Artemis finished her antibiotics a couple of days ago, so we got a urine sample and took it to the vet yesterday.

cattitude talked to the vet this morning. The good news is, there's no more protein in her urine, so no more antibiotics. The bad news is that the kidney problem is "chronic, irreversible, and untreatable": at some point, she will die of it. She's 16, and this isn't an "n months to live" situation, but it's still not good. What we're supposed to do is take her to the vet every six months, from now on, instead of every year; and keep her on the special KD catfood and minimal or no other treats.
She seems fine and happy, jumps onto laps and all that. Nonetheless, we've had better days.
