[Felvtalk] FW: Tanya's CRF Site

[GRAS]

I haven’t met a cat yet that doesn’t like Boston Market chicken – I used to trap cats with it, too. Mackerel is great too – the kind for people, not for cats.

Yes, for one of my kits, I spread a thin layer of baby food on top of healthier food---just enough to get the smeller going.   You can also crumble kibble on top of better food, or use other really smelly bribe foods as toppers, e.g., bonito flakes, tuna water, crushed dried tuna, nutritional yeast, etc.

YES, not good at all, especially for CRF patients, however, sometimes they won’t eat anything else, and something is better than nothing.  One of mine will not eat K-D canned food – so I mix it half/half with another food…better that, than losing weight and dying. Natalie

There are some who believe dry food causes CRF, so you may want to research more on this.   Try the Holisticat.com site and Googling for other folks.

Thanks, Natalie and all who responded. I've got Manny on prescription K/D dry food, baby food meats and lots of water dishes all over the house. He's probably close to 15 years old and has had CRF for several years. He's put on some weight recently and I'm hopeful he'll be around a few more years. Lots of love from this sweet, black cat!

I am dealing with CRF on a continuous basis, and treatment depends on the levels of creatinine, BUN, phosphorus, etc.

I use aluminum hydroxide, Pepcid AC, sub=q fluids, special diets, and whatever the vet tells me depending on test results.
