So far we’ve had two cats at our clinic that have been on “suspect” foods that were on the recall list. One, who is a young cat, presented on Saturday with non specific signs including inappetance and lethargy. His bloodwork was all fine except for a mild elevation in glucose.There were no kidney abnormalities. After some subcutaneous fluids and pain medicine he started to eat. Over night he ate but then the next day he was mopey again. That evening I gave him more fluids and pain killer and by the next day he was back to his old self.
The second cat, who is ancient, presented with blatant kidney failure as evinced by his bloodwork. BUN 175, creatinine 9, elevated phosphorous. We put an IV catheter in and he made a huge improvement that night- started eating,etc. The next day however, he threw up everything and went back to being lethargic and depressed. Also pulled his catheter out. He is still hospitalized- just getting SQ fluids now.
Anybody else have any new info on what to look for or do?
