Thanks for your care and concern, Heidi!
Pookey has been on a special kidney diet (Science Diet KD) since Stanley started on it when they were both 14 and Stanley was given the diagnoisis of early kidney failure. The food helped maintain his kidney functon and steady numbers for two years until I lost him at age 16 of CRF and complications that came on pretty fast.
I kept Pookey on the special diet, which is one reason his kidney's have done so well as he turns 18. He's been on the special diet for four years now... I know the kidneys will be what gets him one day, but, I've had him on the special diet for four years now, which hopefully has helped extend his life. ----- Tammy and Pookey (Stanley 8/91 - 8/07)
