A quick update on Gotham...

As recommended by the vet, I took my handsome boy in for more tests (thanks to Sam for driving us, so I could try to keep him a little bit calm on the way to/from the appointment).

Turns out, according to the tests: in addition to his kidney issues, Gotham has hypertension as well. We’re starting him on a prescription for the hypertension and the new special prescription food for the kidney stuff. Fingers-crossed this stuff works. He’s too handsome to be sick. I’m so thankful he’s not in any discomfort and probably doesn’t know anything is amiss. The vet caught most of it so early, he probably just feels a little run down.  We’ll adjust.

Not that we’ve got much of a choice, this is our new reality...me trying to give him heart pills and food most cats hate. Yay? How do you give a cat a pill?
