Kirara and Tiger lily is thriving on Dr. Jones's supplements. Thank you for having it made. Thank you for adding any fish protein , or any thing do with the see. My cats is allergic to it. Their dust mites allergies is almost gone. We here at Kirara And Family. We love you. The best Veterinarian we know of. 🤗
My vet said that Epikatin could be detrimental due to the calcium in it. What is your view in that regard? Thank you.
I do have a question, if I may?. I have a 5 month kitten who just got spayed 2 weeks ago. She has been fine full of energy playing talks alot, etc. Her body shape normal but when I woke up this morning both sides of her body look caved in skinny in-between her rib cage and rear. She's been quiet all morning, hiding under the bed most of the day, her meow is so soft almost no meow. She's been eating and went for a poop. I worry I tell my aunt and uncle they say I'm just worrying for nothing She's fine. I don't know what to do? Is this normal? 🤔 I have no vet clinic near me not taking new patients and have to drive over an hour and no car at the moment. Is there anything I can give her? 😭😔 feel so sad for her. Love my baby girl.
Hi there, my friend’s kitty has ckd, I think in kidney failure, and she’s on subcutaneous fluids. She stopped eating two days ago and is constipated. Do you have any homeopathic ideas, other than her current vet treatment to entice her to eat and help her relieve herself?
Hey! The Slipper Elm you've suggested also has mircocrystalline cellulose and magnesium stearate, are these okay for a cat to be taking? Please answer this if you can! Thanks
My cat just got diagnosed. He's only 4 years old, we recognized it quite early and he is quite young, so we're praying he survives. ❤
Vet told us when our cat was 8-years of age, that he was dying of kidney disease. We put him on age-appropriate Science Diet food (kibble and canned food), Omega 3 and 6 supplements, Pet Wellbeing Kidney Disease Support Gold Cat Supplement, and lots of water. Here, 12 years later, he is still kicking.
Do you need a prescription for science diet ?
@@reza_dc2 Some of the Science Diet mixes are only available through a vet.
How much Petwellbeing kidney disease gold cat support you give him a day. My us laying down and has no energy. Please help. I took him to vet and because I'm broke they couldn't do everything to him. So they just did subcreaous fluids with the big drip and i took him home with the bag. I found him laying down and give him the fuilds and needle and he's still laying down hours later. He's gotten up once but he really weak and underweight. He doesn't want to eat his kd food! Help! He's been with me since i was a little kid. My cat is 20 years old.
@@justdrive5327 We give him about a half a dropper full every day. When he gets dehydrated, we give him plain Pedialite mixed with 2% low-fat milk. When his stomach is upset and he throws up frequently, we grind a very small amount of Pepcid into his milk/Pedialite mix. Additionally, here in the last few years, we let him eat a bit of regular old wet food along with his kd food. He enjoys that and that helps in hydration as well. He only eats in small amounts, several times a day. I might have given you the impression that our cat is doing very well. He is not. He has his good days and his bad days. He is like a walking skeleton, his coat is dull and rough, but he still seems to enjoy being around us. We know his days are numbered and we just try to keep him happy and comfortable. Twenty years is a good, long life for a cat. Our last two cats (sisters) died at 17 and 18 years of age (both with kidney disease). It's never pleasant to see our animals sick and in the end stages of their lives. Just keep loving your guy to the very end and keep him comfortable. And know that as his protector, the one thing you cannot protect him from is time. Hang in there!
@@michaelquillen2679 Half a dropper, You mean half of the full dropper stick? The instructions says one drop per pound. Mine only weighs 4 pounds. About 3 weeks or almost a month ago when he was diagnosed with kd he was 6 pounds. So also like a walking skeleton. Well not walking that much anymore. But 2, 3 days ago. Alot of walking! My cat -is- was, a strong athletic(hopefully will be athletic again) 20 year old!I took him to the vet last time because he had ataxia and was walking drunk. That's how i found out
Wish I saw this video earlier. I lost my sweet Tabby Cat to Chronic Kidney Disease. I follow everything the doctor advice and never fail to give meds and go for monthly checkups. Eventually my boy had seizures and doctor assume he either have anemia or something else. Before they can even do the blood test, my boy had pass away sooner. I was devastated, I done my best to save him and wish I could do more for him. Rest in peace my sweet boy.
Sounds like you tried very hard to keep your Tabby alive. Sometimes there can be health issues that don’t show until too late. Don’t blame yourself, your kitty wouldn’t want that!
my cat is 8 years old suffering through kidney disease. she is being treated. pray for her
Get well soon. 👍
Even my DARLING OREO how's 8 n half yrs age, diagnosed CKD we are giving him medicines. Following what Dr says. I m forcefully giving him everything. He's not showing interest to take his food. I m Very Much worried
Nearly for abt more than 1 month he didn't eat food( whiskas tuna) survived only on coconut water. On Hepatic Diet n nw I ordered renal diet.
Praying God to bless him with GOOD HEALTH. He does 🙏to sun lord. I ll make him to pray.
My cat was 14.5 diagnosed with diabetes (by was 486!!) & CKD.. he just missed his 20th birthday by 1 day..I had to say goodbye. He lost his best friend kitty 2 weeks prior & my older guy went downhill fast his last 5 days. I'm proud to say he was in kidney failure 5.5 yrs! Miss you Simba!❤❤
Dear Dr. Jones,
I just wanted to personally thank you for your videos. I have a sweet cat 19 yr old cat named Sammy who has suffered from CKD since Dec 2019. The vet who diagnosed him gave us special kidney diet food and pills for high blood pressure (without even checking it) and said he had 6 months to live. This dear cat is my heart and soul, I've had him since I was 9 years old and naturally, I refused to accept what the vet said. I found your videos in Dec 2019 and you have no idea how much they helped. You gave me SO much hope. I found a different vet, one who was so kind and generous with his time and very understanding of my love for Sammy. Up until recently, we've done sub q fluids every other day for him and his special treat after was his favorite canned food mixed with your supplement. He loved it!
Unfortunately, I've made the difficult decision to have him put down today, but we had 19 months together and we savored every moment and he was a champ through it all. Your euthanasia videos have also just given me comfort at this time. I am terrified to say goodbye to my best friend, but he's very weak and struggling to walk on hard surfaces, when he pees he ends up lying down, he has no interest in me or any other furry friend, and is refusing to go anywhere besides underneath my bed or outside. I see I'm holding on because I don't want to say goodbye plus he's still eating (the dry food I declined him for all those months lol) and drinking water, but it's time.
Thank you so much for having compassion for animals and giving great educated advice. I credit your supplement for extending and maintaining his quality of life. Sammy also used Slippery Elm, per your advice, to help with nausea and it worked very well! You are a wonderful person. Thank you so much, Dr. Jones. Be well.
All the best,
Sam and Em x
I hope you are doing well. You did a wonderful job taking care of your cat. It’s hard to let go. Hoping you found peace.
I give my cat Pedialyte. Vet said it was okay. My cat was dehydrated and I can’t do the needle thing. Pedialyte has made a lot difference in my cat. I put Pedialyte in his food dish on top of his wet food so he gets all those electrolytes replaced
A bit late but I'm crying in bed for you and Sam. Such a heartbreaking decision to have to make. Hope you are recovering well. X
My cat SPIRIT is going on 17😢😢😢😢 😢😢 C.K.D. SUCKS
pills for high blood pressure actually reduce the progression of CKD with or without high BP.
What works for my 17-year-old cat is B12 for red blood cell production, calcium carbonate, herrings, Pepcid, and adding more filtered water mixed in to every wet meal. No problems with appetite or elimination. He's old but he's happy!
How is he?
What about using Pedialyte? My veterinarian says its okay to give a cat Pedialyte for dehydration. I put it in his food dish until he looked better. He was dehydrated. It helped my cat.
@@GatheringBitByBit If your vet said Pedialyte is okay, I'd go with that answer as I'm not a vet (I've only done a ton of research). Glad your kitty is better.
@@jonogren5567 Sorry didn't ever get a notification that you replied. My cat just turned 18 and is going strong (knock on wood). Thanks for asking.
@@evydarling - what I have learned having cats as pets and mine have lived a long time , is that at home palliative care for senior cats is all one can really do outside of injury that requires antibiotics or surgery and those I even question along with vaccinations. My 15 year old kitty pal died last Saturday. I’m really going to miss him. I have spent over $1,000 at the vet and he died anyway. It was after vaccines that he took a turn for the worst. He was diagnosed early kidney disease in December 2021 and he died May 28, 2022 at 2:30 am. At least he did not die alone. I was with him. He was losing bodily functions in-spite of everything I did but he hung on as long as he could. 😭
Whose cat heard the can opener?
Bijou my senior boy did 😻♥️!
"murray likes food." Same, Murray. Same.
Would be great if you could do an updated Cat CKD video. Its such a shame products such aa Azodyl arebg widely available .
I’m so glad they’ve discovered so much more about this problem. Back over twenty years ago, I was told kidney problems were due to tar in some of the canned cat food causing crystals. Maybe, that was incorrect. But, also that the cat ph was off as they are carnivore. Not grain eaters. Had a cat with a lot of problems. I could not afford the vet treatments and it seemed rough for the cats. At first sign of crystals I’d learned to put a little apple cider vinegar ( with the mother) in their water. Seemed to dissolve the crystals, and stop the problem. Worked like a charm. But, I am still wondering if there aren’t several causes. What about high oxalates foods ( as occurs with humans ). Such as spinach and sweet potatoes in their foods. Sounds like healthy food. But, can create kidney stones and bladder stones.
Hi, ine of my cats is diagnosed with CKD.
May I know what apple cider brand you can recommend?
Thank you.
My cat is almost 18 yrs female Himalayan her kidney enzymes were high that the doctor said she doesn't have allot of time left that was a almost 2 yrs ago she's on kidney support gold from pet wellbeing from chewy. Com. And diolieve 500 mg CBD also wet food from prescription diet a/d chicken I use alkaline water in her food and add the water mixed with nature's sunshine liquid chlorophyll es also her enzymes improved to be in the normal range she's more active and goes up ther stairs where she didn't move around at all hope this info helps other s
Where do you buy her CBD oil ?
I’ve been using dmso Dr Jones told us about,it’s wonderful for pain ,plus guitar players use it .
Thank you🥰
Wow great! Thank you for sharing!
Does CBD help the kidneys? the Doctor doesn't mention in this video. Thanks.
Will these recommendations also apply to small Chihuahuas with kidney disease?. Thank you so much 💗love your videos!
What’s amazing it that 3 of the remedies show up as “frequently bought together” on Amazon! Good work Dr Jones!
And we miss you Murray! ❤️ Such a good boy!
Just fed this to my baby. Woke up to her throwing up so I decided even though she’s not out of her old food to switch her right onto this recipe. She’s devouring this and keeps looking over at me like omg thank you so much mom! Thank you so much Doctor for giving me this natural option for my 17 year old baby!
Happy to hear that. You’re welcome!

What diet are you feeding? Thanks
Thank you so much Dr Jones. I am so grateful for the video. My kittie was just DX'd w/kidney disease. I put her on the Azodyl and Epakitini, so it was wonderful to see you talk about that. She is also trying Calcitriol. The conventional Vet agreed to put her on it when I gave him the information. We'll see how it goes. I do give her krill oil and I just started her on Standard Process Feline Renal Support. What do you think about Calcitriol? You are such a blessing! Please keep doing what you are doing because we desperatly need you.
I lost my baby girl cat 3 days ago. She was doing great in the morning until around 10:30 am. She was relaxing in the cat bed at about 10 am. It was a little cold so I covered her back with a blue towel. A few minutes later, she left the cat bed and walked to the glass back door and sit down as she normally did. At around 10:30 am , she walked back to the bed and paved on it but meanwhile she started meowing abnormally that I had never heard before. She had never meowed like that before. I heard other cats meowing like that when they were not feeling well, I guessed she was about to vomit, so I held her gently with my arms and dropped her on the floor. She didn't vomit but was meowing louder and louder and more and more frequently. I held her again and dropped her in the soft and comfortable bed where she slept every day at night beside me. She was keeping meowing and her stomach started rising and sucking faster and faster. I called the vet immediately for emergency. On my way to the animal veterinary hospital while my friend was driving the car, I was holding her in my arms. I saw her nose and eye sockets turn pale from pink red. She was crying painfully. 12 minutes later we got to the hospital. In the emergency room the vet and his assistants checked her blood and gave her an ultrasonic examination. They said they found fluid around her right kidney and her right side kidney burst , meanwhile my baby cat stopped breathing. They said they were doing CPR on her and gave her a shot to allay the pain. Then they gave her another shot to make her heart to beat . That was what they told me on the phone while I was waiting outside the hospital. Two nurses came to tell me my cat was dying and asked me to sign a paper to put her down. I said NO and asked them why they didn't want to use the infusion- aspiration syringes to drain the fluid around her right side kidney. Apparently that fluid was from her right side kidney and it is very toxic and waste and would get her organs shut down. They said they didn't know what it was if they drain it my cat would die. I still tried so hard and begged them to drain the fluid . I told them that if they did nothing ,my cat would die, if they drain or extract the toxic fluid from her body she still would die, why not give a try to drain it? They said nothing but again asked me to sign the paper to put her down or I would not be allowed to take a look at my cat or have my cat returned to me. I wanted to go inside the emergency room where my cat was, the nurses grabbed my arms and prevented me. Finally , I had to say I wouldn't sign the paper and wouldn't give up on my cat, I would take my cat to other hospital, finally they said ok, and told me they would give my cat another shot to stop her pain. I told them to be honest not to put her down. They said they wouldn't and said that shot was for stopping her pain. Finally they went to the emergency room, carried my baby cat out . We argued nearly 20 minutes before they finally returned and allowed me to see my cat. While typing this right now, I can't stop crying so hard! This 20 minutes was the very last 20 minutes of her life when she was alive and it was also very last 20 minutes that i could have been with my baby girl when she was still alive!After they returned my poor baby girl, her head and all her legs , paws and her butt completely soaked out. she was so weak, she tried to keep her eyes open and when I was calling her " Linlin, Mommy is here baby, don't leave mom,don't give up." She was breathing so hard and tried to meow, after trying meow 3 times, she took her very last breath and died in my arms. I lost my baby girl!
There is no words that can describe my sharp heart-wretch pain! She was only 10 and half years old I could have given her a lot more love and happiness in the future if she was still alive !
When the vet finally shew up , he didn't show up until my cat was dying. I tried so hard to hold back tears and suppress my grief , asked him if my cat had acute renal failure or ruptured kidney, he said he didn't know. The nurses beside him told me my cat's bladder was normal. I asked him why there was only fluid around her right side kidney if the fluid was not from her right side kidney? He said he didn't know. I asked him so why initially he asked the nurse to tell me my cat's right side kidney burst if it the fluid was not from that kidney ? He said no idea what disease my cat died from, maybe cancer, maybe blood clot or brain bleeding . I said no matter where the fluid was from, apparently it was not supposed to be there and it was very toxic waste and fatally dangerous and that was how it got all her organs shut down, why they hadn't drained or extracted toxic fluid out of her stomach with infusion-aspiration syringes before it flew all over her body inside and before her organs shut down? He didn't answer and simply said he gotta go. My heart is SO PAINFUL!
Dr, Jones, what disease did my cat probably die from? Did my cat had acute renal failure or was her right side kidney ruptured? Should the fluid around her right side kidney be drained? Thank you !!
I'm so sorry about your kitty. Mine is quite ill and just a few weeks ago she was doing pretty well. It sounds like yours had an unusual problem, but I hope you find out the answers you need. Just remember that you did everything you could and you loved her enough to try everything. I'm trying to remember those things for myself too because I' already racked with guilt and regret of what I should have or could have done months ago if I had known more. Take care and I believe there is a pet heaven and we'll see them again.
@@Savannah-ed4rv Thank you very much Savannah.❤❤My prayers are with you. I wish your furry baby will get well soon.❤🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏❤
OMG that is gut wrenching 😪😪😪 so so sorry about your cat, that was awful to experience 😪 I have lost my fiancé a month ago, and now our cat was diagnosed with polycystic kidney disease. They wanted to put him to sleep immediately, I sad no. He still functions quite well and I wanted to have more time with him. Still looking what I can do to help him, as I will die if I lose him too 😭😭😭
@@Zizi14 Thank you so much Zizi. Sp sorry for your loss. My prayers are with you. I wish your baby 🐈 stay healthy and you take good care of yourself for yourself, loved one and your cat. ♥♥
I'm going through the same thing right now with my kitty. I've been trying everything to keep her alive. Poor baby! I'm so sorry to hear what happened to your sweet kitty. My heart goes out to you. You did everything you could to help her and she knows you loved her dearly. She will always be your little angel.
Murray is so sweet sleeping on the table. 😂😂😂
First of all, your advice and supplements put my 15 yo cat into remission from his diabetes and he’s been off insulin for a full month now!
Our vet always told us that he had early signs of kidney disease so we had him on KD food for quite some time.
My question is considering his diabetes and his signs of kidney disease, how much and how often should we be feeding Baxter this Wellness brand food?
Something to note: We feed him his KD food right now with your supplement twice a day about 2 to 2.5oz of food at 7am and 7pm and he always seems to be hungry in the middle of the day.
Thank you so much for all you do, I’d be lost without your videos
So informative, thank you thank you doc and murray
Thank you for your channel, tips on animals. One of your books would be a treasure! Thank you again for all you do!
Thank you very much for all of the very good work that you do. 🐈🐕
this cat is sooooo adorable 😭
He’s so big and so mellow love cats 🐱🥰
our vet said our boy went from CKD1 to CKD3 in one year. Problem is, they didnt tell us he had kidney disease. This vet said that we need to put him on a low protein diet but you said that a high protein diet is good in your video. Can you please clarify this for me? Thank you for all your wonderful help!
I think his cat was eating it for a preventative. I just read cats in early stage can have protein, but in later stage should eat less. I also read chicken or turkey was safe for them. I'm going through all this now and I'm getting a raw food brand because the Royal Canin ingredients read like trash. I don't trust those popular ones produced for vet offices.
@@bringingupthepast2608 We later talked to a holistic vet who said basically what you did, that you don't need to worry about it in the earlier stages. Thank you.
Thanks for the information. Murry is adorable. 🙂
I’m constantly using ur video as a reference to help my cat! I can’t thank you enough.
Who here doesn't have a cat but came to watch to support Dr. A.J ? And we love Murray too. Me lol. Wishing you and fam a great, safe weekend Dr. A.J.
Thanks for watching!
Yes, I support doc as well and Murray is such a good kitty😺
Very useful! Thanks!
Sorry about Murray’s passing😢
Thank you for this information. I purchased all of these items you suggested for my cat with CKD.
Thanks for your work Dr Jones. I use your suggestions all the time as an animal healer with a shelter.
Thank you. Murray was a very special cat.
Lombardi was only 14 & other than having a tooth removed, he never had any health issues. He didn't show ANY kidney issues/symptoms until the last 2 weeks before we had to let him go. That first week we found 2 puddles that I thought were vomit from too much cat grass which, for him, wasn't unusual at all. Also, he left a drop on hubby's lap but he had just come from the litter box. The biggest red flag was the next/last week when he got me four separate times in one day, he'd fall asleep and then have incontinence issues that would wake him up, leading to a trip to the vet & pet diapers. They did blood work, and his creation level was at 8.7, he was already at stage 4/end stage kidney failure. We still did two 'under the skin fluids', just in case, but they both went right to the kidney & when they did follow-up blood work, that level had jumped to 9.9. That level is supposed to be 1, 5 means 90% of the kidneys have failed, we were now talking kitty hospice. We spent our last 24 hours with him making him comfortable, making sure he knew we were there with him & how much he was loved. We had the vet come to the house the next day & even though he was still walking, eating, drinking & toileting, we knew what had to be done. The three things that helped me justify that we were doing the right thing, we knew he wasn't himself anymore, he was never going to be himself again & it was only going to get worse. Such a sweet boy, he'd already been through so much, enough was enough, we loved him too much for him to have to get to the 'worse'. We miss him like crazy but I have no doubt that we did the right thing.
Newly SUBSCRIBED. Thank you for all the great informative videos!!

my cat was also diagnosed with stage 2 ckd. what are you doing to help your baby and is anything getting better? I'm trying all kinds of wet food and researching supplements if you have any words or encouragement that would be awesome! I hope your baby feels better and things aren't as stressful for you, this is a difficult situation for them and for us as pet parents to watch. ❤️
@@breakingpoint3893 an amino acid called L Threonine, think 309, which is different from L Theanine, can help remove ammonia from the body. L glutamine, another amino acid, can help reduce muscle wasting. Perhaps they may come in handy at some point for your cat. Having kidney disease myself, I remember also reading something about the combo of threonine and BCCA benefiting those with kidney disease. But I can't remember the specifics.
There is a website called Earth Clinic, take a look if you can as it can be a good resource. It's got a separate compartment for pets and human ailments and natural remedies, including feedbacks and suggestions by readers. See if there are any info useful for you there. Namo Amitabha🙏
How is your cat I just found out my cat has it
Thank you once again from England. My old chap is 21 now and just showing signs so I'm off supplement shopping this afternoon.

Hi there, what do you think of Pronefra? Thanks
Good video. Entertaining too! Not long found your channel Dr Jones, but been great help to two of our cats already. One had ear trouble scratching and mites. The other a mouth abscess. Both made good recovery. Now, I'm looking for a video to sort out why another of our cats is leaking or seeping from his bottom. I'm searching through your kittie play lists.
what do you guys recommend best to lower phrosphorus levels aluminum hydroxide or calcium carbonate?
One of my cats has stage two kidney disease and he is sixteen, he has two special kibble that helps kidney disease, I talked to my veterinarian about giving him wet food because I have been doing lots of research on it and found that out she said he was eating very well and she would switch him in a couple weeks. He also has arthritis and is going on three different medications, he is very tolerant with eating and talking the meds and it helps that the vet is my mom and his owner😂 I am her kid 👧🙃. But I just really hope he doesn’t have to take more medications, I will talk to my mom about the other medications.
Thanks Again!!! God Bless Murray!!!😺😸
Happy to help!
Thanks Doc and beautiful Murray 🐅🐈🐱🐾😻🦁
Thank you too!
Thank you for the tips and information! I always love to watch!
Now i have a question so i have a dog with starts of kidney disease wat can i give my dog. And can he eating treats? And wat kind of supplements do he need. Also his coat is not as good as before. I hope that you can help my!!! Greats from Holland!
One of our 6 year old kitties has been struggling, and we found out he has FeLV. His kidneys aren't doing ideal. I already raw feed and use your Ultimate Feline (which our cats love!) He has been going to acupuncture and doing some holistic treatments. This video helped tremendously! The slippery elm was a game changer with his appetite! We are using all of the supplements you suggested in this video, and he turned a huge corner within days! I am so thankful for you and all of your amazing videos. Bless you and what you do ❤
How important is it to catch it early? What is the difference between acute kidney damage and chronic kidney damage. I read acute can be reversible...
Thank you dr jones for a good video i tried alot of things from your videos or your book and it helped my animals
You are very welcome
Hi Dr. Jones! Does this apply to dogs as well? My Westie gets phosphorus supplement for blood loss from bladder cancer, would the binder be helpful to her? She does have early kidney disease. I hope the phosphorus doesn’t made it worse for her kidneys. Thanks!
Thank you Dr. Jones. I am going to add these recommended supplements to my senior cat's diet. Am trying hard to keep my old friend going. He has early stages of KD and it is a challenge to keep his weight on. I offer him canned food any time he wants it but will eliminate any dry. He loves his Temptations but now I will give him more hugs instead.
What about food with cranberry in it? Was told that it helps. Thanks for the info 🙏😸
Hi, good morning Dr.. do you a video for chronic kidney disease in 🐕. Dogs..
Thank you for the info!! My cat looks just like Murray except my BooBoo has a pink nose!! He’ll be 18 in Oct. I noticed his weight loss of almost three pounds within six months. He went from being almost 16# last Sept to 13.3# in March. The vet put him on the Science Diet k/d but he’s not very interested in the dry. I’m feeding him just the wet but I can’t get him to eat more then one small can a day. He’s also taking two of the Azodyl in the morning and one at night. It’s not increasing his appetite. He stays in my bed sleeping most of the day & all night.
Dr. Jones do you have a video for dogs with kidney disease?
Hi. How do you give the azodyl? Can it be opened then sprinkled in food?
Murray looks like he enjoyed helping make this video. 😁 I recently watched several of your videos about home remedied for cats, cat flu, and eye infections. I am in awe at how well Murray does when you administer his eye drops!!!! I have a kitten I found on October 1, abandoned inside the wall of a storage unit. We literally tore part of the wall down to get him out. He weighed just 7 ounces when we brought him inside - sadly, people in this area abandon animals frequently. I estimate he was 2½ - 3 weeks old. (Still had blue eyes, ears open but partially folded over, wobbly when walking, still had milk teeth.) I started out bottle feeding him kitten formula and have slowly transitioned to wet food. He's now eating from a dish and using the litter box on his own which was a milestone am really grateful he has met. He caught an upper respiratory infection from one of my cats and his eye is runny and the pink part is swollen. So I brewed up some green tea and honey. I have to say that it works really well once I finally get it into his eye!! I am so grateful for your videos, now I just have to master the eye drop skills.
colloidal silver works too. i sprayed in my cats eyes 3 times a day and put it in a humidifier in the bathroom and 1 week they all kicked it. oh and i added l-lysine to their wet food int he morning. best treatment i have found.
Can I use all these supplements at the same time( mix them all and add it to daily meals) Or do I have to pick only 1 or 2 of these tips
Have a recently diagnosed cat, so doing lots of research. Glad I found your video. My cat also has hyperthyroidism and is on 5 mg day of methimazole. Are there any contraindications to the above recommendations or other steps you would add for a kitty dealing with both issues?
Do you have a link for the Azodyl? Another commenter mentioned how their vet said Epikitin could potentially be detrimental, could you please address this. I don't know where to begin and your video was the first one I came across in search of helping my cat with CKD. She was diagnosed this year, she's 17. Please reply 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Should I give him all of this supplement.. and for how long.
What do you think about prescriptions foods?
Thank you
You're welcome
Such great information! My cat drinks alot of water and urinates very often. This helped my cat but she has diabetes. Do I continue this process?
Sir, could you please help and provide information on kidney and liver illnesses of dogs?
What should they eat or refrain from and what holistic medicine can be provided?
Thank you in advance.
Blessings.
Is this recipe n supplements good for dogs for early stage of kidney disease????
I want to order the epakitin, krill and the probiotic supplements, how? online?
Kirara and Tiger lily gets coconut oil pea size daily and chia, Flex, and Hemp seed mix. Seeds is soaked in water over night , then put in food. Half a tsp once a day.
I looked up your supplement but in the UK it not free shipping and costs the same price as the product… I have a fussy cat who knows if something is added to his food so I’m not going to spend £50 plus on something he won’t touch.
Please consider having a UK outlet so we only pay the product price.
Yes this is all so true where do I get wellness food My 18 year old cat has kidney disease eats only canned and eats all the time drinks alot of water
Hi, Doc, Epakitin is not available in my country. What can you suggest as an alternative? There is an "Ipakitin" being sold online, but I am not sure it is reliable. There are also chitosan powders that are available. Will this be good enough? Please advise. Thanks!
i've been adding some water to the gravy cat food to make my 7yo intake more liquid.
I do the same. They actually love it.
Cat fountains can help too. The running water entices them to drink more.
@@PPMOCRG my cat will only drink from a fountain. He was a feral that got his hydration from air conditioners condensation.... baking soda cleans the bacteria from the fountains really well.
Can you make a video like this for dogs
Dr. Jones, could you please show a video on administering the azodyl capsules to a cat? Mine arrived yesterday but they are very big and my elderly guy (15) resists them for that reason. I read about a "shooter" device but worry in any case that I would cause choking. thank you, rob
Would you use the same things other than Taurine for a dog with CKD?
It seems to me it should be possible to put them on some of these supplements and food choices to prevent kidney disease. Any studies regarding this?
Thank you for sharing your knowledge Dr. Jones. My cat has had kidney disease for the past few years and had progressed to Stage 2 about a year ago. I discovered this video and started him on daily Omega-3's and Slippery Elm root a few times a week as I felt was needed. About a year later, he is now at the high end number wise of normal kidney function! I think it is the Omega-3's. Thank you so much!
Hello 😊, thank you so much for sharing this, this gives me hope. Could you please tell us how your cat is doing now (hopefully good), and what are you giving and feeding your cat (like everything). My beloved cat has stage 2 and I am researching thoroughly (doing basically my vet’s work) to start a new diet and protocol. I am hopeful it can be reversed, we just need the right information and most vets around me are careless.
Where can I get these products?
Thanks for this amazing advice. You speak SO QUIETLY. And the music is loud. you don't stick the product straight into the camera so we can write the name of it. I'm watching this clip 5 times and still can't catch up or decipher everything you said.
Hello Dr Jones , thank you for the video I want to ask about the digestive enzyme if I want to give my cat cooked diet should I add digestive enzyme to the meal ? I heard that cooked food lose the digestive enzyme cause of the heat so I have to add it but my cat have CKD so I'm afraid to do something wrong and make it worse .
where do you find the azodyl. I am not seeing a link
I am hoping you will do a vlog on kidney disease in dogs including diet. My Papiillon is just turning nine and his levels are very mild.
Do you have video for dogs with CKD?
Thanks. Really helpful. I use Astro’s Oil supplement for my cat

Dr. Jones do you have a video for CKD in dogs?
Would you use these same things on dogs. Honey is already taking everything but slippery elm? She’s same weight as Tula. 👍❤️❤️
Your cat so good!!! she eats everything you gave her! ^^ not mine.
I know this was 2 years ago, but I hope my comment still gets seen. I lost one of my cats over a year ago from CKD. His brother is still with us, but also has CKD. His vet has him on Hills k/d, he doesn’t eat it. I mix in another cat food hoping to entice him. He will not eat canned food, no soft treats, he’s extremely picky. Doesn’t even like water/broth in his kibble. He throws up multiple times a day, sometimes food, sometimes just bile. He LOVES plants, will rip your arm off for a basil plant. But makes him throw up even more. We have another kitty that’s healthy, but they share food so she has to eat what he does. There’s not many kibble options for CKD.
Dr. Jones please can u tell me what to take from this medicine based on analysis? How can i send u n get advice🙏🏻
Could I give the Epakitin powder with water in a syringe oraly? If my cat wont eat the food with it mixed in? Please and thank you.
Like before or after eating?
Which one should I get for an old cat I adopted who just starts to have sign of kidney disease? I bought her prescription food started this month. Thanks
Good day Dr. Jones, Thank you for your effort, I go through many of your videos and I learnt a lot, you give me hope to fight against disease with my cat. I came up an idea when I watched the video about Melatonin, could it be useful for cat with Chronic kidney disease? I am going to buy for another male cat with breast cancer (another long story) thus if it could use for kidney disease, I will also give this to that older cat with kidney problem. Thank you
Hi Dr. Jones, Please comment on use of CBD oil to treat kidney disease in senior cat age 15 with hyperthyroid, arthritis, and hypertension. thank you
