Rezki sound asleep after his ordeal at the vet this morning.
We went to get Rez his blood test this morning. He missed his year end test in 2017 as the vet tech was not about then.
It was surprisingly good and his kidneys seemed to have done really well. His creatinine was 2.1 from 2.7 last June. His BUN was a little higher but still within normal range. The vet was as surprised as myself and we think it’s his diet and his ability to drink more water than the rest. I also spoke about his raw diet of kangaroo, venison and chicken. The vet said the raw diet could also have contributed to this change as well although the previous recommendation was for him to be on a dry renal diet.
He screamed and yelled at the vet’s when they had to take his blood. Last year they had to sedate him for his test but this year he did not have to be sedated at all. After the vet took his blood he sat down and was quiet as though nothing had happened.
He is really a Jekyll and Hyde.
Rezki, we are so pleased to hear such positive health news. Keep drinking your water. Going to the vet is not fun but it is for your own good.
ReplyDeletePoor sweet Rez. We are so sorry you went through such a terrible time at the vet's. But we are pleased that the results were good. Keep it that way, please!

Dear, precious boy! Unpleasant experience for you but there was good news about your health. We think the diet must be one that suits you. San will always do her best to keep you healthy. Love to you, wonderful Rez.
ReplyDeleteP.S. Rez is gracious kitty. When the blood draw was over he forgave the vet. He did not hold a grudge.
