If your pet needs kidney health support, it could be vital for their general health and wellbeing, as the kidneys play an important role.

Maintaining good renal health is vital for an animal’s general health and well-being especially as they get older. The kidneys play an important role in an animal’s body, if your pet needs kidney support it’s important to speak to your vet.

The kidneys carry out many important tasks, including helping to balance certain substances in the blood and filter out the body’s waste as urine.

Common signs that your pet needs kidney health support include:

Urinating more than normal

Damaged kidneys struggle to manage the levels of water in your pet’s body. This means they will urinate more often and have more water in their urine making it light in colour or almost clear.

Drinking more water

Your pet may drink more to make up for how much water they are losing during urination

Looking generally unwell

As their kidneys are struggling to get rid of toxins from the body, these can build up and make your pet feel very unwell and might cause them to be actually sick.

Loss of appetite

Your pet may be off their food, due to feeling unwell so not eat as much.

Losing weight

You may notice that your pet is losing weight, this could be due to them not eating as much.

Feeling tired and generally unhappy

Your pet may appear more lethargic and seem irritable due to feeling unwell and being uncomfortable.

If your pet is showing any of the above signs, be sure to speak to your vet as they could be caused by other health related issues and your vet is best placed to monitor your pet’s health.
