Kidney failure, also known as renal failure, can be caused by a number of reasons. There are two types of kidney failure in a cat - acute renal failure and chronic kidney failure.
Acute Renal crisis?
e.g Pyelonephritis - is an infection from the bladder to the kidneys, the condition can get worse. It can trigger severe back pain, nausea, vomiting, and, in rare cases, kidney damage. Nephritis (inflammed kidneys). It can happen in cats of any age and typically results from poisons, disorders, diseases, organ failure, and certain types of drug medications. Recomendation: Nephro 19-2 formula and Kidney Microbial 42 formula.
Chronic Kidney Failure
the kidneys gradually stop working over a longer period of time and lose the ability to filter the blood of toxins. This type of kidney failure can lead to total kidney failure. This condition can happen in a older cat over the age of 9, who has been feed dry food most of their lives. * Recomendation: to be on the safe side start adding the Kidney Microbial 42 formula to daily meals - with or without having a infection in bladder or kidneys yet.

Formula 6
Common Salt (Natrum Muriaticum 30X) (traditionally used in order to help distribute the water evenly throughout the body, sending it where it is needed at a given moment. e.g dryness causing difficult stools - constipation extra supply will go to this area in the colon. Nat Mur is rehydrating at the cellular level, as a fluid Balancer. Without Nat Mur cell division and normal growth cannot proceed. Another important function of Nat Mur is the production of hydrochloric acid. Too little acid means slow digestion and when the body’s fluids become too acidic, minerals are pulled out of bones and tissues to compensate. Above all Nat Mur restores the fluid balance our cells need daily)
Phosphate of Soda (Nat Phos 12X) (traditionally used for as a liquid to balance the acidic - alkaline mixtures in the body, as kidney failure pets tend to get too acidic)
Sodium Sulphate (Nat Sulph12X) (traditionally used for a Eliminator or excess fluid in the body. As long as it is sufficient, the liquids will be removed. When it is lacking, however, the body has to produce fever and sweating in order to remove it - any condition where there is a profuse loss of fluids (or sweating), may be an imbalance of this salt)
Chloride of magnesium (Magnesium Mur 30C) (traditionally used to help magnesium in the loop of a henley. Aids absorption in needed areas - colon)
A pet or animal may feel so thirsty or dry that he or she feels the need to drink huge quantity of water, only to feel physically full, but still wanting more! Single herb Bryonia will bring the fluid deprived body back to balance, allowing the water to become officious and to restore order to the cellular structure of the body, struggling from lack of fluid)
Note: People and Pets with CKD commonly have low albumin levels because of the loss of protein (albumin) in urine. Low albumin levels can result in swelling of the feet or hands, fatigue, loss of appetite and dry/itchy skin.
The Astragalus herb has been shown to increase albumin levels in the blood so may help with reducing the symptoms caused by low albumin. Reference: https://www.kidneycoach.com/herbal-medicine/astragalus-and-its-role-in-chronic-kidney-disease?
