NOTE: Just because it's so important AND so confusing, I'm posting this reminder for those of you with CRF cats. CRF cats must be closely monitored for high phosphorus,and low potassium. MOST symptoms of weakness, or wobbliness in CRF cats are in direct relation to their potassium levels! Correct Pottassium balance provides a MUCH better quality of life for CRF cats!
Normal Phosphorus Range (Anetech Lab): 2.4 - 8.2   (CRF cats should be stay around 4 and treat at 6)
Normal Potassium Range (Anetech Lab): 3.4 - 5.6
