Funny thing is your post about your cat really hit home for me. Our cat Sally passed away last Friday after 19 years of bringing a ton of smiles to us and not asking for much in return. Over a year ago she was diagnosed with CRF better known as Chronic Renal Failure and with no cure. The only way to help her kidneys out was to give her subcutaneous injections under her skin everyday. One bag of saline solution per week, IV line, and a new needle everyday-this was my introduction to becoming a vet, or at least pretending I was! This would help flush out the toxins in her kidneys and yes prolong her life. It's equivalent to dialysis for humans but not quite as complicated. To not drag this out my vet told me Sally would probably live 3 months with our help-she lived 15 months and I finally had to put here down because her kidneys were no longer responding to the treatments. Sally will be missed by the entire family-heck she almost made it through 3 generations of dogs! Great blog by the way, but your cat took center stage-as they always do!Dick Berryhttp://dickberryphotography.comnoreply@blogger.com
