CBD for pets

The law and the evidence for dogs and cats.

4 guides

  • CBD for pets in Australia

    No CBD product is registered for animals in Australia. A vet may prescribe CBD-only products in limited cases, and the evidence in dogs and cats is thin.

  • CBD for dogs

    Small trials of CBD in dogs show mixed results for arthritis pain and some reduction in seizures as an add-on. In Australia it needs a vet's prescription.

  • CBD for cats

    There is not enough evidence to say CBD helps cats with any condition. Cats absorb CBD differently from dogs, and in Australia it needs a vet's prescription.

  • Pet safety

    THC is toxic to dogs and can harm other animals. Never give a pet human cannabis products. Signs of poisoning, CBD side effects in pets and who to call.
