This stuff is loved by her. It must taste great because she gobbles it up at meal time. I actually just like the big can too, each morning because I can split the servings and present her a third, at night and the others. It is stinky, for certain, but it’s a little price to cover her health.
We’ve also purchased the dry food for the rare occasion where we’re away for the night time so she’s something that’s still safe to consume but won’t spoil. We love Hill’s and so are so thankful for the positive effect her nutrition has already established on her behalf prognosis. Something went wrong. try again later Please. As I feed raw normally, I purchased the raw prescription food I have always interspersed some high quality canned cat food together with the raw diet to give my cats some variety.
So, I made a decision to try the kidney support canned food in fact it is a huge success. My girl, who needs the kidney support food, loves it – the only problem is keeping my boys from the prescription food – they would like to eat it too!
In conditions of effectiveness in supporting the kidneys, I cannot yet evaluate this by. I shall need to revisit the vet, see her creatinine values and there go from. But I am happy for the present time that I’ve My vet informed me that my girl ought to be eating kidney support food. But I am happy for the present time a prescription has been found by me food that’s well received. I mixed the pate with the stew until it had been gone just. I only order the stew Now. Over a year He has been upon this food for. His numbers have not gotten worse His Dr.
Senior Cat 18 yrs old 0 You liked it! Report Dented cans By Jfratta1 on Mar 20, I have no idea the proceedings but yet again all the cans are dented up in this order. It has happened multiple times and is now a trend for chewy. This is annoying really! Put the box in my own driveway not by my entry way too, this is heavy! What’s the idea of delivery easily need to go get help carry this into my home?
That is unacceptable. Report I am certain it is best for my cats, by Mommy on Feb 13 however, It is hated by them.
touch itWon’t. I had purchased the chicken with veggies one previously per recommendation from my vet for failing kidney’s, that they also won’t eat due to the chunk’s and carrots. I didn’t recognize that when I purchased it. Also, that cans are huge, double the size I expected. Hopefully I could contribute to a rescue where in fact the cats will love it. Report Both cats like! By JenPo on Apr 3, I was looking for a kidney care brand that both of my cats liked. With another brand, a few of it was likely to waste because only 1 cat would eat it.
Now I’ll have less waste since both kitties gobble this up.
Good boy Thunder. So many variety of healthy dishes just for you πΎπΎπΎ
Thanks!
oh yeah i know this food; Yoshi will eat it in the first day only a bit and leave the rest ; Second day its trash. I m glad to see that Thunder is eating; Good luck to you Thunder. Ask your Vet about Semintra for kidney issues. Yoshi is on the line not yet there; but the vet wants him to have it.
Thanks! I just sent a message to my vet asking about Semintra.
any updates?
also, would your cats really eat an entire 2.9 oz can at once? It just seems like so much compared to what my cat normally eats
Each of my cats only get two 3 ounce cans a day, not four. One can in the morning and one can in the evening. I hope everything goes well for you and your cat.
β@Jericho & Thunder The 2 Gray Cats thanks for the response, I just got back with my cat yesterday (stage 2 diagnosis) so I am trying to learn all I can. Im thinking we will try a one can at morning, one at night and dry food during the day approach. Im just trying to understand how to best feed her so that she will actually take in what she needs. I just cannot fathom her eating 4 entire cans of food a day, it just seems like so much.
Her BUN was 41 and Creatine 3.1, so we are just pretty afraid of what her future is, so I appreciate seing your content.
Thunder is doing well, thank you so much for asking. Yes, 3 ounces of wet cat food is considered the proper serving for one meal. They usually eat it all at once. Most canned cat foods contain a lot of moisture, which is why 3 ounces its not too large of a portion. That much in dry kibble would be way too much for a single serving.
Love your cats
Thank you so very much!
Great video! So glad Thunder likes the new food. Im so sorry to hear about his kidney problems. I just found out something is wrong with my kidneys too. Lots of love and kitty kisses!! ππΎππΎπ
Its good that you found out.
Jericho & Thunder The 2 Gray Cats
Thank you. Yes, Ive been really sick the past 2 years. Found out last week about my kidneys.
Oh, Im so sorry to hear that you are having problems with your kidneys. I pray that you get better soon!
Vielen lieben Dank fΓΌr deine RΓΌckantwort. Ich gehe heute zum Tierarzt und werde mich informieren. Mein kleiner Junge ist doch schon 17 Jahre und ich bin sehr traurig wegen seiner Erkrankung. Meine anderen beiden Fellnasen sind gesund. Mit der FΓΌtterung wird es wahrscheinlich etwas schwierig werden. Ich hoffe mein Kleiner frisst dann auch dieses Futter und hoffe, dass es ihm wieder besser geht. π’ππβΊ Liebe GrΓΌΓe Norina und ihre 3 Fellnasen
Ich hoffe alles geht gut!
I hope this will help. As I told you I had also once a cat with kidney failure, but with good food she reached an age of 16! all the best, Gigi
Thank you for the encouragement. βΊοΈ
Hallo Katzenmutti, meine Frage mein Katerchen (17 Jahre) hat es leider jetzt auch mit den Nieren, wie dein kleiner Thunder. Welches Futter bekommt der Kleine jetzt? Ist das nur welches von Tierarzt? Frisst das Futter dann auch Jericho? Ich habe richtige Angst um den Kleinen. Ich hoffe doch, dass man das mit dem DiΓ€tfutter in den Griff bekommt. Ich hoffe, dass du mir helfen und mir einen Rat geben kannst. Liebe GrΓΌΓe Norina und ihre 3 Fellnasen
Ich fΓΌttere Thunder immer noch mit dem Essen, das der Tierarzt fΓΌr seine Nieren empfohlen hat, und er hat es mit seiner neuen DiΓ€t besser gemacht. Jericho isst immer noch ihr normales Essen. Beiden Katzen scheint es gerade gut zu gehen. Es ist immer gut, mit Ihrem Tierarzt ΓΌber Empfehlungen zum Essen zu sprechen, wenn Ihre Katze Nierenprobleme hat. Danke fΓΌrs Zuschauen, lieber Freund!
also pet wellbeing kidney support gold is very good. My cat Frack was taking it and she improved wuite a bit. Her weight went up and het appetite improved.
Jericho & Thunder The 2 Gray Cats your very welcome
Thank you so much! Yes, I do plan to add some supplements to help his kidneys also. Thanks for the suggestion on a good product.
Thank God he likes it!! Youβre way ahead of the game with this great RX food! π
Thank you so very much! Yes, Im so glad that he likes it too!
Looks like a yummy new food for Thunder and he likes it as well! Thats great! πΊβ€
Thank you so much!
How is Thunder doing phisically on his new diet dos he seam to be eny diferent from befor?
Arr well there is time yet we will ceap ower fingers crosst for him let us no if you do.
Thanks for asking. Ive not noticed any difference yet, but its only been about a week and a half.
Im glad that Thunder at least really likes some of the food that he now has to eat regularly. *^_^* I read in one of the comments that you are still having trouble keeping them from each others food, and Im sorry to hear that. I can imagine how hard that must be to do, my 2 cats like to eat from each others bowl too. I have my thoughts and prayers for you all, and I hope that it will get easier to keep them with their own foods. *^_^* It is cute to watch Thunder enjoy the stews. ^_^
Youre very welcome!! And Thank You very much!! I decided to change it to a brighter view of my sweet kitties looking out the window. *^_^*
Thank you so much! By the way, I love your profile picture.

β β β β β OUTSTANDING β β β β β FANTASTIC β β β β β EXCEPTIONAL β β β β β great job Thunder your a really good boy to eat your diet foods with no complaints my Stimpy did not like these kidney foods at all but did eat them slowly i am glad to see you enjoying your foods sweet boy x o hugs still in our prayers
Thank you so much!
Im so glad that Thunder likes his new food. I wish there was a way that his illness could be reversed. I feel so bad for him and u as well. I pray u get keep him for a long time. Hugs and love to u and both of ur fur babies. Im trying to get rid of an upper respiratory infection and sore throat. Have a great night/week! βΊοΈπππΎπππ
Jericho & Thunder The 2 Gray Cats Ur welcome and thank u as well! βΊοΈπ
Thank you so much! I hope you will be feeling better soon!
I am really happy that he is eating the new food but I cant help but be sad they have so few options for him to try. I hope you are having an easier time with Jericho and Thunder during feeding time bc I know there was difficulties at the beginning.
Thank you so much! I am still having difficulty during feeding time, but it is slowly improving. I am looking forward to receiving the special microchip bowl, and getting Thunder trained to use it. What this video doesnt show is the many attempts by Jericho to get to his food bowl and me holding her back. I was literally holding her back with one hand and holding the camera with the other hand during the scenes of Thunder eating. Jericho thinks everything is for her.
I think a typical pate is less watery and has more consistency. I didnt see this video before and a few minutes ago I just threw out about an quarter of a can thinking it was too watery and spoiled by being delivered in 90 degree heat. Does the tuna pate really have the consistency of oatmeal? Is there a sort of :gamey smell to it? Whats the date of the food you have currently? My cans have an expiration date of May, 2020. Does this photo look similar to your k/d tuna pate? Note that I didnt add any water Double click to enlarge the photo:
Did you convert Thunder over to the k/d diet slowly by doing the 25% system every 2 days (1/4 k/d first 2 days and 3/4 old canned food. Then 50% k/d next 2 days, etc.)? I have to be careful and watch my cat closely the first two weeks because she had an allergy to poultry and all shes eaten is Natures Variety Instinct canned rabbit for the last 15 years. Unfortunately, all the k/d diets contain chicken or another form of poultry. Even the tuna pate has chicken as an ingredient before tuna, and after tuna in the list theres chicken fat and chicken liver.
The pate does not have an oatmeal texture. It looks nothing like the pictures that you had in the link. It is fairly solid, and what is seen in my video thumbnail is after I added water to it. The pate stank. Thunder eats the stew version exclusively now. Not only do they have chicken in the tuna, but they also have pork in both flavors. I didnt phase it in for Thunder, I switched him over completely. I am sorry that you had a negative experience.
Would it be harmful for Jericho to eat it too?
Thank God thereβs products like this available.
Thanks for sharing such an informative video!
From what I understand, the problem with the k/d diets for healthy cats is that its protein content is too low.. Some feel it may even be too low for even cats with kidney problems.
It wouldnt be harmful to her in the short run, but its not what is best for Jericho.
Please watch our detailed video comparing Blue Natural Veterinary Diet with Hills Prescription Diet here:
I am sad to hear of the diagnosis. My George (who looked like Thunder) had kidney failure as well. I gave him subcutaneous fluids for the last six months of his life. Now his brother is in stage two with his kidneys. You are a good cat Mom.
Thank you for sharing your story. I hope all goes well with your cat that is in stage 2.
How is it going keeping Jericho away from his food? It looks like he is eating alone? He seems to like this food. π
Jericho & Thunder The 2 Gray Cats Aww π
It isnt going well keeping Jericho away from Thunders food, and he still wants her food.
Im sorry to hear of the kidney diagnosis. π I think he might go more than 3 or 4 years though, I hope. I think my cat did well on it for more than 5 or 6 years and then died of something unrelated. Prayers and love to you all!
My vet said the kidney diet wouldnt hurt my other cat if he eats it? I dont have cats anymore, but if thats true it might make it easier for you. My kidney patient made it to 20 years old and the other one 16+ (he was a rescue –we dont know his exact age. π
Me praying hard: :/< Love to you all!
Thank you so very much! Yes, I hope that Thunder will beat the odds and live much longer than the vet anticipates. I sure appreciate your prayers.
So sad to hear this about Thunder. I hope the new food helps him live a long and happy life. You are already in heaven Thunder!
Thank you so very much for your kind words.
It made me so happy to see Thunder eating the new food! ππ
Thanks! Me too!
We hope the special diet helps Thunder.
Thanks so much!
Thanks for this link didnβt realized you had one on renal can foods. Glad I watched bcz didnβt realized the 5.5 oz cans were pates. My Leo hates the texture. Darn guess I have to try the stews w the veggie mix. Howβd you get Thunder to start eating it? Did you do any recent bloods to see if the foods are working? Iβm also curious why you still giving Thunder dry if heβs predominantly on wet food. I would personally avoid it since dry food is the prime problem. I have no choice to feed it to my Leo since he hates wet food. I literally have to bring heβs bowl to him to eat the wet. The Rx can is going to be a real challenge for me. he already refused the renal dry by RC which I donβt mind bcz of all the cheap crap meal & gluten fillers. Thunder still eats like a champ. Ur very fortunate. This video was super helpful thx u.
Great to hear the news about Thunders lab work. I just opened my first can of Hills K/D Tuna Pate and I have to ask what texture?! It has the consistency of oatmeal or porridge. Heres a comparison of it next to her usual food which is Natures Variety Instinct canned rabbit:
I just gave her about 2 teaspoons this morning of the k/d with her NV Instinct rabbit. She cleaned the plate. Im going to transition her slowly and hope she doesnt show any signs of allergy to the chicken in the tuna pate. She was allergic to poultry when she was younger. I cant believe that Royal Canin hasnt improved their ingredients and still uses the meat by-products. Im not that crazy about the synthetic form of vitamin. K used in the Hills k/d (menadione sodium bisulfite complex) or the powdered cellulose additive (wood pulp aka sawdust), but theres not much of a variety in the k/d diets and unless one tries raw food, theres no novel proteins for cats with food allergies: ,
Jericho & Thunder The 2 Gray Cats thatβs good news. Iβm happy to hear that.
Yeah, Thunder didnt care much for the pate, but he eats the stew. The 1/8 cup of dry food is a mid-day snack for him while Im at work. Yes, he did have some follow up labwork that did show an improvement in his kidney levels.
Aww Thunder is a good boy. I hope he keeps eating the food so it can help him.
Thank you so much!
I am glad he likes it. Wish you and the cats all the best!
Thank you so very much!
Thunder is doing his best to adapt to his new diet….he is a very smart boy and knows the new food is meant to help him in some way. He knows how much he is loved and I know he appreciates everything.
Thank you so much!
