Renal food for cats

Howdy Folks!

Our cat has CRF and is starting to get tired of KD and (royal canin) LP. Does anyone know whether Purina NF and/or Iams Renal food are available in Ontario?

Thanks!

How old is your cat, when was s/he diagnosed?

How is your cat feeling? ie normal/active or depressed/grouchy/hiding etc

What treatments aside from food are you currently doing?

Do you have a copy of the lab report numbers for BUN, Creatinine, USG etc?

I don't live in Ont but I'm sure some Vet clinic there would carry those foods or be willing/able order them in for you.

However you need not limit your CRF cat to prescription-based low protein/no taste foods, here are some good quality low phosphorus canned foods to try:
