Kidney disease is one of the most serious and common health conditions in cats, especially as they age.
What many pet owners don’t realize is that not all kidney failure is the same.
Some cases develop suddenly and, if detected early, can still be treated and even reversed. Others progress silently over years, and by the time symptoms appear, the damage is already permanent.
This is what makes kidney disease so dangerous:
Early signs are subtle and easy to miss
Cats often show symptoms only after significant kidney function is lost
And treatment strategies differ completely between acute and chronic cases
How can you tell the difference between acute and chronic kidney disease? When is emergency treatment critical, and when is long-term management the key? What can you do to detect kidney problems earlier in your cat?
This episode breaks it down clearly — so you can make informed decisions at the right time, for your cat’s long-term health.Follow TÔM THE EXPERT to care for your cat with science, awareness, and confidence
