I have e-mailed you about our Ernie (1986-2003) and our experience with his kidney failure...

I am sorry to read this about Ripley

(((HUGS))))

You know that Filou was diagnosed with kidney failure a year ago. He's doing well with weekly sub-q fluids. At the moment there is no difference in behavior or whatever.

The diet food he likes best is Royal Canin Renal- the dry food. He didn't like the Hill's K/D

There is a very good website in which you can learn all about this condition:

http://www.felinecrf.org/

All the best for Ripley- the diet and the fluids will give him some more quality lifetime.

I found this wonderful website that is all about feline chronic renal failure and I think it is just excellent, full of imformation and help. I wish I had this site back when our RB Ernie had the condition. Hope it helps someone else

PS.. the URL is similar to the one Barbara posted, but is ".com" rather than ".org")
