You found Greystone as a stray.

It is possible he didn't get the proper nutrition in the first weeks of his life and that could have caused him the problems he had later on.

I found his mother (Spunky), him, his brother (G.W. (Dubya)), and sister (Whitey) in my backyard next to the garage 5 years ago this May 12th. Saw them in the headlights of my truck as I pulled up. I figure the kittens were 4 weeks old at the time give or take. I guess it is possible that something like you said could have happened to Greystone early in life. The vet seems to think maybe his kidneys didn't fully develop but it took this time for it to manifest itself. Then again, like people, each cat is an individual and might have some weaknesses that can bring stuff like this on.
