Pat, our Miss Boo Boo Kitty was about 12 when she developed kidney and passed on at 16. Presently, I have 3 kidney cats. Molly, at 13, has been gettting the fluids, three times a week, for about 2+ years. She was eating the k/d, then refused to eat it or any of the other kidney diets. She presently devours Friskies(I cringe every time I feed her)and some Royla Cannin Renal LP dry. Raven will be 11 in April and has been a kidney cat for almost 7 years. She eats the canned k/d and gets sq twice a week. And there is Nicholas, who will be 11 in July. No sub q, eats the k/d and the Royal Cannin Renal LP. I will have to agree with Catty1, if it was not for what you are doing for Priscilla, she would not have improved as well as she has!!! I know if Raven was not rescued from that horrible home, she would not be alive! We do the best we can do...and that is what you are doing!! Priscilla is just precious and such a flirt!!!
