What does a complementary feed provide to the kidneys of companion animals?

The kidneys are an essential part of the urinary system, performing an initial filtering of the blood, that is, removing waste products that arise from cellular metabolism or from the outside through a filtering process. The nutrients in complementary feeds help this function to develop normally.

Kidney problems in dogs and cats: chronic renal failure

What happens when the kidneys stop working properly?

Chronic renal failure is characterized by a persistent and sudden decrease in kidney function.

Chronic renal failure is characterized by a persistent and sudden decrease in kidney function. It can be caused by toxic substances entering the kidney tissues of dogs or cats, or by intrinsic causes, as indicated in the following point about nephropathy.

In the case of dogs with renal failure, it may have a hereditary component. Renal failure in cats can also result from congenital causes, especially from polycystic kidneys.

When a cat or dog suffers from this condition, it can manifest in different ways. The most common symptoms are diarrhea, vomiting, loss of appetite and, consequently, weight loss, increased need for hydration and urination, lethargy, mood changes, poor coat quality... The veterinarian can perform a blood and urine analysis to determine the cause and type of renal failure, as well as other complementary tests deemed appropriate.

Chronic nephropathy, a problem in the renal system

When kidney lesions become structural, we refer to it as chronic nephropathy. This problem, common in cats and dogs, can be a long-term issue (and a possible cause of renal failure).

In the case of dogs and cats, this condition is divided into phases:

Phase 1. Increased water consumption and urine volume.
Phase 2. Similar to phase 1, with a greater amount.
Phase 3. Already presents signs of loss of renal function.
Phase 4. It has become chronic renal failure, with clear evidence of loss of renal function.

Feline nephropathy is one of the most common pathologies in older cats (15.3% of cats over 15 years old), although it can appear at any age. In the case of dogs, it is also a common cause of kidney disease in 44% of dogs over 10 years old.

Care and advice for the renal health of pets

The first step in the face of renal failure in cats or dogs (or other kidney-related problems) is to consider changes in the diet. Fats will be reduced, water intake increased, protein content reduced but of better quality, fresh fruits and vegetables (seedless), and especially foods rich in Omega 3 acids, for their anti-inflammatory capacity.

The professional with the most capacity to establish a diet and complementary feeds for cats, dogs, and other pets with kidney problems is the veterinarian. Consult any doubts with him.

Complementary feeds for dogs, cats, and other pets designed for normal renal health contain nutrients, minerals, and vitamins that help the normal functioning of the renal system. to healthy development of the system involved in waste and excess fluid elimination. These nutraceuticals help enhance its elimination function while providing an extra dose of antioxidants and vitamins.

Complementary feeds for cats and dogs specially formulated for proper renal function in different pets contain nutrients and substances of natural origin that contribute to maintaining normal kidney function.
