Taking a holistic approach to pet nutrition and wellness

In the world of pet care, Elizabeth Casas is a name that stands out for her transformative approach to animal health.

Once an engineer, Casas made a remarkable career shift to become a certified holistic pet health coach.

Her journey began with a personal mission: to save her cat, Lumiere, from the debilitating effects of pancreatitis.

Today, Casas is a beacon for pet owners seeking a proactive, balanced approach to pet wellness. Her story is a testament to the power of natural healing, nutrition, and mindful care in pets’ lives.

For Casas, the key to pet health starts at home with small, manageable changes. “Start with the basics,” she advises. “Transition your pets to whole, nutrient-rich foods. Incorporate mindful moments and play into their day, and focus on reducing stress and anxiety.”

She emphasizes that while diet is critical, it’s just one part of the holistic picture. Overall well-being includes emotional, mental, and physical health.

In her own home, Lumiere now thrives on a diet that includes chicken, carrots, and kale (lightly cooked down in a slow cooker) - a reflection of the nutrient-dense, fresh food approach Casas advocates. The results speak for themselves, with Lumiere’s recovery serving as a powerful example of what’s possible through holistic care.

Casas offers a 90-day program designed to take pet parents on a holistic journey towards wellness. This includes tips on pet nutrition for every budget, transitioning away from commercial kibble, and holistic treatment options for aging or sick pets. She offers personalized guidance, ensuring that pet owners feel empowered to make informed decisions that support their pets’ overall health.

For pet owners looking to dive deeper into their pet’s health, she will be teaching a Pet Nutrition Workshop on Sunday, September 15, 2024 from 11 a.m. to 12 p.m. at BARC. RSVP online to learn more.
