I am sorry to hear of Filou's illness, but be assured that your tender care will give him added time to spend with you. Yes, learn to rehydrate him yourself--that way he won't have to go for rides in the car (icky!). Get a copy of the book "The New Natural Cat" by Anitra Frazier -- an excellent book about care-giving for sick cats. Both people and animals can live good, comfortable lives even if their kidneys are failing. It is not a painful condition (so I am told and believe), and your love and care will continue to make his life blessed, just as he has blessed your life.

I have only just now read the entire thread on Filou's kidney problems. Reading your first post touched an old pain of mine and it brought tears to my eyes. I know what it feels like - as I'm sure many pettalkers do, since kidney problems seem to be a common problem. It's no joke seing your beloved pet fighting and fading for any length of time. And Filou and Tigris were the first cats I really could remember here on PT, since Randi showed me some wonderful pictures of them long before I joined myself.
Nevertheless, the latest news seem very promising, and I really do hope things will work out for the better. I too shall look forward to more news - especially of your experiences with the homoepathic vet.
Best of luck - and lots of love,
Sus and bella

Can we have an uppydate on Filou please? Thanks. :)
-
Filou is well. He is having his appointment with the homeopathic vet next Thursday. My vet also thinks homeopathy could work well with a chronic disease like the CRF.
He is obviously in an early stage- being happy, crazy, chasing Tigris and the water in the bath tub. :)
I enjoy every second with him- and of course I will give yu a major update once we've seen this vet:)
-
So good to hear he's still doing well. :)
-
I am happy that HE is happy. I will be interested in what that homeopathic vet has to offer. :)
-
Good news Barbara. I'll be watching for the uppydate.
-
Barbara, I'm so glad Filou is happy and active, that's a good sign. :) I can picture him racing around. :D
