What should creatine values be in a feline with renal failure?

Answer by  icyblue (236)

Cats can have a slightly higher serum creatinine value when compared to humans. In humans values of 1. 5 mg/dL will get you worried, while in cats values of up to 2 mg/dL (even up to 2. 5) can be normal. A sudden rise in the value is not good!

Has your cat got acute renal failure or chronic renal failure. While creatine values in both these conditions will be abnormally high, the way the doc treats your cat will be different. In chronic renal failure, the trend in creatine values determines whether your cat is getting worse.

I can tell you what the creatinine levels for a healthy cat should be: 1. 0-2. 2 mg/dl (88. 4-194. 5 umol/L. If your kitty has levels that aren't in this range then that is a factor the Doctor looked at to determine the renal failure diagnosis.
