About Nurtured Pets

Who is Nurtured Pets®?

A company focused on health and wellness products for pets that has recently introduced the Anti-LickStrip pet bandage - the first product of its kind that's clinically proven to prevent pets from licking, biting and chewing associated with anxiety, boredom, abrasions, surgical stitches, insect bites and more. Nurtured Pets is part of Lauren International, a global, multi-divisional company serving a variety of industries and headquartered in New Philadelphia, Ohio.

How do Anti-LickStrip bandages work?

The outer surface of these innovative bandages is constructed from all-natural active ingredients such as cayenne pepper, lemon powder, clove oil and oregano - that effectively discourage unwanted licking, biting and chewing behaviors. Anti-LickStrip bandages are 100% safe despite their deterrent effect. On the back is a peel-and-stick adhesive designed to stay on fur or skin for days, even when wet.

What is their primary benefit?

By deterring the pet from licking, biting and chewing of itchy, painful, irritating problem spots, Anti-LickStrip pet bandages lessen the chance of infection, inflammation or reopened wounds, thereby promoting faster healing. They also help alleviate problems stemming from separation anxiety, boredom or other behavioral issues. These unique bandages have been proven effective in clinical studies, with a success rate as high as 90%.

How do they compare to cone collars?

Until now, the only practical way to prevent unwanted licking and biting was to provide the pet with a cone collar. As most pet parents will attest, watching their dog or cat trying to cope with that uncomfortable cone is difficult to bear.

What are the product varieties?

Anti-LickStrip Prevent® is available at hundreds of independent pet stores and chains from coast to coast. It is sold in packages of six (6) individually wrapped bandages per box, with six (6) individually wrapped alcohol prep pads and is available in S, M or L sizes. Two Packs are also available and sold in packages of two (2) individually wrapped bandages with two (2) individually wrapped alcohol prep pads and available in S, M or L sizes.

Anti-Lick Strip Pro® and Anti-Lick Strip Pro C® are sold exclusively for veterinary in-clinic use. Anti-Lick Strip Pro, which is supplied on 8' rolls, features a more aggressive medical-grade adhesive for use over veterinary wraps, gauze or casts. It should be noted that no Anti-Lick Strip product should ever be applied directly to open wounds or sores.

Suggested retail pricing for the Anti-LickStrip Prevent® ranges from $9.95 to $27.95. Anti-LickStrip Pro® and Anti-LickStrip Pro C® are sold exclusively to veterinarians. Anti-LickStrip products are manufactured entirely in the USA. For additional information, please call (877) PETS-771.
