Animal Essentials’ Slippery Elm Herbal Tonic is a single-herb supplement that delivers comforting support to the gastrointestinal and mucosal systems of dogs and cats. Slippery elm bark, harvested from the inner bark of the Ulmus rubra tree, contains natural mucilage—plant compounds that form a gel-like substance when mixed with water. This mucilage acts as a protective barrier, coating the lining of the digestive tract and helping to calm GI discomfort.
Often used to support pets experiencing occasional diarrhea, sensitive stomachs, or constipation, slippery elm is also known for its soothing effect on other mucosal membranes in the body, including the throat, urinary tract, and respiratory system. This makes it a valuable tool for holistic wellness beyond digestion.
With its mild, naturally sweet flavor and gentle, alcohol-free formulation, this tonic is ideal for pets of all ages, including seniors and those with sensitive digestive systems. Whether used acutely for digestive upset or as a daily supplement for long-term gut health, Slippery Elm Herbal Tonic provides plant-based comfort you can trust.
Animal Essentials’ Slippery Elm Herbal Tonic is made using only certified organic inner bark from Ulmus rubra, carefully extracted in a glycerin base to preserve its natural mucilage content. We never use powdered, irradiated, or diluted material—only whole herb ingredients you can trust. Each batch is handcrafted in the USA with complete transparency and integrity. Free from alcohol, preservatives, fillers, and artificial ingredients, our formula delivers soothing digestive support that reflects our commitment to clean, honest herbal care for animals.

Slippery Elm seems to help my IBD kitty
My older kitty suffers from IBD and I’m trying to slowly taper down and wean him off of steroids after a year, and so far Slippery Elm seems to be just the thing to soothe his gut.

Slippery Elm for IBD
This tincture saved my cat's life. My 15 1/2 year old cat has a severe case of IBD. It's chronic and only can be managed. We've been battling it for the past year with different type of products. The IBD got to a point where my cat didn't want to eat at all. We were ready to let him go. He was lethargic and as a last attempt I called my homeopathic vet. She said try Slippery Elm. I ordered the single herb Slipery Elm and after a couple of days my cat started eating again. Now we're about 5 weeks in and he's eating full meals again and has gained almost a pound of weight back. My cat also has asthma and we're hoping that this product will also support him and ease the coughing.
