for my middle aged cat with kidney disease. She said eating is most important, so give them what they like. She also feels that all meat foods are best for organ health and weight retention. She gave me a list, if you’d like to PM me, I can get it to you.

Water is important too. One good thing I’ve found is to add water to the soft food and mix it into a slurry. Maybe he’ll like that 😊

Best of luck to you
