I watched a you tube video about a cat with bladder cancer who took a 2:1 ratio of CBD to THC and it cured his cancer. I am thinking of doing that, since the CBD derived from hemp doesn't have the same medicinal effects as that derived from flower, which also contains other cannabinoids.

I really am at my wits' end. My cat is 15 1/2 years old and he is very dear to me, but his chemo treatments are very expensive, and he is not cured yet. I am scared to experiment on my own, since I know that you have to be very careful with THC and small animals. What I find absurd is that while cannabis is legal in my state for both medicinal and recreational use, it is not legal for veterinarians to prescribe it, or even to recommend it. This apparently is the case in many other states, too.
