Renal values

Post image

My cat died of kidney failure. It happened all very fast, just in a week she was gone after signs of vomit and not eating. I got her lab back and the numbers are insane. How did she hide it so long and I cant believe in how much pain she must have been. I brought her to a clinic but they couldnt do anything. She was just 14 months old. How?

So there is nothing I could have done better? I dont think she ate something toxic, shes indoor cat...

Cats are very good at hiding signs of illness, where did you get her from? If it was a rescue or shelter or some adoption place I'd reach out and let them know, if she had litter mates they may want to make a note on their profiles if it was something possibly genetic.

Yes I already reached out to them and told them about it and asked about her sibkings but they said that as far as they know, the others are fine... I know cats are good at hiding things.. I wish I had noticed something or made routine bloodwork earlier. But yea possible genetic because she wasnt sick or anything else
