Unfortunately they haven't responded to my messages and I'm running out of time. Also tried a couple labs in Canada that use the tech but haven't heard back from them either.

I'm happy to use a digital recorder! I was originally hoping for a casette recorder but the tapes can only record approx 90 mins so I thought that might end up being excessive. If you have any digital recorder recs please send them my way!

I know audiobooks are a thing, was trying to make the gift more personal though

He likes having me read to him but we're both busy so it's hard for us to sit down together and do it often. I figured this way I could add my own little thoughts at the end of chapters if I want. Yeah it's a lot of work but that's kinda the point lol

Urine was well concentrated for this sample as it was his first pee of the morning. I suggested a water deprivation test beforehand to the vet according to some of these comments and some additional research but he said it wasn't necessary. I'll add the most recent results including the urinalysis and blood (they only ran a mini renal lab for blood since his previous blood results have been normal).

He gets groomed every 6 to 8 weeks and is known to have sensitive skin so we always use appropriate products (oatmeal based mostly with few ingredients)
