Please do not fear the sub q's, if in time that is what needs to be done. I taught my husband how to do them!!! However, all the cats that Barry could do, have gone to the Bridge. The current ones, Norrton and Raven, are a bit difficult and he leaves them to me.

Regarding diet. I have come to the understanding, that if the cat refuses to eat the
" kidney " diet, then the diet does no good. Right now, I have one kidney cat on I/D(also have liver problems), and the other, absolutley REFUSES to eat the K/D, so is eating Pet Promise Chicken, and loving it!!! Our Molly Meu ate Friskies for years, before she decided to stop, and then ate Fancy Feast!!!

There is a nice site, Tanya's Feline CRF Information Centre. It is site that is run by a woman who has dealt with kidney disease in 2 of her cats. The section on nutrition is excellent!!!

GOOD LUCK, and prayers for your Ash....
