Cats Can Get The Flu
Apparently a cat in Iowa came down with the H1N1 virus. In general, cats are not considered susceptible to human flu viruses, but this cat got H1N1 flu from his owners.
On Oct. 27, the cat became sick. The owners called friends who are veterinary researchers at Iowa State University in Ames. The researchers brought in the cat to be studied, and it tested positive for H1N1. It has since recovered and is back home.
For anyone who is concerned about their cat getting the flu, the best defense is a strong immune system. This has been seen time after time in clinical research, yet it is routinely ignored. Researchers will inject animals with a virus or some disease-causing substance, and some animals will get sick and some will stay healthy. The healthy animals are ignored, the sick ones will be studied to learn how various drugs or chemicals affect the illness and suppress symptoms. The drug industry is a billion dollar business. It’s simply not profitable to suggest maintaining a strong immune system to avoid illness.
There is a reason why there are untold trillions of bacteria and viruses everywhere: to keep the immune system working properly. Unfortunately, our cats and other pets, as well as us, have immune systems that are so overburdened from a toxic stew of synthetic chemicals in almost everything we touch, breathe, and eat that they no longer work so well. You can keep your cat’s immune system strong by feeding a wholesome diet of raw meats from grass-fed animals, supplying filtered water, and eliminating as much as possible synthetic chemicals in food and the environment.
How can you stay healthy? Get rid of the poisons! Instead of supporting pollution and disease, spend your money on safe organic foods, cleaners, cosmetics and other items. Eat a lot of RAW unprocessed foods. Get plenty of sunshine (or vitamin D if that’s not possible). Drink the purest water possible, filtered is good. Take a probiotic (there are probiotics for cats too), eat meat only from grass-fed, humanely-treated animals. Smile, laugh, love, stay positive, get enough sleep, have a pet (of course a cat is excellent…) and believe in your body’s ability to stay strong and healthy.
