Hi,
I wanted to suggest a treatment for allergies that is completely different then what has been suggested. And I want to suggest it to you because this vet and the treatments have been a god send to my cat. My cat has severe allergies which has caused him to get IBD and mild asthma. He recently had liver disease which was correlated with the IBD. The conventional vets never treated him for allergies. Oh wait sorry - yes he did....he had me feed him Medi-cal hypoallergenic for a long time (and his diarrhea always returned). And once his diarrhea returned he put him on Royal Canin Sensitivity. And of course the diarrhea returned over and over. They pumped him with medications for years but the diarrhea always returned. Finally after years of this type of treatment it spiraled out of control and he became very ill with IBD/liver disease. Instead of treating and riding him of his allergies the vet was just suppressing the symptoms. During this recent illness the vets wanted me to feed him perscription diets and keep him on steroids long term. I didn't like this game plan so I contacted a very highly recommended holistic/homeopathic vet that specializes in NAET and JMT for treating allergies in animals. We have been consulting long distance and I do the treatments at home under her guidance. During his illness we first started out by working on getting his health back and treating the liver disease. Once he rebounded from the liver disease we started to work on his immune system and eliminating these allergies from his body. I am very happy with the results. And can honestly say that I believe wholeheartedly in this treatment. Here is her website and an explaination regarding the immune system, NAET and JMT http://www.doctordeva.com/holistic_c...immune_disease and http://www.doctordeva.com/holistic_c...gy_elimination. There is also another very well known vet named Dr. Newkirk that performs NAET as well http://www.alternativevet.com/
This group here http://pets.groups.yahoo.com/group/WholeCatHealth/ has many threads on Dr. Khalsa and Dr. Newkirk and how they have helped their cats clear allergies that have persisted for years.
You may not go this route but I felt I should share my experience with you and anybody else that would be interested in learning more. I was hesitant at first on this type of treatment but now I am glad that I let my skepticism subside and go down this route.
You'd be surprised at what your kitty may be allergic to besides grains....
B vitamins seems to be a BIG allergen in cats (according to the general consensus on the group I posted about)....and surprisingly so has dust, pollen, grass, stuffing in furniture, etc. which I wouldn't have ever guessed my cat was allergic to. It has been a very enlightening experience for me
