Yes the pyelonephritis was still being considered up until last week but the fact that the kidneys have not reduced in size and don't appear to be sensitive to the touch make that possibility unlikely.

He is on Diazepam which is supposed to help with the nausea and the appetite. As I mentioned in the response to the person you quoted enlarged kidneys with no pain to the touch after 6 weeks of antibiotics strongly suggests lymphoma.

No he has not vomited in a few weeks now so I guess that's pretty good! I am trying different techniques and have had some success in getting him to eat since we started the sub-q. I will definitely try smaller portions throughout the day though thank you!

There isn't much it can be other than that at this point. He came in to the vet severely dehydrated and having lost another 1 1/2 pounds since our last visit and his kidneys are still very enlarged. The other possibility would have been pyelonephritis but after 14 days of Amoxcilin and 30...

This will probably be my final post but I wanted to thank the people here for helping me out and give a final update. The vet is now certain that he does have renal lymphoma and he has lost another 1 1/2 pounds since his last visit. The vet game me subcutaneous fluids and appetite stimulants...

Update : So Kovi's symptoms pretty much stopped last week. No more excessive thirst and urinating and no more peeing blood or outside the litter. The problem is now that he has even less of an appetite than when there were symptoms. I've pretty much tried everything from the Kidney care...

So after almost 3 days of no blood in his urine I woke up to my cat meowing and leaving bloody urine spots all over the bathroom. After cleaning up I couldn'T go back to sleep so I started reading any more info that I could find. I stumbled upon a website with renal lymphoma case studies and at...

Little update : Like I mentioned he seemed to be having a bit of a reduced appetite lately which had me worried that his situation was worsening. It turns out I think he just doesn't like the Hills Kidney care because I tried mixing in some flaked tuna in water with the food and he absolutely...

Thanks for answering! Yes he is on Hill's kidney care canned but for the past 2-3 days I've had a harder time getting him to eat it. Upon further reading I've also come to the conclusion that it's either kidney cancer or a pretty nasty infection. One thing I should add is that a month...

Thanks for this, from what I read I don't feel like his kidneys are that large upon touching them but I am not a vet whatsoever so who knows.

I didn't have any luck posting in the CKD support group... does anyone else have any experience they can share with me?

Hi! Thanks for answering. We changed his food around a lot right before this happened because he was really picky and started vomiting up his food. We switched to cheap store brand cans because he seemed to like it and stopped throwing up. It was about 2 weeks after switching to this...

Hi everyone, I signed up to these forums after reading how knowledgeable and helpful many of you were in other threads. My 11 year old cat has been urinating blood on and off for 2 weeks now and I'm at a loss with what very little information can be found online. We went to a first vet who...
