There may always be a time when a pet owner will find their pet unconscious, not breathing, and with no pulse–a time when pet health becomes of immediate concern with very little time allowed. One of the first things a pet owner who practices natural therapy will do is use a fingernail, a needle, or some type of sharp object to jab the emergency acupressure point referred to as the GV26, located halfway between the nose and upper lip.

If the pet still does not respond, practice CPR and external heart massage alternately. After five minutes of mouth-to-mouth or CPR, place Arnica 30c (two pellets) under her tongue. Arnica 30c is a natural ingredient used as a  blood purifier and acts as a blood thinner as well. After another five minutes, repeat the CPR or mouth-to-mouth treatments.

• Place the pet on its side on a firm area
• Use one hand for a small cat or dog, use two for a larger pet
• Press firmly over the lower chest directly behind the front elbow, releasing quickly
• The time frame is once per second, 60 times a minute
• Use firm pressure only in a percussive manner, as too much pressure is harmful
• Once the heartbeat resumes, stop the CPR

Observe the animal’s health and physical gum characteristics. If a pet’s heart stops beating, the gums will turn pale from lack of blood flow. Once the animal revives, they will develop a pink color.

Once the breathing resumes, place a flower mixture for emergency rescue referred to as Rescue Remedy, Calming Essence, or Five Flower Formula (depending on the manufacturer) in her mouth, behind the ears, on her nose, on her abdomen and on her paw pads. Repeat every 30 minutes until the animal reaches the veterinarian.

For those who practice color therapy, shine a lemon yellow light on the face of the ill animal once it resumes breathing and also on the front side. Apply the color magenta to the heart area afterwards.  The use of light when entering the animal’s eye will activate the hypothalamus–an area which controls the nervous and endocrine systems.

• Magenta—balances the pet’s emotions while strengthening and balancing the heart, circulatory system, kidneys, adrenals and reproductive organs.
• Lemon Yellow—this color dissolves an animal’s blood clots while treating the pet’s chronic disorder; helps their body gradually repair itself by improving internal nutrition.

Areas such as the thyroid, pineal, thymus and sex glands, pituitary and adrenal glands are dependent on the eyes’ exposure to natural light, which is why color healing therapy is so excellent to practice. These glands affect many area of pets, such as their sleep patterns, body temperatures, growth, their immune system, circulation, energy balance, blood pressure, emotions, breathing and so on.
