Do you have a cat 7 years of age or older? 🐱🐾

We are recruiting cats with chronic kidney disease (any stage!) AND healthy cats age 7 or older for a biomarker, DNA and microbiome clinical trial.

The study offers blood work, urinalysis, and ultrasounds throughout a year for CKD cats and healthy cats also get complete diagnostic blood work, urinalysis and urinary ultrasound free of charge as well.

We are trying to better understand and identify biomarkers that are unique to cats with chronic kidney disease to better diagnose and treat them.
