Animal Care formula was created from research done over the past three years by Andrea Freixeda, a flower essence practitioner and biologist living in Sao Paulo, Brazil. Andrea works out of her own clinic, called Biofauna, and also offers her animal rescue services to various ecological parks and animal sanctuaries in the greater Sao Paulo area. The current political and socioeconomic situation in Brazil makes it difficult for animal clinics like Biofauna to maintain adequate funding. In recognition of this, AFEP is donating a percentage of profits from the sale of this formula to support Biofauna and similar animal sanctuaries in Brazil.

Animal Care is primarily intended for use in animal rescue work, although it can be given to any animal in need. It will be most valuable when it is integrated into the initial care protocol provided for any animal who arrives at an animal shelter, treatment center, veterinarian clinic, or sanctuary.

Use Animal Care for wild animals that:

• Are brought to a clinic because their habitats have been damaged or destroyed
• Have lived for some time in pet shops, and subsequently in the homes of people, in isolation from other members of their own species.
• Are agitated, irritated, and exhibiting aggressive behavior, which may be endangering themselves, other animals, or humans.
• Must be kept in captivity in a shelter, sanctuary, or zoo, because their injuries cannot be fully healed, and need to be handled in order to receive treatment.
• Are suffering from “toxic” interference from their contact with the public and need to release this energy so they can be released back into the wild.

Use Animal Care for domestic animals that:

• Have been voluntarily given up to an animal care shelter because their owners can no longer care for them.
• Have lived in conditions where the care given them was inadequate, the living environment toxic, and the relationship with their humans abusive.
• Have been abandoned and then rescued off of the street after a prolonged struggle for survival that included inadequate food and shelter.
• Are exhibiting self-aggressive behavior.
• Live in large cities, are restricted from normal contact with nature, and are alone for much of the day.

The Alaskan Essences can be easily integrated into any program of animal care. Dosage bottles can be prepared according to the directions given above, with special consideration given to the following points.

Animals are generally more responsive to essences than humans, therefore, the dosage cycle for an animal will usually be for a shorter duration. For this reason we recommend that glycerine be used as a preservative instead of brandy. With chronic situations, drops from the dosage bottle may be added to the watering dish every time it is filled. For acute situations, or when the animal is unable to eat or drink regularly, give drops directly to the animal as often as necessary.

For animals who are unable to take their essences orally, and for those who are suffering from external injuries, add essences to a spritzer bottle and spray them around or directly on the animal, or if possible, rub them directly into the coat or onto the skin.

Animal Care is also found as a spray.
