Hi Marcia,
I totaly agree with you, thanks for your response, my vet at the time [bearing in mind] he had no idea until I printed off & showed him the info, I was made to feel I had done something to my lovely boy, when he said his kidney's were unusualy small & I originally took him in as I noticed he was drinking & peeing lots, also when he was cuddled he cried, & off his food, they did blood tests & scared the life out of me, his urine showed blood & infection. (he is 16 months old),they gave him antibiotics, his infection is fine now, 2nd urine test showed clear. They wanted to put him under for the blood tests, & thought I was some sort of raving idiot, I was crying uncontrolable as they would not listen to me & to read up on the information, (the nurse had mislayed it, so no one knew anything about it), so I gave them another copy. They wished they had the info from the beginning, & they would have put him on a drip when he had his boy bits done, just as a precaution. Just had a call from the vets as I am typing this, his eurea has gone up slightly & his creatanine was normal but is now higher (think I have spelt all wrong but I think you get my meaning), they suggest a special food for cats with kidney problems, I have just asked which one & she seems a bit taken back I have asked, put phone down still none the wiser. [help]. I know some of these foods don't have lots of protein a cat needs, gosh I am at my wits end. regards julie
