Management of chronic pain and kidney disease

Chronic Pain

Cats are very good at hiding pain and are often overlooked because of it. Pain causes a variety of clinical signs including reduced appetite, difficulty jumping, lameness and resentment of being handled or groomed. Pain relieving medication designed just for cats can be used to effectively relieve pain. The hardest part is usually recognising they are suffering pain.

Kidney disease

We routinely screen cats for evidence of kidney disease and when found, fully investigate the cause so we can recommend the best possible therapy. This often involves analysis urine, imaging the kidneys with ultrasound and collecting a biopsy when indicated. The Cat Clinic excels at diagnosing and managing kidney disease.
