Kidney centric diets and Raw food.. Quick read.

I found this ver informative.

Should I feed my cat with chronic kidney disease a raw diet?

Cift notes is cats with impaired kidney function cannot eat a high protein diet. It's not just the phosphorus levels but toxins created via the digestion of protein itself.

So when you get upset like I do when you have to do feed your cats commercial kidney-centric diet which contains lot of filler. There's a good reason why.

Hi
Is your cat late stage? It is now accepted that protein only becomes an issue in later stage kidney disease.

Have you looked at Weruva WX, (being aware of the calorie content)?

Have you looked at felinecrf.org ?

Neither of my cats have CKD but they are on a C/D diet because one apparently suffers from FLUTD.

Tanya's site is to some degree outdated with regards to food suggestions. Food companies change their formulation is all the time.

I used felinecrf along with several other cat food sites to drill down as much as possible and then contacted the manufacturers directly to obtain the information I needed when I had a cat who required low phos, and then low iodine.

You might have missed it above but have you looked into Weruva WX?
