    Re:aged maine coon

    I agree it does seem as if it could be renal or teeth,teeth being the easy one to deal with,also agree that bloods should be done to narrow things down,I always tend to get mine blood checked anyway when they get to middle age & seem off colour for no reason,if it comes back clear good if not hopefully you catch problems at the start but I have to say if I couldn't get fluids into my animals by mouth to keep them hydrated then they would be straight down to the vets day or night for them to inject them either sub cut or put onto a drip.
    I always have the equivalant of animal hydration sachets in my animal first aid kit, as they help replace the electrolyte balance the same as for us & can be very handy in cases of diarrhoea or vomiting.....
