to reduce inflammation, support gut healing, create a cleaner home environment, and advocate more confidently for their cat’s long-term health.
