Hypoglycemia and chronic renal failure in a cat

TL;DRAbstract

Spontaneous hypoglycemia developed in a 9-year-old cat with chronic renal failure. Resulting seizures stopped after intravenous administration of glucose, but the cat died within 10 hours. This case and reports in human beings suggest that hypoglycemia should be considered in any cat with chronic renal failure that experiences sudden deterioration in mental status or begins having seizures.
