Chronic Renal Failure Remedies
Posted by Reuven (Ontario, Canada) on 12/27/2013

Dear Sir/Ms. I have read some post but I am not sure if just herbs or extracts can have a significant positive impact in a progressive illness like feline CRF. Could please let me know which product options would be the best in terms of effectiveness and easy to administer to a cat with CRF? Thank you

Theresa, Thank u for fast reply! I'm unemployed so things are very bad. I have ACV already tho because I've taken it for myself for a long time. Is there a particular brand of Alon Vera juice u can recommend. I used to drink it myself when I had horrible reflux. Do u know anything about Azodyl. Vet recommend fed it. It it's expensive. $50 for one month supply! Thank u so much. Ds

Hey Butterflyrose!

I have no brand of aloe vera juice - so just what you can afford, as long as its pure and no preservatives; if you have a friend with a live plant, see if you can get 1 big leaf [or several] and then squeeze the juice out to see if your cat will take it.

For sure try the ACV.

As for the Azodyl - I am not seeing that it provides any kind of bang for the buck. I would skip it - JMHO.

Fish oil given how? What dosage?

She's lost 2.5 lbs at least now. Hates taking pills. I hope someone will see this and help me. Thanks greatly. Ds

DMSO
Posted by Hopeful (Spain, Galicia) on 03/23/2010

We are in Galicia, Spain and are urgently requesting some info. about DMSO. Our dog is in kidney failure. He is being treated by a vet, but he will die soon if we do not try sometime else. We want to try to treat him with DMSO. Does anyone know where we can get some here?

Thank you for any help you can offer.

You might want to try adding wheatgrass (1 scoop of Powder) the product is called "Amazing Grass". This powder is like non other and kept in the freezer. Also add 2-3ml of organic aloe vera to very good food (the best you can get in your location) mix with about a half can of the best food in the morning. Then get the best dry food and leave in the dish for your dog. This has made an incredible difference in our dog, I hope it helps for you.

Flowers Mom,

I have been giving my cat sardines and my friend looked it up and found that fish had higher phosphorous than meat and sardines were the highest.

Is the chart he read wrong about that?

Is cod liver oil considered good fish oil?

Lyme Disease Connection
Posted by Patty (Boylston, MA) on 04/30/2009

I just lost my Chinese Sharpei to kidney failure. They aren't sure why. his kidneys failed but they think it was lyme disease. I have 2 other sharpei's. What can I do to help out the kidneys of my other dogs? Also, if your dog was diagnosed with kidney failure what would you do to try & restore them as best as possible & if our dogs have the lyme disease in their body what can we do to reverse it. Some people have said that the dry dog foods are no good no matter how expensive they are. They believe that dry dog food may have contributed to his kidney failure. My understanding is that Sharpei's are know for kidney failure. Please advise. Thank you

Dandelion Leaves
Posted by Prishen (Durban, Kwazulu Natal, South Africa) on 11/24/2011

Hi there

I'm from South Africa. My dog had a blood transfusion on Monday 21st November 2011. The vet says she is very pale & perhaps she is anemic & can't produce much red blood cells. This could be a cause from tick bite fever as well. She lost weight, gums became whitish yellow & she also lost her appetite, her belly staryed to swell as well.

Due to her being old, 11 years old the vet say her kidneys are failing & heart is under so much strain.

Can dandelion resolve any of the above? What can help produce or increase red blood cells, what can reduce the high ammonia levels for liver damage?

SOS, please help & please provide your contact numbers and country so I can call you, this can help us all.

Regards, Prishen

Vita-Mix
Posted by Eve (Toronto, Ontario, Canada) on 09/28/2009

Hello,

I read about the vita-mix for cats that has CRF and I would like to try it on my cat too. Is vita-mix a brand? If not, which brands of supplements manufacturers make that? Thanks!

EC: Sorry, we had mistitled it "Vita-Mix" when it's actually called "Halo Vita-Mineral Mix". If you search for it on Google, you will see the various pet stores that carry it.
