Just look at this cat. Straight chill.
Acupuncture is used for cats and dogs to treat musculoskeletal and chronic pain ailments like arthritis or even gastrointestinal problems.Tiny needles are inserted at certain points on the animal, relieving pain by stimulating blood circulation.
The practice has recently started to gain popularity. Even Toast (RIP) was known to partake in the occasional poke.
It doesn’t stop with cats and dogs, either. This albino alligator named Bino used it to treat his scoliosis. It was the first ever case of an albino alligator recieving acupuncture and it’s magic.
