repair mechanisms such as connective tissue formation lead to further, partially self-sustaining destruction of functional kidney tissue. The reduced ability of the kidneys to excrete sodium and water causes retention (medicine) of these substances and thus an increase in blood volume, which ultimately leads to an increase in blood pressure. About two thirds of all cats with CNE are affected. High blood pressure in turn leads to increased connective tissue formation. A potassium deficiency or excess calcium secondary to other kidney damage also causes further damage to the kidney tissue.

In a clinical study by Elliott et al. 34% of cats could not be switched to the renal diet and in Plantinga et al. the figure was as high as 54%. An attempt can be made to increase the acceptability of the feed by warming it or by adding tasty additives such as tuna juice or sardines. It is therefore recommended to start the feed change only after the uraemia has been eliminated and to extend it over three weeks by gradually mixing it in to avoid feed aversion.

Calcitriol can also be used to treat secondary hyperparathyroidism, but only if parathyroid hormone and calcium levels are monitored. For cats in the early stages with normal blood phosphate levels, a less phosphate-reduced diet ("Senior", "Early-Renal" or a mixture of kidney and normal food) is usually sufficient.

Due to the different type of diet and the resulting metabolic peculiarities, the clinical picture and treatment sometimes differ significantly from 1535:

In this case, staging should be based on the higher value and the determination should be repeated after two to four weeks.
