What is renal insufficiency?

Renal insufficiency indicates a reduction in kidney function, meaning the kidneys cannot carry out their full range of responsibilities. The kidneys maintain fluid and electrolyte balance within the cat. Their primary roles include removing excess water, salts, and metabolic waste. Additionally, they assist in blood cell production and can impact blood pressure. Blood is filtered in the renal corpuscles, with toxins being expelled through the tubules into the urine. In cases of renal insufficiency, metabolic waste products are not adequately removed from the body. Substances that should be excreted through urine accumulate in the bloodstream. Therefore, it is crucial to provide appropriate dietary support and minimize additional stress on renal metabolism.

What should you do if your cat with renal insufficiency refuses to eat?

Cats suffering from kidney issues often experience nausea, making them hesitant to eat. It may take additional time to transition from regular food to Happy Cat Care Kidney Diet, ensuring the eating experience is as enjoyable as possible.

Here are some helpful tips for changing the diet and feeding cats with kidney disease:

• Select an appropriate bowl and feeding area (e.g., a wide, flat dish to keep whiskers free, in a quieter location)
• Serve the food at body temperature
• Identify and mitigate stressors and any changes
• Regularly clean your cat’s food bowl
• Check the storage conditions of the food
