I'm still writing this site. Some guides aren't finished yet, and the ones that are may still change.

It's late. You just got the news. Take a breath.

Your cat has chronic kidney disease. I'm going to walk you through this.

I'm Dr. Steve Pelton. I've been a veterinarian for 26 years, in solo practice, and I built this for my own clients first.

I've had kidney cats of my own. I know this part.

Once somebody names them, they stop being a verdict.

Fluids, food, a calendar on the fridge, fresh water.

End of the story

This is where the numbered path picks up.

On the real landing page, scene 6 hands straight to step 1 of the trail. Everything from here down stays a plain, fast, readable site.

Scene 1, Night and Scene 5, Morning are built.
Scenes 2, 3 and 4 have their copy and their light, and their artwork is still to come. The art placeholders render nothing rather than a grey box, same rule as the photo slots.
Skip button is live from the first frame. It rides the story and leaves with it.
Turn on Reduce Motion in your phone settings and reload: the same six scenes become six static frames, nothing moves.
