Treating Addison's in Cats

Posted By Holly (Georgia) on 12/11/2020

"I have a Maine Coon mix who seems to get sick every few months. I read briefly about Addisons and heard that it can often mimic other illnesses like URI and similar. Does anyone have any experience or info on Addisons in cats? I prefer to treatment animals at home, if I can help it, because there is always pressure at the vet to vacvinate which I feel causes more problems."

"For the cat with suspected Addison’s, there are Non prescription herbal concoctions that help quite a bit, all you need to do is do a search for “ natural help for Addison’s in cats. Since the cause is usually a hormonal issue, do a search for raw glandular for Addison’s disease. You might also try vegetable sterols because it can be caused by auto immunity. I would limit using these to one at a time & giving at least 3 weeks to see if there’s any improvement. Anything mentioned in my posts on this thread is available without prescription online & in health food &/or fitness stores & can be carefully used while watching the animals closely for any adverse effects (there really shouldn’t be any, but caution is always advised)."
