I'm so glad Lulu is eating. I'm sorry about the diagnosis, but CKD is not a a death sentence at all. Many of us have cared for kitties in kidney failure and they have lived excellent quality lives for a good long time. Putting some water in her wet food is very very good for her. You want to keep her on wet food, hydration is so important for CKD cats.
You'll most likely learn to do sub q fluids at home (it still infuriates me that the vet didn't even give her fluids yesterday), it is not hard to do once you get used to it, though it can be a bit stressful at first. The good news is you've got lots of support right here!
I'll be watching for updates.
