they were big enough to eat already :P

The video from the post is 2017, these pictures above are 2013 and 2014, and this is him right now:

Noob Saibot, 15yo. We also call him Pãe (a mix of pai + mãe [dad + mom in Portuguese])

He has always been the one who welcomed and took care of the new ones, but this batch in the video just kept insisting on trying to nurse, and he gave up resisting lol

That’s Sid Vicious, and my mom’s favorite song

This is Dali, he is 15.

I started with subcutaneous but after some time it wasn’t putting a dent on creatinine levels so I went to intravenous once a week, but then he developed phlebitis, so I changed to once every two weeks and alternating between front and back legs (he is not dehydrated btw). He won’t eat anything but Churu now, and I will never introduce another cat to Churu because they go crazy and then you can’t give anything else lol - I tried cheaper local brands, other cats absolutely loved when he didn’t even try so I gave it to them :P
I have another cat with kidney problems and she is on a low phosphorus diet already, but him? He doesn’t even try to taste it

Churu is the fucking real deal. I have this cat that has already lost a kidney and the other is very bad, he was very very skinny and I tried all kinds of treats and tasty things for him to eat, he spent three days getting IV fluids in the vet and the vet said he liked Churu so I bought it… anyway, this was three years ago, the last time we did a blood test and his creatinine wouldn’t fall below 5. He is still alive, the motherfucker is even chubby, he is moved by Churu, I think he is only alive so he can have more Churu, we give him from 4 to 7 everyday… I don’t even dare to do a blood test again, how he has no clinical symptoms of his severe kidney failure after so many years and still has shining fur is crazy
