Here's a cat breed I hadn't heard of -- sure sounds sweet and cuddly:

That's a gorgeous cat! Sadly, our Maine Coone cat, Maia, has kidney disease now. She is 14, and still doing OK, but I don't know how long that will last. We're feeding her special food, Purina NF (for kidney function), but not doing anything else right now. I've talked to the vet a couple of different times, but she doesn't seem to be very proactive in terms of any treatment to support the kidney function. I'd done some research, and it seems that there are some medications and supplements that may help slow the progress of the disease, but she wasn't too helpful. I guess I'll need to do some vet shopping.

Top pic on the right looks like my previous cat.
