https://www.vetsurgeon.org/f/clinical-questions/2405/tube-feeding-renal-failure-cats Hi all Does anyone have any recommendations on what food to use when feeding a hospitalised renal failure cat vi naso-oesophageal tube? We usually use RCW convalescence support, but would obviously prefer a more renal-friendly diet that is tubableen-USTelligent Community 10https://www.vetsurgeon.org/thread/4221?ContentTypeID=1Thu, 07 May 2009 22:56:48 GMT146601cc-3922-4be7-9974-7e1d4e45a66b:5ef815a9-e624-496e-a51e-770f57648c5djames hunt<p>I suppose you could always try mixing a phosphate binder in powder form with the convalescence diet?</p> <p>James Hunt</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://www.vetsurgeon.org/thread/4050?ContentTypeID=1Wed, 29 Apr 2009 14:15:46 GMT146601cc-3922-4be7-9974-7e1d4e45a66b:4ad258da-4551-425d-bf7f-2b226c9bbeccEmma Jarratt<p>Yeah, thats what I was thinking.
