Kidney failure probably meant that the cat couldn't excrete enough salt in its urine, so its sweat was saltier. Deer like "salt licks".
This doesn't mean the story is any less touching, because the animals must still have accepted each other in a very unusual way.

There's one problem with your theory. Cats can't sweat.

I didn't know that cats could sweat... also, could the deer really get to the sweat through the fur?

Someone always knows the most likely reason for the story and it only took 4 posts to get to it...this is why it is good to hang out on FR at least 2-3 times a week...it makes you smarter.

Cats don't sweat, they pant to keep cool.
