Renal K - Potassium Supplement for Dogs & Cats - Supports Managing Potassium Levels - Palatable Gel with Maple Flavor - 5oz

This vitamin K is good as long as your cat will eat it. I was able to get my cat to somewhat allow me to put it in her mouth. It helped her regain muscle strength rather quickly. Within days.

Brought my senior cat back from the kidney failure abyss. What a great product! She’s back to her old self again. I wish it was locally available. Keep some on hand if you have a senior cat.

Price a little but half of the vet price. My cat eats it without any trouble and her kidneys are staying stably

Worked very well

My cat will take this when mixed with wet foos.

Easy to mix into my cat's food, and he seems to like the maple flavor. It is a twice daily supplement though, but since taking this, my cat's potassium levels have been in the normal range.

This is a must have for older cats who become prone to renal issues. With diet changes and this product, I have noticed a difference and a slow down of the symptoms that occur when cats begin to show signs.

I have a cat with asthma and she was on prednisolone for awhile, while I waited for her inhaler to come in (I have to order that from Canada). Some cats I have had will do OK on prednisolone long-term, but this one was having issues. Bloodwork at the vet's office revealed that her potassium levels were low, so the vet had me use this product to get the cat's potassium levels back up while I weaned her off the prednisolone. First and foremost, this worked. You will need to periodically go to the vet for bloodwork in such a situation because you may have to change the dosage depending on the cat's response. We started with one dose per day, had to move up to two, and now we are back down to one. We give this in a 6 mL syringe with about 2.5 mL filled (give or take; as this is a gel, it is a little difficult to precisely measure). The 6 mL syringes (they are from Monoject, I don't think BD makes one in that size) are ideal because you can remove the plunger and squeeze the tube of gel over the syringe to fill it. It takes a bit of practice but you get pretty good at estimating how much you've put in there after awhile. Anyway, then I squeeze the gel from the syringe and into the cat's mouth. I aim near the back/side so she can't spit it out easily. I don't think she particularly likes the flavor of this stuff so I am pretty sure it would not work to put on top of her food. This is a little difficult to clean out of the end of the syringe after use so I have to replace the syringes every so often. One tube lasts quite a long time for us. I think my cat has been on this stuff for 3 months now and we are only partway through our third tube. Not all cats on prednisolone will need this. I have a cat with inflammatory bowel disease who has been on prednisolone for five years and his bloodwork is always remarkably good for a cat of his age (13 years) and condition. But my cat with asthma doesn't handle the medication as well and this product has definitely helped get her potassium levels back in a normal range.

Cat got used to it very quickly, has been on it for more than six months now, stable kidneys.
