Greycoat Research Expert Guidance for CKD Cats
With over 1,000 consultation cases worldwide, Greycoat Research provides expert-backed guidance for cats with chronic kidney disease (CKD), helping them maintain kidney health and manage the progression of CKD through data-driven care.
Dr. Toru Miyazaki was the first to uncover the mechanism behind cat CKD.
Greycoat Research is guided by a team of experts dedicated to advancing feline kidney care.
- Dr. Toru Miyazaki, a leading authority on AIM research, has been instrumental in developing innovative approaches to CKD management.
- Dr. Kim Jae-young, a Korean veterinarian, gained recognition for his exceptional care of Minky, the longest-living cat in Korea at 28 years old.
- Dr. Kobayashi Motoo, a Japanese veterinarian with over 30 years of clinical experience, was the first to apply AIM in feline kidney treatment.
Their combined expertise helps shape effective CKD care solutions for cats worldwide.
Haim, a 13-year-old spayed female cat, was diagnosed with CKD in October 2022. One of her kidneys was completely damaged, while the other was in late-stage CKD. In March 2024, she began AIM-based care to help slow disease progression and improve her well-being.

Haim’s Health Improvements
Haim began AIM supplementation in March and showed significant improvements in kidney function by April.
| Health Metric | Before | After | Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| Creatinine (CREA) | 4.6 | 2.9 | Decreased (better kidney waste filtration) |
| BUN Levels | 99 | 73 | Decreased (reduced nitrogen waste buildup) |
| Phosphorus Levels | 5.4 | 6.3 | Slight Increase (monitor phosphorus management) |
How Did Haim Improve?
Energy & Activity
- Showed increased energy levels after AIM supplementation.
- Became more responsive and engaged in daily activities.
- Displayed improved movement and willingness to interact.
Weight & Appetite
- Appetite remained stable throughout the supplementation period.
Appearance & Other Changes
- Used to lack hind leg strength to the point where she couldn't stand, walk, sit, or even use the litter box properly, but could move around with ease after AIM supplementation.
Supplement Adjustments
- Dr. Toru Protocol was introduced in March at a carefully managed dosage.
Haim's creatinine and BUN levels decreased significantly within 1 month of AIM supplementation, stabilizing her kidney condition. Given her history of severe kidney damage, these improvements were remarkable. Her owner noted that despite the challenges of CKD, Haim maintained better energy levels and a stable appetite throughout the supplementation period.
In the months following her AIM care, Haim sadly passed away due to pulmonary issues unrelated to her CKD. Her owner expressed deep gratitude for the additional time spent with Haim in better spirits, as she remained energetic and engaged until her final days. Greycoat Research honors Haim’s memory and remains committed to helping cats like her maintain the best possible quality of life.
Testimonial from Haim’s Owner
"Haim had been battling CKD for years, and I feared I was running out of options. When I started AIM care, I wasn’t sure what to expect, but within a month, her creatinine and BUN levels dropped! She became more energetic and engaged, which gave me hope and reassurance that I was giving her the best care possible. Watching her regain her spirit and activity brought immense relief.
Even though she is no longer with me, I will always be grateful for the extra time AIM care gave us. I hope her story can help other cats facing similar struggles, so more owners know there is hope. I truly believe that Dr. Toru Protocol played a role in managing her CKD, and I plan to use it to support another cat in my care with similar symptoms. Thank you to Greycoat Research for their guidance and help."
