I understand every non-complete space can be made complete by including the limit points of convergence of Cauchy sequences. I assume that the opposite process is possible as well. But, do spaces where no convergent Cauchy sequence exists possible naturally without any such artificial construction?

If $x$ is a point in the space, then $x,x,x, dots$ is a Cauchy sequence which converges to $x$.
