Chad Brown, DVM · Accepted Answer

hello and thank you very much for your question. I applaud you for taking such a proactive approach to your cats health. The best recommendation I can give you to help prevent kidney disease is to feed a senior diet or a very low protein diet. The more protein that a cat has the more possibly toxic byproducts that can build up in the cats system when the kidneys are not functioning correctly. But before trying an over the counter senior food, I recommend you take your cat to the veterinarian to have them perform a CBC and chemistry profile As well as a urinalysis. Because if there are any issues with your cats kidneys currently, and over the counter food will not be the best choice for your cat. Instead, you will need to b because if there are any issues with your cats kidneys currently, and over the counter food will not be the best choice for your cat. Instead, the veterinarian will prescribe your cat a prescription kidney friendly diet and that will be vastly better than anything over the counter. Thanks a lot for your question. I hope I have given you some help today.
