In October, our cat (not sure of age; found her 7+ years ago, but don't know how old she was then) was diagnosed with irreversible kidney disease. We gave her antibiotics for an infection and put her on special food, and she seemed to be better. Last Friday (two days ago, now) she walked like she was drunk and couldn't lift her head. The vet did blood tests that showed she has very low potassium levels, which vet said can cause them to tuck their heads. Not sure what the other levels were in test results. Nobody in town has potassium supplements, so we started subcutaneous fluid treatments with potassium. She has had these daily treatments for two days now, but no improvement. To make matters worse, she is very lethargic and won't move, eat, drink, or use the litter box. I'm worried sick she is in pain or suffering or starving herself to death, and I don't know what to do. Please help!
