1. I had two dogs who had kidney problems.

Both lived several years with the disease. The key was to keep them on the special low protein diet which is easier on their kidneys. Toward the end of my Maggie's life (she had congestive heart failure as well as kidney failure), I gave her subcutaneous fluid to help flush out her kidneys. I wish you and your kitty the best.
