Blackie came to us as an elderly cat because his owner could no longer keep him. We estimate his age to be around 12 years old. Over the last few months, we noticed that his balance was off. The vet observed some growths in his ear, which she believed extended into his inner ear. Due to his age and the associated risks, surgery was deemed risky. Additionally, he shows signs of kidney problems, so he was put on Pronefra, which helps support normal kidney function and health.
