Actually I think it is the carbs in commercial cat food that are hard on their kidneys but I'm hot certain. Also an all dry food diet. One of my cats is allergic to grain so I use a grain free food for both of them. It has more protein which is supposed to be more like a cats ancestral diet. They get some wet and some dry food.

Yes I agree. Years ago I wanted to change their food and barf them but my cats did not eat it no matter what I tried. Them I cooked for them, they did not want it.....When I will have kittens again I will make sure that they dont get used to the usual cat food.

I talked to the vet yesterday, Moritz and Paulinchen are okay so far except for the kidneys. They both suffer renal failure in the beginnings. Because it was found out so early the prognosis is good. Although this desease is incurable, with medicine and a special food they have a good chance to live with this illness for years. So, if you have cats that are older than 10 years please get them to the vet every 6 months for a check up. When they show signs of renal failure like for example drinking a lot or losing weight then usually about 50 % of the kidneys dont work anymore........When cats are older renal failure is one of the most often causes of death.
