Guide on CBD Oil for Cats

How Does CBD for Cats Work?

CBD can benefit your pets – and all mammals – through the Endocannabinoid System (ECS). The ECS is a network of receptors, enzymes and compounds called endocannabinoids, which work to regulate several functions throughout the body. Although recently discovered, evidence suggests that the ECS may be responsible for important biological processes, such as pain sensation, appetite, memory, mood, sleep, oil secretion and more. While the body produces its own endocannabinoids to work with this system, preliminary findings support that the ECS may respond to plant-derived cannabinoids like CBD. This factor gives promise when considering how CBD may work for a number of discomforts in humans and animals alike.

Is CBD Cat Oil Safe?

As mentioned earlier, our CBD Cat Oil is made from human-grade ingredients and is even safe to take yourself. Made with four simple ingredients – grape seed oil, MCT Oil, pure CBD extract and artificial flavoring – our CBD Oil gives your feline more of what they need and less of the unnecessary additives they don’t. You may be asking yourself, “Grape seed oil? Isn’t that toxic to pets?” No, grape seeds and grape seed oil are not toxic to pets – you would be thinking of the skin and pulp of grapes, which are certainly harmful to your fur family. Grape seed oil, as the name suggests, is pressed from the seeds of grapes, which according to the ASPCA show no data indicating risks due to exposure to the extract. Rather, this extract is a powerful antioxidant that is sold in many pet stores due to its anti-inflammatory and anti-allergen properties. Additionally, we know that THC is toxic to pets, so like all Hemp Bombs products, our CBD Cat Oil contains less than 0.3% THC – the federal legal limit and an amount so small that it will not cause your cat to experience psychoactive effects or a “high.” Likewise, our CBD Oil for cats is not associated with any adverse side effects for your pet. But in the case that you’ve given your pet too much CBD or they’ve sneakily gotten into the bottle, they might experience more sluggishness but should return to their normal state after rest and relaxation.
