From Chenko’s Guardian
Chenko is a 12-year-old cat who has lived with several health conditions—including heart disease, pancreatitis, and diabetes.
Last spring, his energy began to drop, and he often struggled with vomiting and digestive upset.
Seeing these changes, I decided to focus on steady, structured care to help him feel more comfortable day by day.
Starting the Routine
In August 2024, we began a daily care plan that included the Dr. Toru Protocol, Intensive Protocol, probiotics, and omega-3 supplements, alongside his ongoing veterinary management and diet adjustments.
Over time, his appetite remained steady, and his activity level slowly returned to his usual rhythm.
We continued to monitor his condition through regular checkups and bloodwork.
Health Observations
| Health Metric | August 2024 | October 2024 | Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| Creatinine (CRE) | 1.6 | 1.5 | Within stable range during follow-up care |
| BUN Levels | 26 | 25 | Steady at follow-up |
| Phosphorus Levels | 4.5 | 4.1 | Gradual shift toward balance under routine monitoring |
| Weight | 4.9 kg | 4.9 kg | Maintained healthy range |
During this period, his vomiting and diarrhea occurred less frequently, and his litter box habits became more consistent.
His coat also appeared smoother, and he seemed calmer and more interactive at home.
Daily Life and Condition
Chenko began exploring the house again, spending more time on his cat tower and showing interest in his surroundings.
He continued eating well, maintaining steady weight and balanced energy.
Our veterinarian guided us on how to gradually reduce his steroid dosage while monitoring his inflammation levels.
What I Felt as a Guardian
For a long time, I worried every day about Chenko’s condition—especially when he had multiple symptoms at once.
Through this process, I learned that consistency and observation matter more than quick results.
Seeing him rest peacefully, eat well, and interact again has been the greatest reassurance.
Looking Ahead
Chenko continues to live with gentle energy and calm stability.
We plan to keep following the same routine under veterinary guidance, focusing on hydration, diet, and steady daily care.
