I am just curious if if other cats on here had any side effects with the medication for proteinuria (I.e.: Telsmisartan)?
I am not sure if it is due to the Telsmisartan but Theodore seems to just sleep most of the days now. He walks for basics. But generally even though he is lazy, he would walk to greet me and occasionally jump in bed. I've put food beside him where he sleeps so I am not sure if I am contributing to it, he did move around a lot more before at least to be in the sun hang out with us on the couch. I read anemia is a side effect for cats as well. This is my main concern but he still eats okay although he is picky.

*6/26/24 started Telsmisartan

I am giving Pettinic again, I will be doing it twice a day as the last few days I only did once..For a while I've been struggling with foods for Theodore. In Canada they discontinued Dr. Esley's in pet stores so I've been ordering on Amazon but the shipments have been hit and miss with timing PLUS only salmon which his flavour of choice is CHICKEN. Theodore flat out boycotted Young Again, he would eat DM but it spikes him, Ziwi raw he wouldn't touch...I did make a trip to get some Dr. Esleys for him in the US and successfully brought it over so that helps because Amazon kept cancelling my shipments. I haven't adjusted his doses for this reason because of all the diet changes. It seems the 4.5 units was working well for him except for yesterday and I have no idea what changed.

Would be happy on feedback if I should wait a little before doing a curve as it seems he's in a bounce?

Also Looking on feedback regarding Telsmisartan, if you think I should stop, or check UPC? Vet said after a month we should be testing blood for anemia + UPC...
