"I do foster care for our local humane society.The cat's are always sick and alot die. Right now I have a kitty with herpes of the eyes and was wondering how to get rid of it naturally. The drugs they get from a vet are not working. I started to use borac acid but that doesn't seem to be doing much either. Please if anyone has an idea please let me know. Thank you."

"Replying to Lynda regarding the eye problems, apparently the amino acid L Lysene is very effective, which is the same used for human cold sore outbreaks. I have used this with much success, also a little ascorbic acid or bio c powder for the immune system. The info on L Lysene is can be confirmed on a site called www.vetinfo4cats.com which I have found extremely useful."

"L-lysine is the best short term treatment for feline herpes. You want to give about 250 mg twice daily. It is tasteless and colorless(I have a very picky tortie!) so it is easy to mix in wet food when crushed into powder. L-Lysine is VERY inexpensive, so it is a must have at any cat shelter, or for anyone with a kitty with chronic herpes flare-ups. Meds rarely do anything but relieve you of your money when it comes to herpes. I'm lucky to have found a vet with knowledge of lysine. My tortie has major eye tissue scars from weeks of antibiotics having no effect on the disease.
Also, Colloidal silver is completely non-toxic to humans and cats(and everything else that isn't a microbe). I've done much reading on CS lately because I had a duck with a fungal respiratory disease. What I found was multiple forums with people who had cured their HUMAN genital herpes with CS. You can use the silver as eye-drops, with great success, for any apparent eye disease. Herpes recedes into other part of the body, when it goes into remission, and hides until the next flare up. Keeping silver levels in the cat's tissue at a constant rate may cure the disease altogether (my tortie has had no flare up since completing this l-lysine/colloidalsilver treatment, however some cats NEVER manifest symptoms of their herpes, others not more than once, and some have chronic problems, so it is hard to tell if it's actually been cured or just put into permanent remission). I recommend 1/8-1/4 teaspoon (depending on the size of cat) 3-4 times daily (depending on how sick) for a few months (3-5 months to be safe). Use the lysine treatment when there are apparent flare-ups. CS is best absorbed and most effective when taken on an empty stomach. Thats hard to do with a cat, so just don't mix it in with food. Use a syringe and squirt it right in their mouth. If your cat doesn't take meds well, or squirms too much, try using a towel to wrap them in (making sure to pin the front legs with the towel), like a little kitty burrito.

P.S. colloidal silver hydro-sols at around 10ppm have the best absorption, and are the most effective at moving through tissue. Although any silver colloid will be (at least marginally) effective. These are tiny animals, so you must make sure the only ingredients in the one you buy is silver and water. NOTHING ELSE!

Good luck everyone!"

"I have a 5-1/2 year-old male feral that developed herpes in his eye when he was 1. I sprinkle L-Lysine on his dry food everyday, which has seemed to help the flare-ups. He doesn't really seem to be bothered with the condition most of the time. His eyeball, however, has what appear to be growths on it and it is very cloudy. When this first occured, I took him to veterinary opthamalgists and spent incredible amounts of money on him, only for them to tell me that this is a chronic condition and there was really nothing that could be done. They gave me a prescription for ethromycin for the flare-ups. I am reading all these posts and beginning to think that I might possibly be able to help my feline buddy. If there is anyone out there that is dealing with - or has dealt with this and can give me some pointers, I would be most appreciative!"

"One of the cats I used to have always had a runny eye.The vet said it was a blocked tear duct.One weekend when the town vet wasn’t available, she ended up with her eye swollen shut and very swollen.We were going to take her to the vet the following Monday.

I googled it and found out it was a reoccurring herpes virus probably passed on to her from her mother.The EarthClinic sight suggested ACV diluted with water in a 1:3 solution.Dip a cotton ball and squeeze the mixture onto the scruff of the neck between the shoulder blades until the area is wet but not dripping.Then I also gently wiped her closed eye with it.

Not only was she completely cured in a few days, the virus never bothered her again."

"Hello and I'm sorry you're having problems with your cats.

Try using colloidal silver 20ppm ointment its a strong antiviral and colloidal silver orally with a 3cc syringe. Its tastless so they won't be too bothered by swallowing it. You can also try using chlorine dioxide eye drops and or orally as well. Of course you'd have to know how to make the solution before administering. I've included two images of books on the subject and recommend watching a documentary: www.universalantidote.com. You can buy the solution at kvlab.com. The set of two 4 fl oz bottles cost around 30 dollars but considering you only use one to one ratio drops mixed in distilled water makes it SUPER cost effective (in the long run way more than the colloidal silver but you will have to research it yourself) as it will last you around 3 or more months. I use it regularly myself as a Covid prophylaxis but it has many uses as you will discover once you watch the movie. Feel free to email me if you have any questions. For the eyes it's one drop of sodium chlorite and one drop of hydrochloric acid in a glass container. Let it activate for 30 seconds then add the DISTILLED WATER enough for one fluid ounce, no fountain water the fluoride will deactivate the solution. I saved some of my bottles of 1 fl oz. Of vitamin B drops and washed them out and rinsed them once I was done. And put the solution in there and gave it to my cats. Test it on yourself first if it burns its to strong but mine didn't so yours shouldn't either. I made another one for their ears as well. Make sure you use glass containers and glass droppers. NEVER use metal as this will corrode over time and be added to the solution which isn't good. I tried adding the image of the books if you don't get them they are: Forbidden Health Incurable Was Yesterday by Andreas Ludwig Kalcker(this is the one I reccomend as it has A-Z treatments and the protocols AND MMS Health Recovery Guidbook by Jim Humble with Cari Lloyd. Sorry this was kind of long but I hope this fixes your problems."

"I've had success with L-Lysine. It's an amino acid helpful in treatment of viral infections. I had a cat with a viral growth on one cornea and lysine helped it clear up permanently when nothing else helped. Also colloidal silver is tasteless and can be added to food or water."

"I use Colloid Silver in a dropper for my cat with herpes in his eyes & it works a treat. It does not sting etc. It really is brilliant for keeping it at bay, as you know there isnt a cure, it lays dormant in body till something flares it up which can be stress, heatwave, strong sunshine & damp"
