    Diagnosed with kidney failure.

    aw, what happened to turn you away from dogs? Thank you for the great advice, I agree with your opinion about the chemicals, I have been told to feed her only renal labelled foods but I will check for the ingredients especially for corn and will try to find AminaVast and ask my vet about it. I...

    A hard lump on my cats skin after trying Sub-Q fluids

    Yes, I went to the vet on friday and they said the lump is an infection and gave me some antibiotic cream to apply.. they said her skin is very sensitive in general (by the way she had basal cell carcinoma before but got removed with clear margins and clean from it now) and her back skin got...

    Diagnosed with kidney failure.

    Yes after you told me I threw the whole serum and the set and everything away and got new ones today to avoid anything like that, I also bought a lot of needles so I never do something like that again... I will try to put warm compress and see what happens, today it seems like the lump got...

    Diagnosed with kidney failure.

    I tried moving sides each time to make sure I don't end up in the same place and only had to use the same needle once because I dropped the new one without the lid and I didn't have a spare one, could it be because of that???? OMG If so I won't forgive myself ever... and I don't know about the...

    Hi :) I called in a few places but they don't answer me properly unless I get an appointment and chip money unfortunately... Her vet said she will be available on Friday so I am not sure if I should wait or not at the moment

    A hard lump on my cats skin after trying Sub-Q fluids

    Hello, my 12 year old furrbaby was recently diagnosed with kidney disease ( I have previously posted about it ) and the vet told me to give her subcutaneous fluid everyday 50ml/day for 2 months to see if the values go down, however yesterday I have noticed there is a hard lump on her back (about...

    Diagnosed with kidney failure.

    First of all, I truly appreciate both of your tips and helps. You have really helped me, I noted them down and will apply them. The vet has shown me but I lacked the confidence to do it myself, I was scared I'd do something wrong and hurt her. I am going to take her again tomorrow ask to show...

    Diagnosed with kidney failure.

    Well, I tried to do that but I just couldn't insert the needle.. I wonder if I could give her fluids with an injector from the mouth and if that's going to be cruel? I don't want to put her in stress. I am glad your cat is keeping up well with the disease I hope he lives a long and healthiest...

    Diagnosed with kidney failure.

    Yes I think you are right about the values, I have read that everywhere online but my vet says different, that the CKD triggered the UTI but I don't know, what you said sounds more convincing to me... I spoke to the vet again today, they recommended me some paste called "renal advance" I spent...

    Diagnosed with kidney failure.

    Well, the only sign my cat was showing was peeing outside the litter box once and looking unhealthy to me.. I kinda felt she's not well but other than that her appetite is okay, I will also take her to retest to check if the UTI is gone and then check the blood values again for sure She doesn't...

She's given 50 ml/day of lactate ringers.. vet also said it looks like chronic but there is a slight...
