    My Puddy was in CRF for approximately 6 years or so. In the beginning, she was on subQ's every day, then every other day, etc. and she had only one kidney and did great for years. Luke is 15 and just now developing CRF, so I think that once you get the subQ's started, he'll do great, too. They may be dreaded, as you say, right now, but that will change. It'll become routine to you and Luke and you won't even think twice about it. It'll just be part of your day. And, believe it or not, Puddy liked the canned KD, even the dry, too, though not as much. We'll keep the prayers going for all our PT kitties and Luke is right there on the list. Keep the faythe.
    Blessings,
    Mary

    Update

    I sent Luke to the hospital for the weekend this morning.
    The fluids from yesterday didn't do a thing for him and he's not eating at all now. His vet said he may need fluids more often for a few days. I decided it would be best for him if he was there where someone who knew what they were doing could keep an eye on him.

    She said he won't be alone since they have other kitties there too. Plus she and her husband will be there even on Sunday because they are putting in more shelves and stuff. So, luke will have plenty of co.

    I can tell he is suffering so he needs to be there right now. I sure miss him though. He said tell everyone thanks for the prayers and positive thoughts and please keep them coming.
    I thank you too!
    No matter what anyone does, someone some where will be offended some how!!!!

    Healing thoughts for you and Luke. The right meds and diet can make all the difference and give him a good quality of life for some time to come.

    Keep the faith - Luke will be fine once he gets over the initial stages. Give that gorgeous boy lots of hugs and kisses for me

    Prayers for your sweet Luke that he will get over this rough patch and be back home feeling much better. And more prayers for him to be sharing many years to come with you.

    Update

    Just talked to the vet and she is puzzled! She checked luke's kidney functions again and, while they are elevated, they aren't really "that high".

    He still won't eat but is resting comfortably and is alert. She is wondering if he may be having a hair ball problem because there was quite a bit when he went to the bathroom. Thing is, if she treats that, he will probably get diarrhea again which started this entire thing.

    But I told her to do what she needs to do to get him eating. We can work on the diarrhea again later.

    He only needed fluids once over the weekend so that's good too.

    So we are still in a wait and see pattern. I'll check back with her tomorrow and let you all know.

    Again, thanks for the prayers and keep them coming. Luke says "thanks" for them too.
