Can kidney disease and failure be prevented?
There is no prevention of kidney disease but there are things that can be done to reduce the risk. Yearly vaccinations reduce the risk of certain kidney infections. You should remove toxins (poisonous plants, anti-freeze, cleaning items) from your pet’s environment. Know what’s normal behaviour for your pet and watch for the signs of kidney or bladder problems including excessive thirst, frequent urination, straining to urinate, more urine formed than normal or no urine.
