Okay, I've come to this forum from time to time, but never posted anything...
But yesterday my 9 month old kitten had to have surgery, and during surgery they discovered that she only has 1 kidney! I was wondering if this has happened to anyone else or if anyone has any diet/nutrition recommendations for me.
The only information I have really gotten is to make sure she gets an adequate supply of probiotics to keep her intestines healthy so she can eliminate waste efficiently, but I was wondering if there is anything else I should add to her diet to keep her kidney working the best it can! I haven't gotten to talk to my vet about it yet and hopefully she will have some info for me, but I am trying to cover all my bases.
Anything helps and I definately appreciate it! This baby (Isobel) we got right after we had to put one down who had an inoperable heart condition, and its very important for me to keep her in the best health possible.
