Reply #28: Should asymptomatic pets who ate some still be tested?

[NAO]

Thanks for all the info and sympathy. Without your posts most of us would likely still be completely in the dark. It's wonderful that you took time out from your (most likely overwhelmed) practice to post info here. Thank you.

Do you think pets who (most likely, we don't have the containers to check codes) ate a small amount of the food but who are currently asymptomatic be tested for kidney function?

I think many vets are poo-pooing this, under the motive of "not wanting to start a panic", but I'm afraid for my pets, esp my older Maltese who got horrible diarrhea (resolved in 2 days, was 2 months ago) right after we got our kitten and he ate some of the cat food. I don't want CRF 6 months down the road.
