I've lost two cats to CKD. It's a long, slow illness but they do so well for such a long time. Expensive, but they're my bebbies.
Yup he gets a morning and an evening shot. When I was drinking he suffered cuz I would always be to drunk to give him the second shot of the day. I felt horrible. But now he is regulated well and doing quite good for 16 and having CKD for this long.
I also happen to be in the know of a new test that has been release in the last two months that can detect CKD in cats and dogs much much earlier. This allows for better long term treatments. It's a new frotocimine (spelling) test. Unfortunately it cannot help Henry but it will certainly help many out there.
