Hi!
At Enzo’s most recent wellness check his labs were:
BUN 30
Creatine 2.4
These are both very slightly elevated from his labs from one year ago (25/1.7 respectivel) I really love my vet, and she knows how invested I am with his health/diet. So I usually trust her, but she told me that everything looked “great” and that if she didn’t know his age (14) she’d guess he was a much younger cat. Which I felt super happy about! But when I googled normal cat lab results it looks like the creatine is at the high end of normal, which, according to the sites I read indicates mild renal failure in older cats. Can anyone offer some help? I find it hard to believe she wouldn’t have mentioned this to me given our history, and the phone call we had was fairly lengthy. But now I’m concerned.
