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.

@funnypeachh @ma1ybe The claim of bad hygiene is outright silly and hypocritical, on that point I agree. My original point still stands.

@Painful_Liberty @heavensbvnny Hate to be the one to tell you but men often perpetuate this by calling the male victims lucky or saying they shouldn't have spoken out. It is very much a societal issue that we allow many make and female pedophiles off too easy

@heavensbvnny That's not true I've brought up the increasing number of women guilty of pedophilia and the lack of punishment that they receive for that pedophilia..... Instead of calling it rape they call it inappropriate sexual relations... I don't know it seems like a rather urgent issue

Some of the urgent issues raised by women: • Rape • Sexual violence • Domestic and gender-based violence • Forced marriage • Human trafficking • Femicide Some of the “issues” raised by men: • Girlfriend cheating • Why men always have to pay for dates • Women get free drinks • Men get rejected so much • Wife choosing to divorce and taking her share • “I paid for her drinks and she didn’t sleep with me”

@ma1ybe Men don't force women to shave, women in the western world have conditioned men to expect them to be hairless. Some women can't take accountability for what they choose to do to themselves.

@feederofcats -her due to her dying of a kidney disease, but she showed me a love I never knew. Please always give shelter cats/old cats a chance. They might not be designer cats but they will love you just the same

@feederofcats A few years ago I wanted a kitten and went to shelters specifically looking for one. I ended up falling in love with an elderly cat that was dumped after 9 years with the people who adopted her as a kitten. It's been two years without her and she's been gone longer than I had-

there is no such thing as ethical breeding and there is no excuse to support cat breeding. You cannot say you are an advocate for cat welfare or rescue if you support breeding. Just want to make that clear 🫶🏼

I've been informed he was coming out of anesthesia and still pretty asleep but he heard the crinkle of someone else's churu and sprung awake and went insane until they gave him some so I think he's feeling alright

Dweeb is out of surgery! 😅 They were able to get plates on both sides of his jaw! It was a very long and intricate surgery, his blood pressure got a little dicey during it so they're keeping him overnight to monitor. I get to pick him up in the morning 🥹
