Kidney Disase

[SANDY FROST]

Yuri went to the vets today. His weight down a little bit. But his blood test went well. Now instead of having IV'S twice a day. He now only gets it once a day.

Yeah Yuri!!! Sounds like you are making wonderful progress. I am so happy to hear the good news!! Keep up the good work!

My KatMa, Paw-Paw and I are focusing on you. We want you to have a speedy recovery and a very long life.

We are happy to read Yuri is home now. Re kidneys & cats, did you know that one treatment for cats with renal problems is administration of fluids under the skin by the cat's owner (subcutaneous fluid therapy). Sasha's veterinarian showed me how to do this with our beloved Tiggy [b. 17 August 1985 - d. 05 September 2000]. He needed lots of fluids late in his life and I learned how to do this. It helped him so much.

Hope Ming is feeling better; wishing all the best for Ming and Yuri.

Thankyou for your concern. Yuri's brother's name is Tigger. Yuri is pretty good with the IV'S.

I hope Yure is feeling better. I just found out that one of my cats, Spider (Age 13) has the very beginnings of CRF. His blood work is normal but the specific gravity of his urine is just a little low. I'm glad I found out about this early.

Yuri is feeling so much better like his old self. He is always eating
now. A friend's cat is doing so well that she is on IV once a week & she is 10 years old. Give Spider a big hug from Yuri 7 ME.

So pleased to hear Yuri is improving and eating so well, that's terrific news. Hugs from me and my two girls - Cleo goes for her bloods and dentistry next month. Last time she was in the upper end of the normal range so we'll see. Colette had her dentistry earlier this week, her bloods were fine, though she's only 61/2 so we would hope so. Cleo is 16 so ... we hope for the best. Good luck Yuri, continue to stay well and improving

Thanks so much for the hugs for Yuri. I 'll cross my fingers for your cats and hope they have a good check up and passed their test. As Yuri's vet said "Boy Yuri really studeyed for that last blood test." Hugs for Cleo &Colette.
