Hi all, my male year and a half old Abyssinian cat Neo (neutered) is around 14 lbs and has had a chronic cough for a little over half a year now. It sometimes improves, sometimes worsens. I follow Medical Medium the closest I can when it comes to diet and supplements because it is what I find the most trust in from experience, and I am open to your advice as well. He has been receiving Pet Wellbeing Lung Gold (7 drops twice daily) for 5 days now and has showed improvement but today has gotten bad again. I am aware it may take some more time I just don’t like sitting around waiting while he is suffering and looking for any additional help from you. I also give over 500mg of Vimergy Micro C. His BEAM is overall pretty good. He gets bursts of playful energy and sometimes it won’t trigger coughing, sometimes will on different days. He purrs a lot and we connect very well, have physical touch often and play hard when we can. He has been getting Feline Natural for months now, but I’m thinking about switching him back to raw grass fed beef and add egg free Alnutrin to meet his remaining nutritional needs. I give him freeze dried chicken hearts, wild blueberries, bananas, organic broccoli, organic celery. Medical Medium recommends these things and I know how amazing the healing properties are, so I give them to him and he does enjoy it. No vaccinations ever and never plan to. The only toxin exposure I think he’s really had is from clay litter which I switched off of in May, and now use Fukumaru tofu/applewood litter (thinking about switching to Smart Cat grass litter). I do have strep, EBV and possibly other viral load from the environment myself as I struggle with chronic symptoms as well. I try my very best to keep our environment germ-free (wash my hands and bedding, vacuum etc constantly), but we live together in a small space. He has never had any conventional medications, only remedies like Vimergy Propolis, Micro C, Zinc, B12 etc. I have a few homeopathic remedies on the way that I plan to give him completely separately (not even on same days) and in very small doses to see if they help. Boiron Pulsatilla, Phosphorus, and Carbo Vegetabalis that I read all are great for respiratory, spasms etc (his coughs seem spasmodic). I also have NHV Resp-Aid and Pet Wellbeing Respir-Gold on the way to try separately. He currently is having multiple coughing fits a day where he lays completely flat on the ground, neck always very extended and it is a wheezing sound, with a crackle at the end but not always. Exerting force during play or just in general seems to be a trigger but sometimes he can play full force and nothing happens. Just depends on the day. His breathing is noticeably heavier unless he is deeply rested. He does seem happy still overall, not completely miserable. The coughing fits do annoy him but he usually gets right back up and acts normal afterwards. I’ve always felt it was the litter that caused this but then I start to think it could maybe be viral. He does get a small amount of brown eye boogers and he itches himself on the neck occasionally but not often. I’m not sure what the underlying cause is and I’m hoping to find a solution because it is heartbreaking seeing him go thru it. He is the sweetest, funniest, best cat ever and I’ve had him since he was old enough to adopt. I have not taken him to the vet because I know they will just prescribe steroids, antibiotics, inhaler which I really don’t want to put him on but if it doesn’t get better within a few weeks I will take him at least for X-Ray. I do know about Dr. Silvia Do Valle holistic vet which I think was MM recommended in the past according to my sister, but I need to see if she is homeopathic as well. Any help is so very much appreciated, he really deserves for us to help him kick this thing for good. Thank you!!
