Homeopathy Heals an Unusual Skin Disorder

Homeopaths are generally well trained in looking for causes of ill health. Causes tend to be whatever was happening in your life when the condition started. This is easy to see when an injury causes a wound. But it becomes more difficult to see when it’s an emotional cause, a medical cause or the problem started many years ago.

Vaccinations can be the cause of many health problems both immediately following the vaccine, and many years later. Fever is a common occurrence immediately following, but other deeper problems can show up years later.

In pets, the common site for a vaccine is at the shoulders. Year after year, the same site is used. Consideration to the repeated vaccines as the cause of tumours that can form at this site, should always be given.

But health problems aren’t always acquired. They can be inherited, too.

One of my cats, Lexy, recently had an unusual skin problem. A small skin eruption developed at her shoulders. This was obviously very itchy as she scratched it til it bled. Then continued to scratch it until she had made a small, raw area.

Initially, I just observed what was happening. However, as the condition deteriorated, I had to do something. Exactly what, I was unsure because this was only occurring in an isolated spot.

Although I did consider a vaccine as the cause, Lexy has never been vaccinated. I don’t vaccinate. I never have, even when I didn’t know what I know now. Somehow, something always help me back.

Had she been vaccinated before she came to me? She, and her litter mates, were left at a pet shop where I used to collect the numerous unwanted kittens and take them to a cat’s rescue home. Somehow, Lexy ended up at my home, rather than the cat’s home...

I know the pet shop in question did not vaccinate the pets they sold, let alone the pets they considered surplus to their needs. It’s so unlikely that someone will vaccinate kittens they dump at a pet shop, that I feel confident to say Lexy has never had a vaccine in her life.

I tried various homeopathic medicines that are good at resolving itchy skin eruptions. They helped initially, but then relapsed. And subsequent dosing didn’t have the same effect.

There was something I wasn’t getting.

So I went back to the vaccine theory. Perhaps she had inherited this problem from a vaccinated parent or ancestor?

I had to try this idea out.

I dosed her with the feline vaccine remedy. This is made from the vaccination itself. You can make a homeopathic remedy out of anything and making them from the drug that caused the problem, although not always necessary, can be very helpful.

It started to clear up. It healed up better than it had before.

She did need quite a few doses, but each one took the healing on to another stage.

Now it has almost completely healed. All that remains is for the fur to grow back.

Bearing in mind the origin of this medicine, it is unlikely that the cause of her health problem was anything other than a vaccine in her family history.

Cats Health - How to Improve it in Three Easy Steps

Your cats health may be in jeopardy. You may be blissfully unaware of the fact that you may be harming your cat and contributing to her ill health. But the fact remains, that you probably are.

You may be doing what you consider to be all the right things: you take her to the vet regularly, you buy the food s/he recommends, you keep fleas and worms under control by using the vets products, you vaccinate her every year. You spare no expense. Yet, still your cats health is not high.

Let’s look at each of these aspects one at a time.

  1. Diet - the daily consumption of processed food (which is full of chemicals, low quality meat and cheap filler) is nutrient poor. The packet may look wonderful. It’s the contents that count. Apart from the quality, it’s cooked. Wild cats evolved on a raw meat and bones diet. Cooking destroys enzymes and many other essential nutrients.
  2. Flea and worm control - cats are highly sensitive to chemicals. More so than we are. The chemicals in worm and flea preparations are guaranteed to cause health problems for your cat. The chemicals in their diet will contribute to this deleterious effect. Cats fed a totally raw diet have no worm problem and very few fleas.
  3. Vaccinations - natural health professionals the world over know the problems that are associated with vaccines. They do tremendous harm, partly because of the ingredients. Depending on the vaccine, these contain mercury, aluminium, formaldehyde, squalene and other noxious ingredients. If your cats immune system is in peak condition, that will protect her from disease.

At one time, I visited several catteries to ask if they insisted on vaccinations to board a cat. Most did, but I did discover one very friendly owner. She told me that she also accepted cats who had been treated with the homeoprophylaxis immunisation (immunisation by the use of homeopathic medicines - HP).

What she then went on to say may surprise you. She told me that those cats who had received the HP never gave her any cause for concern. But those who had been conventionally vaccinated often contracted the disease they were supposed to be protected against.

Which cat is healthier?
