Cannabis

Since I had some 1:1 CBD/THC for myself, I massaged a drop on a little bald spot behind her ear. Ten minutes later, she was sprawled out, purring, and the most relaxed I've seen her in a long time; then she took a nice long nap. I was just experimenting to see if it would help her, which it obviously did, and she had no side effects.

Next, I bought the pet formulation of 20:1 CBD/THC, which is given by mouth. She hated it and getting it into her was a fight, so that bottle's going to a friend with an old, arthritic dog.

Next time I go to the dispensary, I'm buying the 20:1 formulation for people, which is a clear, concentrated oil, not milky and viscous like the pet formulation. Meanwhile, I'll continue to massage a drop of my 1:1 into her skin when she appears to be in pain.

The stuff works, but I'm not sure if it's the CBD, the THC, the combination, or the 1:1 strength that's doing it. The next experiment will be to see if the 20:1 works just as well.
