Top 5 Questions Pet Owners Have About CBD for Pets

As interest in natural wellness products grows, more pet owners are exploring CBD (cannabidiol) as part of their dog or cat’s routine. With so much information out there, it’s normal to have questions. In this FAQ-style guide, we’ll walk through some of the most common questions pet parents ask about CBD for pets.

1. Is CBD Safe for Pets?

CBD is a non-psychoactive compound derived from hemp. Unlike THC, it does not create a “high.” PETiva products are formulated specifically for dogs and cats and are always THC-free.

As with any supplement, it’s important to follow the usage instructions on the label and consult your veterinarian before introducing something new — especially if your pet takes medication or has existing health conditions.

2. Why Do Pet Owners Choose CBD for Their Pets?

Pet owners explore CBD for many reasons, such as:

• Interest in plant-based options

• Preference for THC-free, hemp-derived products

• Curiosity about incorporating CBD into their pet’s wellness routine

Research on CBD for pets is still developing, and experiences can vary. At PETiva, we encourage pet parents to make informed choices with the support of their veterinarian.

3. How Much CBD Should I Give My Pet?

CBD serving sizes often depend on your pet’s weight, size, and product type. PETiva tinctures and treats include easy-to-follow serving guidelines to help you get started.

Most pet parents begin with a low serving size and adjust gradually. For personalized guidance, it’s always best to check with your veterinarian.

4. How Long Does It Take for CBD to Work?

Timing may vary depending on your pet, the type of product, and how it’s given. Some forms, like oils, may be absorbed more quickly, while treats take a bit longer since they’re digested first.

Every pet is unique, so observation and consistency are key.

5. Can My Pet Take Too Much CBD?

CBD is generally regarded as well-tolerated. However, giving more than the suggested serving size may cause mild side effects such as drowsiness or stomach upset.

To avoid this, always follow the instructions provided with PETiva products and adjust slowly as needed. If you’re concerned, reach out to your veterinarian for guidance.
