Just over this last christmas, my cat started to act weird. He no longer ate, and spent all of his time by the heater, drinking lots - I mean LOTS of water, yet hardly going to the bathroom.
When we finally got him to the vets, later that week, they did a blood test.
All of the elements that would normally be expelled by the kidney were in such high quantity, the computer no longer had them regeistered, simply '250< mg' or such.
We had the choice of putting him on dialysis, or home care, which would be a long, painful, and untimately downhill battle until he died.
I chose, instead, to let him go. And I am proud that I did. I still have his collar, right there, beside me.
