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.
Laura, a 16-year-old spayed female Turkish Angora, had a history of thyroid issues and declining kidney health. An ultrasound revealed that one of her kidneys had shrunk significantly and lost function. Concerned about her condition, her owner sought a new approach and introduced Dr. Toru Protocol and Intensive Protocol for 1 month.

Testimonial from Laura’s Owner
"Laura has always been a strong cat, but as she got older, I started to notice her slowing down and losing weight. When I heard about AIM care, I was hopeful but cautious. After just a month, her appetite improved, and she even gained back some of the weight she had lost! One thing that surprised me was how much easier her most recent blood test was—her vet had always struggled to draw blood, but not this time! I’m so grateful for the support from Greycoat Research, and I hope that more cats like Laura can benefit from AIM care."

CKD is a progressive and irreversible disease that gradually impairs kidney function. Because many cats show no symptoms until significant damage has occurred, early detection and management is key to delaying its progression and preserving quality of life.
Greycoat Research has provided consultations for over 1,000 cats, with 97% of stage 2 and 3 cats showing improved kidney health after following our tailored management plans. If your cat has been diagnosed with CKD or has high creatinine levels, taking action now can lead to lasting improvements.
