Toru Miyazaki gave 11 cats with advanced kidney disease an experimental injection. 15 others didn’t get it. A year later, 9 of the 11 treated cats were alive. Only 3 of the 15 untreated cats survived. He just filed for approval, and the drug fixes a defect only cats have.
Most cats die from one thing: their kidneys fail. By age 10, 4 in 10 cats already have chronic kidney disease, and by age 15, the rate doubles to 8 in 10. Once diagnosed, a cat has about 2 years left.
The reason kidney disease hits cats so hard is a broken protein in their blood. All mammals carry a protein that helps the kidneys clean out waste. In humans and dogs, the protein floats freely and goes to work when the kidneys are in trouble. In cats, it stays stuck to another protein and can’t get loose. So the waste piles up, and the kidneys eventually give out.
Miyazaki originally found the protein in 1999, back when he was at the University of Tokyo. He figured out the cat-specific glitch in 2015. The paper he published in the Veterinary Journal in February laid out the trial. The injection is a working version of the missing protein. His company, the Institute for AIM Medicine, filed the approval paperwork with Japan’s Ministry of Agriculture on April 24, 2026. If the review clears, the drug goes on sale in spring 2027.
The 30-year lifespan figure in the tweet is Miyazaki’s own projection of what cats could reach without kidney disease. The trial only ran a year, and the average cat today lives 15. Most die from the same disease this injection treats.
The research almost died in 2020. After running out of funding during COVID, Miyazaki went public. Cat owners across Japan responded by sending in 300 million yen, around 2 million dollars total. He resigned from the University of Tokyo and worked on the drug full time. The treatment in front of regulators today exists because cat lovers refused to let the research die.

You know what’s crazy? People are ignoring the ending.
Hughie and Annie, considered heroes and are free to live their lives, and they even have a baby on the way.

Vought no longer holds the same level of power over the world
Calling all of this “trash” just because Homelander didn’t level cities or massacre thousands of people is crazy

“Nigeria happened to me yesterday after I was going home from work. Police arrested me, my colleague, and other people around us at 8 a.m., took my phone, and drove us to the police station. They said they were raiding the area. They didn’t find any illegal substances on me. When I asked why they arrested me, they slapped me. They put me in a cell with other men. They told me to bring ₦200,000. I had to beg for ₦100,000 for me and my colleague, and they made us sign a statement saying they didn’t extort us. I’m traumatized.”
