    My cat has kidney disease, but I don't understand what to expect...

    My cat has kidney disease, but I don't understand what to expect...

    Oh, and food wise, I was offered the wet version of the renal food but it was twice the cost of the dry food and I simply cannot afford about $100 per month in food for one cat.

    My cat has kidney disease, but I don't understand what to expect...

    Hi all, I am new to this site, so apologies if this is in the wrong place, or is simply duplicating existing posts. My beautiful boy cat Leroy was diagnosed with signs of kidney disease a couple of weeks ago, but I'm not sure what this means. I have read everything there is to read about...
