Cat Lovers Rejoice As New Medicine Will Extend Cat Lifespan To 30 Years - eviltoast

there is a silent threat that affects kitties – chronic kidney disease. It is a complex and irreversible ailment that typically manifests at around 10 years old in cats, affecting an astounding 1 in 3 felines. As cats age, they gradually lose their kidney function, which significantly compromises their quality of life.

Dr. Miyazaki’s breakthrough comes in the form of the “AIM” injection. It’s a medication that has demonstrated an astounding potential to help kitties suffering from chronic kidney disease. The scientist and his team pinpointed the root cause of this treacherous ailment, which paved the way for the development of the injection.

The “AIM” injection is currently in the clinical trial phase and is anticipated to be available by 2025.

    Sadly, my cat passed last year from kidney issues.

    But maybe this can be a thing for my next cat (whenever that is).

      I have an 18yo with kidney issues. If this is accurate I’ll be talking to my vet soon. Well within the next couple years.
