Abstract: There are many misconceptions on the nutritional management of the dog or cat with liver disease. With progressive liver damage metabolic function also becomes compromised that could ultimately result in liver failure. Important physiological functions of the liver include intermediary metabolism of nutrients (carbohydrates, lipids and proteins), coagulation, storage (vitamin K), bilirubin and xenobiotic (drug) metabolism.
