The most common issues seen by companion mammal veterinarians are diet-related. Some pets require a little extra support to be at their best. Our supplements are formulated with premium herbal ingredients that support specific health and wellness needs in small pets.

Companion mammals are living longer, healthier lives because of improvements in care and nutrition. With longevity comes an increase in chronic health conditions that need long-term support.

As the human-animal bond strengthens, pet parents’ desire to provide the best quality of life increases. Natural Science supplements are made with high quality timothy hay, making them highly palatable and nutritious to small animals.
