Why I Don’t Use Prescription Kidney Diets
Dr. Randy Aronson, a practicing 43-year integrative veterinarian, joins the Two Crazy Cat Ladies to kick off a four-part series based on his CATS framework — Complete Nutrition, Activity, Teeth, and Stress Reduction. In this first episode, he dives deep into why kibble may be one of the biggest drivers of chronic inflammation in cats, breaks down the food hierarchy from fresh whole food to freeze-dried and air-dried options, and explains why AAFCO standards simply aren't enough. He also reveals why small bowel lymphoma is on the rise, which proteins to avoid for cats with inflammatory disease, and how to read a cat food label like a pro.
The conversation goes further into the gut microbiome — what it is, why it matters, and how tools like AnimalBiome testing and fecal microbiome transfer (FMT) can reverse conditions like IBD, chronic skin disease, and even behavioral issues in cats. Dr. Randy also covers kidney disease nutrition (and why he doesn't use prescription diets), the danger of over-vaccination, VDI Labs' advanced diagnostic blood tests, and simple at-home steps like goat kefir and avoiding unnecessary antibiotics. If you want to give your cat a longer, healthier life — this episode is your starting point.
