| Chronic Renal Failure & Diabetes - http://www.indulgedfurries.com/petdiabet Chronic renal failure (CRF) occurs when 70% of kidney function is irreversibly destroyed. The kidneys consist of tiny units called nephrons, which are responsible for filtering out toxins and wastes from the blood. These toxins and wastes become concentrated in the urine and eliminated from the body. When the kidneys no longer have enough functioning nephrons to effectively rid the body of toxins, uremic poisoning results. - Read more |

| Cat health: Signs and treatments of Feline Chronic Renal Failure - http://www.helium.com/items/326195-cat-h The function of the kidney is to conserve water. It does this by removing salt from the urine-chemical equilibrium dictates that water will follow salt-and putting it back into the bloodstream. The BUN and creatinine levels are indicators as to how well the kidney is able to get rid of the nitrogenous compounds-or, in other words, how well the kidney is able to function. - Read more |

| Feline Chronic Renal Failure - http://www.buzzardsbayvetassociates.com/ Feline chronic renal failure is a gradual decline of kidney function and is generally a disease of older cats. Usually this decline is caused by degeneration of the functional units of the kidney from chronic interstitial nephritis, but other factors can contribute such as high blood pressure, bacterial infection and dehydration. The kidneys become inefficient at their job of filtering out toxins without loosing too much water. Urine becomes dilute while toxin levels build in the blood. The other job of the kidneys is to make the hormone erythropoietin which stimulates the release of new red blood cells from the bone marrow. Without enough of this hormone a cat will become anemic. - Read more |
