Herbal remedies for pets

Bridget Quatmann of Roanoke Animal Hospital will speak about holistic, integrated veterinary medicine and the use of herbs at Virginia Western Community College on Saturday, March 29, at 10 a.m. in the Natural Science Center.

The speech is part of "Scarborough Faire: In Celebration of Parsley, Sage, Rosemary and Thyme," a day-long event sponsored by The Herb Society of Southwestern Virginia. Admission is free, but there will be a plant sale that will benefit VWCC horticulture students.

(Editors' note: I am so sorry if that song is now stuck in your head for the rest of the day.)

According to the press release, Quatmann "is a certified veterinary acupuncturist and herbalist who practices integrative veterinary medicine by applying acupuncture, Chinese herbs and diet therapy for a wide array of conditions."

I would attend, but I am out of town that weekend. If you get to go, post a comment and let us know what you think.
