Cats with poor kidney function can eat pumpkin. Eating pumpkin has no effect on the kidneys. Feeding a small amount of pumpkin to cats is good for the cat’s health, but if the owner feeds pumpkin to the cat for a long time, the cat may suffer from malnutrition, weight loss, diarrhea, etc. Therefore, the owner needs to be careful when feeding pumpkin and other vegetables to the cat. Pay attention to the feeding amount, and try to feed your cat vegetables, fruits, snacks and other foods two to three hours after eating its staple food.

What should cats pay attention to when eating a diet with poor kidney function:

1. Cats with poor kidney function need to reduce protein intake and choose low-protein, low-fat, and low-fat diets. Eat salty and low-phosphorus foods to avoid the burden of kidney metabolism.

2. In addition to kidney prescription food, you can also eat a small amount of chicken breast. The protein content of a small amount of chicken breast is not particularly high, and at the same time it can supplement the cat's demand for protein and other nutrients and provide the body with sufficient energy. And clean and fresh drinking water should be provided to allow cats to increase energy.

3. For cats with poor kidney function, the balance of water in the body is very important. Therefore, it is best to feed foods with high water content to ensure sufficient water in the cat's body. Canned food is a good choice. Although the protein and phosphorus content in canned food is relatively high, it is very palatable and most cats like to eat it. It can also replenish the water and energy the cat needs.

4. Poor kidney function in cats can also lead to anemia and reduced potassium concentration in the blood. Therefore, cats can be fed some foods that replenish blood and increase blood potassium.
