Article Synopsis
- The study evaluated urine protein-to-creatinine (UPC) values in 112 cats, split between healthy cats on annual check-ups and sick cats showing signs of chronic kidney disease (CKD).
- Results showed that 54.5% of the cats had increased UPC values, indicating borderline proteinuria or proteinuria, with higher rates among sick cats.
- The findings suggest that UPC measurement is vital for detecting and managing CKD, even in apparently healthy cats during routine health checks, regardless of their age.
