This week was meant to be all about winter digestion - but sometimes life steps in.
On Monday, we lost our beloved Connemara, Murphy - the heart of EquiNatural, and my world for the past 24 years - after a sudden colic. Bright and cheeky on Sunday; peaceful and still by Monday morning. He reached 31 incredible years, and what a gift every one of those years was.
So this week, in Murfโs honour, weโre changing course. Instead of the planned Winter Digestion feature, weโre bringing our Winter Seniorsโ feature forward - for the wise, gentle souls whoโve carried us through decades of joy, and who may need a little extra support as the cold settles in.

Whether theyโre 15 or 30, no two horses age in the same way. No question though - ageing brings change; slower digestion, less muscle tone, dental wear, shifts in immunity - but with thoughtful, whole-horse care, our golden oldies can thrive through every season.
But - caring for an older horse isn't about extra calories or relying on quick fixes. Itโs about nourishing the whole system - feeding the gut to fuel warmth, supporting circulation and muscle tone, protecting the immune system, and nurturing calm, steady energy from within.

With the right nutrition, warmth, movement, and a ton of TLC, our seniors can stay vibrant far beyond what we imagine. After all - the oldest Connemara on record lived to 56 - now thatโs something to celebrate! ๐
Hereโs to them - our greatest teachers, and our everyday joy.
With love,
Carol & The EquiNatural Team
