Blood work back: no diabetes, no thyroid issues but maybe kidney issues in the long run.

I've lost Hillary, Cleo and Tapestry to it and the exgf's cats also had kidney problems. But Groucho is 18, I'd be happy if 'long run' is a concept that applies to him.

Yup. According to my vet it's a very common old-age affliction. Sort of like the equivalent of heart disease in humans, statistically.
Now, if the cat's young and isn't getting enough water, then that's another issue altogether.
