Nine-year-old Rascal was adopted by Ceres and husband Jim when he was two years old. He shares his home with 16-year-old Jinxi, 4-year-old brothers Gyoza and Gnoshi, 4-year-old Ozzy and Messi, and 2-year-old Princess. All cats are rescues.
Rascal was very independent and somewhat troubled when he first joined the family. “We accepted him and love him as he was and what he is, and over the years we have gained his complete trust, love and loyalty,” Ceres said.
Mysterious leg injury
About two years ago, Rascal had an unfortunate accident. Neither Ceres nor Jim witnessed the accident, but he appears to have sustained serious injuries to his left leg. “We noticed he was lame, and progressing to where it was difficult to walk a short distance because he couldn’t put any weight on his left foot, in fact he was doing it,” Ceres said. Next, he sustained an open wound in the bend of his shin. Cerise and Jim also noted that Rascal’s “good” right leg appeared to be affected, most likely due to his compensating loss of function from his left leg. They later learned he had arthritis in his “healthy” leg. After two visits to the vet, it was determined that Rascal may have had a ruptured or ruptured Achilles tendon. They consulted with a veterinary surgeon just before Thanksgiving 2021 to get a treatment opinion and assess whether the Racal needs surgery, or if other options exist.
The surgeon did not believe that Rascal was in severe pain. I told them that even with surgery there is no guarantee of eventual recovery: Rascal may have a limp, the degree of severity of which is unknown, and possibly a recurrence of the injury. Surgery requires strict follow-up after care, including eight to ten weekly visits to change dressings and treat any infection; Re-casting, PT performance, etc. Rascal should be kept in a box at home and an electronic collar worn for eight to ten weeks.
“We both know that all of this would break Rascal’s soul forever,” Jim said. “He got very nervous when he was put in the trunk and driven into a car.” They asked about the amputation, but were told Rascal had to lose five pounds before Which Surgery can be performed. The extra weight can put a lot of pressure on his useful leg. Finally, it was very likely that doing nothing would cause both legs to fail in the end. For Dennis and Jim, it meant that Rascal was staring at the end of life square’s face. “It was just a matter of quality of life, and when.”
Radical improvements in the Assisi Loop after only five days
They felt, and the vet agreed, that as long as Rascal was playing, eating, staying social, and didn’t seem to be in pain, he was enjoying a good quality of life. This became Jim and Denise’s motto: preserve and increase the quality of his life. They said, “How to decide Rascal’s treatment plan was like flipping a coin.” “One aspect was that we felt we were unable to provide Rascal the coercive care needed to recover from the option of surgery. The other was Rascal’s fiercely independent spirit, physical size and strength. When his level of confidence, which we had worked for years to obtain, was exceeded, he could Rascal being frightfully dangerous And the We will risk losing his trust forever.” She felt that flipping that coin was an unprofitable situation.
“Until we found the Ring of Assisi,” said Jim. “Of course, it didn’t take us just a few days to reach that clever clarity—instead, the number of weeks/months or so to monitor Rascal’s progress, research, torture ourselves, make a decision and make a plan, and obtain the necessary care materials.”
Dennis and Jim put together a plan. “We designed the plan around several components: the first and most important being the daily Rascal pattern within the family.” They have taken into account that there should be regular daily play time and exercise routine, which will help him to improve and provide us with visual feedback of progress.
They determined the frequency of Loop’s treatments, medication, and homeopathy that were all part of his treatment plan. Finally, they understood that there would be an acute phase of treatment (during which successful improvement would be achieved), followed by a maintenance phase (most likely) of lifelong therapy. “It helped having Cat Daddy full time to administer the treatment during the day, with the Crazy Cat Lady to administer the medications into the daily meals,” Jim said.
Jim said, “Putting the ring either directly over the leg or under the blanket Rascal was lying on wasn’t a problem if you followed one rule, don’t put the ring on for the first 15 minutes after the patient is lying down. Make sure they’re going to take a really good nap!” That, along with Combined with medications, the homeopathic drops have worked together over time to bring about drastic and impressive improvements in Rascal leg function.
Initially, Rascal had a minimum of two sessions aiming for three Loop treatments each day, separated by at least 30 minutes between sessions. “Ideally we would put the ring on both legs individually, but we considered it a plus when we put the ring between his hind legs, one on top of the other, while he slept on his side (bench, sofa, tower, floor) – anywhere he was obviously He sleeps for at least 30-60 minutes (often).”
After only five days they noticed a noticeable improvement. “He was more active, playing and feeling much better and his open hock wound was starting to heal!” The acute treatment phase lasted approximately four weeks. “By then we couldn’t recognize the paralyzed old man! Rascal was moving faster, some even running, scratching the ears with both legs, and sitting normally on both hind legs (a classic bust), rather than curling up to one side (the lady’s side saddle). ), playing a storm and even wrestling with Brother Ozzy!”
Rascal is currently in the maintenance phase. “We give maintenance Loop treatments three to five times a week,” Jim said, depending on how the Rascal walks. They treat both his left leg injury as well as both legs for arthritis in addition to his left physical injury. He still receives tear repair drops the same day he receives the cyclic treatment.
“The Assisi Loop is simply stunning, stress-free to use and apply, and simply stated works,” said Dennis and Jim. “Seeing him able to walk around and be the happy, cheerful, talkative, loving boy he used to be, we know without a doubt we made the right choice. Thank you, Assisi!”
How does the Assisi loop work
The Assisi Ring, created by Assisi Animal Health, is a non-pharmaceutical, non-invasive device that delivers targeted pulsed electromagnetic field (tPEMF™) therapy. tPEMF, first studied in the 1970s and approved by the FDA for use in humans, uses low-level pulses of electromagnetic energy to stimulate the body’s own healing mechanisms to help relieve pain and swelling. This treatment can benefit cats with pain associated with arthritis, pancreatitis, wounds or swelling after surgery, as well as many inflammatory conditions. The ring is well tolerated by most cats. In fact, many cats really enjoy receiving Loop treats. Because the ring stimulates the body’s own healing process, rather than introducing a new substance (such as medicine), even a cat’s sensitive body can handle it easily.
Supported by scientific research
A two-year, double-blind study at North Carolina State College of Veterinary Medicine looked at the use of the ring as part of pre- and post-operative treatment to reduce pain and speed recovery in dogs undergoing spinal surgery. The results of this study undoubtedly demonstrate the ability of the Loop not only to reduce pain, but also to help injured nerve tissue to recover faster.
