8/28 Lanky AMPS 232, PMPS 324

[sehjak (Susan & Lanky)]

Yestercay's Condo

Morning - thank you everyone for your kind works yesterday regarding Otis, very comforting indeed.

Lanky is doing well as his reduced dose kicked in quite nicely last cycle. Both he and brother, Bruski, enjoyed their breakfast switching bowls at least 3 o 4 times. Because of Lankys urine having high protein content, he is supposed to have a low protein diet in addition to low carbs now. I think Wellness (chicken, turkey and beef & chicken) should fit the bill. Any thoughts on that or other options? His medication is Enalapril 2.5mg tabs taken 1xday & will be rechecked in a couple of weeks. His 1st pill was taken Thursday, 8/26. Any of you have experience or knowledge of this complication in a diabetic or acro kitty? Guess I could post over on general health and see what turns up.

'Tis Caturday, again already. Hope you all have a good one! Caturday is usually chores, laundry, errands, and that dastardly vacuum machine around here! :mrgreen:

Hug all your kitties too!

BTW Do Lou is also on enalapril 1/2 of a 2.5mg sid and has been on this med since 2006 and has never had a problem I know does not have the same issues as Lanky but just wanted to let you know we have never had a problem or side effect so far.

Susan --

I'd post over on Health about some of the food options. There's a CRF Yahoo group that many people here say is quite good and no doubt, there is information about diet there.

sorry I can't help with the food situation, but I'm sure somebody can. I like the yellow, though!

Hey Susan - did Dr. Lunn prescribe the enalapril? Do you know why that was prescribed instead of benazepril? I'm curious because Boo has CRF and proteinurea and things are progressing quickly. Dr. Lunn prescribed benazepril to help the proteinurea.
