Re: Re: KT for PETS--GRATITUDE

[Guest guest]

THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! You are all so AMAZING with the information

re: my kitty's eyes. My next trip to Whole Foods (I go every 2 weeks), I will

be picking up BOTH remedies mentioned. Pantera has been spending a lot of time

in the " kitty perch " pose in areas that keep her safe and out of the way as if

she were waiting for something instead of playing, jumping on her cat tree, and

sometimes, she just 'perches' at the edge of my bed with only her head over the

side.

This behavior only started when her eyes got fuzzy (the cataracts). Normally,

most times she is full of energy like a kitten. So, if--no, strike that--WHEN

she can see better, ie: cataracts dissolved, I'm expecting her to be her old

self again. By old I mean FORMER--I get that she's already old--but my mother's

cats didn't pass until they were 19 and 21 yr. old respectively. So I know

Pantera's got a lot of good years ahead of her. And when she can see perfectly

again, she can play her way through all those years of her life.

So, again, I thank you ALL for all the info. --XSAC

humans and dogs ... names and email addresses removed for privacy

Hi,

First, I send my thanks to B for this idea. I have a friend, a

fellow member of our church who is in his 70's and had restricted vision due to

cataracts. He is a vet and the folks managing his case would not allow surgery

because " it wasn't that bad yet " but it was sufficiently bad that he could only

drive in daylight hours.

Due to your suggestion, I bought a bottle of flax seed oil and took it to

him at his home a couple of years ago; asking him to put a drop in each eye

every day. He said that he had to do the treatment just prior to retiring in

the evening because the flax seed oil caused his vision to become a bit blurry

for a little while; but when he awoke his vision was as clear as before putting

the flax seed oil into his eyes. Within three months there was noticeable

improvement. Two years later, his cataracts (if there are any), are no longer

a problem.

Speaking of looking for solutions to various health issues (someone

mentioned this earlier), dear ones, I have found that searching the SilverList

archives always presents good ideas. Thank you Mike, and the folks who make

them available!!

Best regards,

M

Re: CS>Cataracts

Hiya B,

It's so amazing to me; while searching via search engines for alternative

methods of treating cataracts (specifically in dogs) I got absolutely nothing.

When I began taking my plight to various alternative lists, I found there are

treatments abound! And most are very simplistic.

If only there were enough hours in a day to create a website covering these

methods, with scientific and anecdotal evidence, for the others that are

searching...

My precious girl lost her other eye to glaucoma. I searched, begged and

pleaded for an alternative option, but general consensus was that there isn't

one, and we settled on eneucleation to eliminate the pain, and the need for

drugs. Between her diagnosis of glaucoma, and the removal of the eye, the

cataract in her *good* eye rendered her blind. She was pronounced a good

candidate for cataract surgery (at age 12!), but at $1000 it simply isn't a

possibility.

I so appreciate hearing these testimonies. They give me hope, and good ideas.

Thanks guys!

My dog was also one eyed, cataract covered her pupil. I bought regular

linseed oil a gallon at Home Base (a hardware store) in their paint section and

filled a 1 ounce bottle with an eye dropper. Every day she got one drop in her

eye for at least two months. Her eyelids became crusty and I just stopped

treating her. I was astonished to see the cataract shrank to a pin point and

after several more weeks totally was gone. After seeing this I also used

linseed oil (Flaxseed oil) in my eyes. DR said I had a bunch of small cataracts

growing in both eyes. I had a yearly check up about 5 weeks later and DR said

NO CATARACTS. Since then about 5 years ago the cataracts are coming back in my

eyes, I now make my own CS so I use CS + 10% DMSO in my eye wash cup, cataracts

are still there but not growing.

When I treated my dog I did not even refrigerate the linseed oil. I found

that it goes rancid later so when I treated myself I kept the bottle

refrigerated. I guess that our garage was cold enough when I treated my dog to

act like a refrigerator.
