Carrie and Tala: BFF

Last night, Schataje collapsed. I immediately rushed her to the emergency vet, where she spent the night and also is there all day today. Last night, Schataje was in acute renal failure, but today she is stabilized and has been diagnosed with chronic renal failure. The vet thinks that she may have a few months or up to a year left before her kidneys give out completely. She has already lost about 75% of her kidney function.

Tonight when I go to pick her up at the vet, I will learn how to give her Subcutaneous Fluid Therapy at home and we will make plans for her diet and how to make her last few months happy.
