貓貓腎病症狀觀察 辣椒葉(英) 許夢兒(中)

CRF can only be accurately diagnosed with clinical tests. There are some symptoms and behaviors that indicate the likelihood of CRF and, if these are observed, the cat should be tested as soon as possible.
CRF Chronic Renal Failure(慢性腎衰竭?)必須經過臨床檢驗才能確診。有一些相關的症狀和行為可以指示CRF, 如果發現貓有以下症狀應該趁早檢驗

The most telling signs are increased thirst (polydipsia) and excessive urination (polyuria). As the condition progresses, your cat may experience loss of appetite, nausea and vomiting, weight loss, poor hair coat and emaciation. Only 30% of kidney capacity is needed for normal functioning. Therefore, no symptoms will be seen until approximately 70% of renal function is lost. It is important to begin treatment as soon as the first symptoms appear.
最顯著的症狀有煩渴和多尿症。病情繼續惡化你的貓可能有厭食，惡心，嘔吐，體重下滑，皮毛變差 憔悴消瘦等症狀。
正常腎功能隻需要腎的30%, 所以在腎功能下降了70%之前事沒有症狀的。所以發現任何症狀都要及時就醫

Even with diet control, drugs and fluid therapy, you will eventually see at least some of the symptoms on the following list. Not all cats will exhibit all symptoms.
