Acute vs. Chronic Kidney Failure in Cats. Kidney failure falls into two main categories: acute and chronic. Acute kidney failure is an abrupt onset of kidney damage, usually the result of toxins, infection or shock. Felines may present with a sudden onset of vomiting, weakness and dehydration.
Causes. Acute kidney failure can occur when: 1  You have a condition that slows blood flow to your kidneys. 2  You experience direct damage to your kidneys. 3  Your kidneys' urine drainage tubes (ureters) become blocked and wastes can't leave your body through your urine.
