Healing autoimmune diseases in cats is possible. However, it's not something you can treat yourself. That doesn't mean there isn't a lot you can do. If takes both you and an experienced natural therapist, such as a homeopath or homeopathic vet to achieve the desired results.

The conditions that are listed as autoimmune diseases in cats include skin allergies, diabetes, feline leukemia, FIP, FIV, FeLV, pemphigus, stomatitis, systemic lupus erythematosus, hemolyic anaemia, cancer.

These treatments involve suppressing the immune system. That has major unwanted effects. They include at least two major problems:

• it leaves the cat open to many other health conditions as the immune system is no longer able to put up a natural defence
• the drugs that suppress the immune system, such as the steroids, are harsh and have a deleterious effect on the organs. This reduces the life span.

In addition, this treatment does not address the cause. It's always the cause that should be investigated before any treatment is considered.

The natural world is perfect. Animals in the wild, in their natural environment, are healthy. It couldn't be otherwise. Had it not been, life would have died out long ago.

Certainly they have to find their food, their shelter and learn to avoid any predators or harmful animals and plants.

But that's all learned as they grow. It's an integral part of youth.

Our job, in our quest for causes, needs to examine what has caused a deviation from this perfect health.

Health is complicated. There are many reasons why someone is unhealthy, some major influences, some minor. However, they all add up.

Whilst everyone has the innate ability to heal themselves when they have a vibrant immune system, all these little, or large, influences chip away at it. That means that healing autoimmune diseases in cats may take time and dedication on your part.

With the unconditional love they give you, they are more than worth it.

Let's look at some of the more minor causes of autoimmune diseases in cats: 

• confined indoors, without the ability to freely express themselves, without the sun directly on their fur, lacking the ability to ground themselves on the earth
• sterilisation disrupts the endocrine system, with some more affected than others
• exposure to radiation from wi-fi, mobile phones and towers, computers, laptops, electricity, etc, again with some more affected than others
• exposure to chemicals in cleaning products and furnishings
• very often, they don't have free access to grass and/or herbs, which they use for medicinal purposes

The major causes, that deviate from the natural life of a healthy wild cat include:

• diet
• health care

Not only are these major causes of all and every health condition in cats (as well as in everyone else), you can do something about them, whereas you may not be able to do much about some of the aforementioned minor causes, such as free access outside. 

Commercial cat food is bankrupt in the nutrition department. The vast majority of it comes from the waste from the human food industry, or worse - rotting carcasses from various sources.

In addition, it is highly toxic, brimming with various chemicals to preserve, flavour, colour, stimulate appetite, address the nutritional shortfall,  etc.

You have complete control over what you feed your cat. Changing that to a more natural diet in keeping with their origins can have a major beneficial effect on their health. And often, quite quickly.

Current health care is less about health and more about managing dis-ease. And about lining some very expensive pockets.

The thing is, those annual injections you obediently subject your cat to, has the effect of muddling their immune system. It doesn't know how work naturally, anymore.

Healing autoimmune diseases in cats involves a two step process. You are the only one who can change the diet. Make that your top priority.

With that going on, and you may need help with that, find an experienced homeopath or homeopathic vet whose job it is to provide the necessary supportive health care.
