Graham asked:


Our 15 year old cat was recently diagnosed with kidney disease. She is now not eating (4 days) and not drinking (1 day), is very frail, occasional tremors, glassy eyed, doesn’t close her eyes just stares, very weak in hind quarters and droopy head. She doesn’t seem to be in pain and seems to want to be near the family at all times. How much longer will she hang on?
